Scottsdale luxury real estate sales have seen a slight … (3 comments)

$175 million sale sets new U.S. residential sales recordMost expensive property for sale in Scottsdale, AZ: $ 16,400,000
(December, 2007)  The U. S. housing market overall may be suffering from the doldrums, but wealthy home buyers continue to invest in homes at the very top of the market.

scottsdale luxury real estate: Google Did It's Thing Again - 10/27/07 11:09 AM
Google re-indexed last night and as I looked at many of the real estate sites I was amazed at how many were down graded in Google's page rank.  They obviously changed their method of measuring sites once again.
This reinforces that chasing what you think Google is doing may be painful in the end.  Just use sound principles in organically optimizing your site and you will not have a bad day when Google does it's thing again.

scottsdale luxury real estate: Canadian Luxury Market goes from Hot to Hotter - 10/19/07 12:00 PM
Canadian luxury home activity gives new meaning to global warming - this part of the world is enjoying a hot upper tier market. 
The first seven months of this year have seen Canadian luxury home market sales jump in major markets from Victoria to Toronto.  "The consumer appetite for luxury property has been insatiable," says Michael Polzler, Executive Vice President and Regional Director, RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic Canada. "Unabated demand throughout the year has created tight market conditions in a number of blue chip neighborhoods.  Limited availability of product has, in turn, placed mounting pressure on housing values.  As a result, the million … (0 comments)

scottsdale luxury real estate: A broken fibula - Now what? - 10/08/07 10:20 AM
A crazy thing happened at Fitness Together on Saturday morning. 
My partner and spouse was performing an exercise that required her to step up on a two foot high bench and then step down with 15 lbs weights in her hand.  Toward the end of the exercise she lost her balance and fell breaking her fibula.  She is now in a split and we have to make arrangements to see an orthopedic surgeon today. 
This could of been avoided if her personal trainer had been close enough to help her get her balance back.   This will take Jane away from work … (2 comments)

scottsdale luxury real estate: How is the Home Market? - 10/05/07 02:11 PM

The question we get most often these days is, "How is the home market"?  My response is, "Where is your home located?"  If you haven't heard it before I'll share with you now that the real estate market is localized.  Is the market place the same across the USA.  Of course not.  We have places in the states today where real estate is appreciating at a nice rate and then other places that have a negative appreciation.   Can that same scenario apply to just a state like Arizona?  Yes, and it doesn't take an entire state to make that difference.  Maricopa county … (0 comments)
