The over one million market is busy with houses priced right selling in 60 days or less.  Those that are priced too high are just sitting until the price is lowered to the market.

My mls listing # 4663700 is listed at 1 million in Glenn Moor with 11 seating areas with views of Troon Mountain, Pinnacle Peak, City Lights is getting showings daily. The home sits on the 11th fairway of Troon and is guarded gated with tennis, clubhouse and optional membership in the prestigeous Troon Country Club.It will sell in much less than 60 days as it it priced against a home at 1.395 million with far less views. 

The high end inventory is low and the prices are low on the homes that will purchased this season. A cold winter up north and east will make demand high all winter as Arizona remains the one place with perfect weather most of the fall, winter and spring months.

The Scottsdale Air Fair this weekend kicks off the Fall activities which are non-stop through April 2012.

Countering the materialists, Christian and not

For 2,000 years, Christians have believed that man has a spiritual soul and is therefore unique among terrestrial creatures--that there is in the words of Pople John Paul II, an ontological discontinuity between human beings and other animals. This belief is now under attack and not only by atheists. Some theologians dismiss the idea of an immortal soul as an unbiblical bit of Greek metaphysics grafted onto the Gospel by the earlyChurch Fathers. Some even go so far as to call themselves "Christian materialists"

These are symptoms of a loss of confidence in the face of a materialist critique that many think unanswerable. A whole series of advances in human knowledge have been seen as supporting a physicalist reductionism that would explain man entirely in terms of matter and thereby erase the the line between human and animal, and even between human and machine.

This article is worth searching out --- Tish
 

 

 

 

 

Parc Central Restaurant and Lounge opened at Scottsdale Quarter and offers a slick interior with organic overtones in a fresh and open space. Under Executive Chef Chad Burnett, the restaurant will feature a “progressive American menu” focusing on market fresh and in-season items. In addition, the venue has a lounge and serves cocktails and appetizers until 2 a.m.

And last, but not least, word on the street is that the revived Pink Pony in Scottsdale is set to open during the weekend of Parada del Sol. The 58th annual parade takes place in Old Town Scottsdale and starts at 10 a.m., Feb. 12. Hopefully, the Pony’s menu will still feature a steak, with a baked potato and salad with blue cheese dressing. Classic.

Warning - Check your bills carefully -- I do not and may have cost me thousands!

 

Checked my bill for December thru January 10 found a charge to LRR   -- never heard of that  so called AX. To make a long story shorter --- my card was duplicated -- and run through the charge machine on at least 4 occassions over the last 4 months -- charges found added up to near 1,700.  

The Fraud Division of AX was great but they were only able to go back 4 months. Who knows how long this has been going on?

 

AX overnighted a new card and reversed the charges.

 

Happy New Year!  2011 wil be a great One!

Buyer Market continues with Land Values regressing to 2002-2004 prices.  During that time, an acre in the best areas was

The buyer today is looking for smaller house with all the features and view of the home selling for 800-1000 dollars a square foot in 2007 -- Now they want 4,500 to 6,500 square feet at a price of 250 to 325 dollars a square foot.

Oh - don't forget -- beautiful view, new construction (within the last 5 years). close in location, near good schools,
4-6 bedrooms, 5-7 bathrooms, gas, solar, green features, 4 car garage minimum, pool, spa, one level preferred,
not a Tuscan design. Casita/guest compound included in the bedroom/bath count.

Spanish/Santa Barbara designs with good integration of sky are preferred.




 

 

 

I recently received new market statistics for Maricopa County, Arizona which is always interesting to look over. Our market continues to be dominated by distressed properties such as REO and short sale transactions. Bank owned properties are 44% of our market sales, while short sales have decreased a bit as they make up 18% of the market. Standard 'retail' sales make up the rest at 38%. As you can see by our market, it is imperative to continue to remain educated and well versed in selling these types of distressed properties. We're having success with short sales although they continue to take time and patience from all parties to get them to the closing table. With the holidays approaching, I hope all families can enjoy a warm home over their head and a place for their family to call home. Maricopa County Statistics

 

Good Afternoon:  Recently I sent you a list of reasons why sellers should list during the holidays.  There are many good reasons why sellers should list now, such as low inventory, a more serious buyer pool, etc.  Once you have persuaded your seller that now is a better time to sell than April, the next question becomes, should they decorate their home for the holidays?  I was reading an article about this very subject on About.com and wanted to share it with you.  On the one hand, a decorated home feels more warm and inviting, and on the other, over-decorating may cause clutter and distract potential buyers from seeing the bones of the house.  It is important to consider both viewpoints and so I wanted to share this piece with you.  I hope you find it to be helpful as you get ready for a fantastic 2011.  Happy Holidays!

Should I Decorate My Listed Home For The Holidays?
Should you put out those blue and white candles and prominently display your menorah? What about hanging a wreath on your door or showcasing a Christmas tree in front of a window? What's overdoing it? What's not?
 
People carry biases and prejudices with them. Why give them more information than they need to know about you? By not decorating, you are protecting your privacy during home showings. You are also making your home feel more spacious without blocking pathways. When buyers enter your home, you want them to imagine putting their own furniture in each room, making it theirs, and they can't do that if your holiday decorations dominate the stage.
 
Holiday Decorating Compromises for Sellers
If you choose to decorate your home for the holidays, at least keep the decorations to a minimum. Don't block or cover up important selling features such as fireplace mantels, stairs, stained-glass windows.
  • Tone down the size of tree. In place of a 10-foot tree, try decorating a table-top, four-foot version.
  • Stack wrapped presents in a closet or in one corner.
  • Use more splashes of red than green because red is an emotionally appealing color.
  • Resist the urge to hang banners and use greenery instead such as evergreen or rosemary garlands.
  • Display centerpieces made from pine cones or other wintry pieces of nature.
  • Never leave candles burning unattended.
  • Set a plate of cookies on the counter, next to festive paper napkins for guests.
  • Simmer spicy apple cider on the stove, and set out cups and ladle.
