long realty: Tucson Moves...Is it Time to sell Your Home?? - 11/11/20 03:51 AM
I was looking at my archive of real estate transactions this week, wondering what the value was of some of my early buyers' homes. I had to go in four years before someone STILL lived in their original home. I thought that was interesting. In fact, of all the transactions I did for home buyers from 2005 through 2010, only FIVE still own those home. Tucson...moves.
So, back to my project. I ran a quick scan using a Long Realty tool available on my web page that gives you three market projections of value - of course, estimate only. https://cara.longrealty.com/?p=homevaluesreport

When I was young, err...younger, my mother had a phrase that became one of those life habits.  To paraphrase,

Unfortunately, that's very true.  And, right now, there are a whole lot of folks living in metropolitan Tucson needing our help.

When I initially talk teams with my clients, I first address the relationship between you and me.  After all, communication is KING and facilitates the many moving parts in any Real Estate transaction.
I like to identify best time of day, phone, text or email, and so forth.  We talk about holidays.  Work weeks. After hour communications.  I share that I love a paper trail and don't expect you to remember all of the details that I find so riveting.  So, I'll send a recap of most conversations just for the record.
But there's even more to a team than meets the eye.

I did a quick search this morning, May 24, 2020 of available horse properties and ranches within Tucson "proper".  That is to say, I didn't go beyond the Tucson Mountains out into rural Marana to the West, stayed north of Corono de Tucson and Sahuarita to the south, or didn't go beyond Saddlebrooke to the North.  For this search,  I stayed fairly close to town limits, as most of the folks who've contacted me for a horse property wanted to be within 20 minutes of "amenities".
