As of August 2026, we analyzed 1,051 active for-sale homes in Buckeye, Arizona. The typical listing is priced at $424,000 and is projected to generate about $42,105 a year as a short-term rental.

After setting aside an estimated 20% for operating costs, an estimated 56.8% of those homes could still cover an investor mortgage payment on short-term-rental income — roughly in line with the 52.5% median across the 200 major metros we track, ranking Buckeye #81 of 200 for cash-flow potential.

On market momentum: homes in Buckeye sit a median of 64 days on the market, and 29% of active listings came on in just the last 30 days — a steadily paced market, which shapes how much room there is to negotiate.

For a DSCR loan — which qualifies on the property's rental income rather than your personal income — that's a relatively healthy setup: in Buckeye, a meaningful share of listings throw off enough short-term-rental income, after costs, to cover an estimated investor mortgage payment.

What actually works in Buckeye

Share of those listings clearing an DSCR of 1.25, by price and bedroom count. The smaller figure is the median DSCR for that group.

Darker means a larger share of that group cash-flows. “—” means fewer than 8 active listings — too few to draw a conclusion from.
