Scottsdale, Arizona is a unique residential real estate market in the Phoenix metro area.  It is best known for high-end real estate, Five-Star Resorts, top golf courses and large events such as the Phoenix Open and the Barrett-Jackson Car Auction.

While demand in other cities is affected by employment and affordability, demand in Scottsdale is affected more by stock portfolio performance, corporate profits and the availability of jumbo financing.  With much of Maricopa County’s demand centered around the distressed market, Scottsdale still holds its own with consistent demand despite the lack of foreclosure inventory available.

If you have any questions regarding this high-demand market, feel free to contact our Scottsdale Homes Team of experts.  Our office is located in the heart of Scottsdale (Gainey Ranch), and we stand ready to help guide you through your home selling/buying process.
