In my attempt to provide you with “stats that matter”, here is my first edition and it is for Aviano at Desert Ridge. While I think it is fine to report how many homes closed in September or how many homes are active now, I want to get down to the nitty gritty for home buyers and sellers in Desert Ridge.
Below is a chart showing the 5 lowest price per square foot homes in Aviano. You can click on the image for a larger view.
I have outlined which of these are bank owned, short sales and there is even a regular seller in there. What does that mean? Well, the bank owned are ready to move and if you write an offer you will probably hear back in 3 days or so. I would be able to help you decide where I think the bank may accept at. The short sales can take up 2-3 months to respond. If you have nothing but time, these can be great deals. I can find out where the agent is in the short sale process and can also project at where the bank may approve at. The real seller - well that is a seller who is motivated and has positioned their property to move. If you need a 30 day close, there is probably a good chance this can happen here.
The Mirador on Expedition is a huge house, but it backs to Pinnacle Peak Road and it needs a little TLC. It is not horrible but you better LOVE slate and bring a paint brush. The back yard has a good start, but needs a little help with the lack of maintenance.
The Terraza on 37th place is a nice home and has been reduced again to $685k. This home has been modified so there are two master suites, one up and one down. The other bedrooms upstairs have been combined to make 2 large secondary bedrooms, each with there own bath. The problem is they took the 3rd bay of the garage to make the master suite downstairs. Many people at this size and price point are looking for 3 car garage. However, if this modified floorplan appeals to your lifestyle, there can be a great opportunity.
The Velez on 39th Way is very “vanilla” and it backs to 40th st. However, the price is right at $135 per square foot.
After starting out at $1,105,000 and 569 days on market, the owners of this Marisol on 36th Way appear ready to sell. This home sits on an oversized lot and backs to a wash. On 10/21 this was reduced from $699,00 to $619,000, where it sits now. Given the good condition of this home, I predict this to move quickly.
Lastly the Strada on Crest Lane is a short sale and is down to $475k. This is only a 2 car garage but does have a nicely landscaped backyard and spool. I believe the listings agents are close to an approval on this.
So, if you are bargain hunting - these are a good start. If you have a model in mind or certain criteria that you are looking for, give me a call at 480-201-4185 or send me an email and I will be able to send you info. I can also email you these 5 listings if you would like more info.
Stay tuned tomorrow - the 5 lowest priced homes in Aviano!
