Imagine my surprise to receive a Saturday evening contract for 52 acres of an off grid vacant land parcel zoned for horses and livestock.  Due to poor cell service on Sunday, I was alerted to a missed call that happened on Saturday. I returned the call on Sunday. The name was the same as was on the vacant land contract. I called the individual back, indicated I knew of the offer, but wanted this individual to know I do return phone calls. The buyer laughed, understood and then shared without any asking “Yes, I was driving around Golden Valley and saw the sign. That is why I called you. I have been working with a local agent.”The buyer then asked if I had received the offer. I replied "yes and I have sent the offer to the seller for the seller’s review." The buyer said "thank you" and we...

TL;DR: Cleaner indoor air can improve comfort, reduce allergens, and make a home more appealing to potential buyers. Professional air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, and HVAC system maintenance are simple ways to improve indoor air quality and help create a healthier living environment.Whether you're preparing a home for sale or settling into a new one, indoor air quality is often overlooked. Dust, pet dander, pollen, and other contaminants can accumulate in HVAC systems over time, circulating throughout the home. Replacing HVAC filters regularly, controlling humidity, keeping vents clean, and scheduling professional air duct cleaning can all help improve the air you breathe.At DUCTZ of Greater Tucson and Oro Valley, we specialize in professional HVAC restoration, air duct cleaning,...

There was a time when owning a few acres wasn't considered unusual.People had room for gardens, workshops, horses, RVs, pets, and projects. Neighbors waved from a distance, not through a shared fence. A person's property reflected their interests, not a list of community restrictions, rules and regulations.Today, that kind of lifestyle is becoming harder to find.As new developments continue to fill available land, many buyers find themselves choosing between a beautiful home and the freedom to use their property the way they want. Larger lots have become smaller. Garages have become tighter. Rules have become longer.That's why properties like this one stand out.Set on 3.37 horse-zoned acres, this home offers something that can't easily be built, manufactured, or added later: elbow room....

I think that we can all agree that Churches are Beautiful.I don't know the name of this church, but Sharon Tar...
