It's no secret that buyer traffic is low in Active Adult communities in the Phoenix metro are during the Summer.  House hunting vacations are rarely planned for the months June - August when temps soar into the triple digits. This leads to one of the most frequest questions I receive from those considering selling their Sun Lakes, AZ homes.  "Should I list my home in the Summer?  Or, should I wait till Fall?" There are pros and cons to a summer listing. First the cons which most people know.  Buyer traffic is low, so a home could take longer to sell. BUT...here is a couple big "pro's" for listing in the Summer. 1. Fewer homes on the market since many sellers do wait till fall and even take their homes off the market for the summer. 2. As the summer drags on, those sellers who are anxiou...

  Great news! The IronOaks Fitness Center is now opening its doors at 5:30 am Monday through Friday. The earlier hours should help those who are still in the work force or those early birds who start their days at the crack of dawn. Also, membership dues are now prorated through the end of the membership year (September 30th). For instance, if you join in June, your dues would be $85 for an individual or $165 for a dual membership. Now that the temps are hitting those triple digits, our outdoor activities are limited, so it's a great time to check out our fitness center. If you've never had a chance to visit the fitness center, why not stop on over for a free facility tour and to meet some of the Staff!

Ironwood Country Club is one of the smallest subdivisions within Sun Lakes.  Five homes were sold in Ironwood during the 1st quarter 2012 with a median sales price of $280,000. This compares to last year's first quarter sales which was also comprised of 5 homes with a median sales price of $230,000 Inventory is starting to fall, higher prices should be too far behind.

A beautiful spring day in Oakwood Country Club in Sun Lakes.  A day on the golf course with the sun shining and a gentle breeze blowing. But wait…what is that smell?  Actually there’s really no question what is permeating that gentle breeze. I snapped this photo and it looks like these unsuspecting golfers were surprised to see that it wasn't just their golf game that was stinking!

It was a beautiful day for a Farmer's Market in Sun Lakes, Arizona.  Temps in the high 70's, sun shining brightly and a bounty of healthy fruits and veggies.  I always love to support the local farmers!  Also available are healthy dog treats and even a few dog and cat fashion items. The Farmer's Market is held on Fridays...but there's only one left.  Don't miss it next Friday or you'll be waiting until next year!

One of the questions most asked when it comes to Real Estate in Sun Lakes, AZ is when are we going to see our home values start to increase again?  Home appreciation..it's one of the best things about owning a home. The chart below shows the median sales prices for homes in Sun Lakes as a whole. You'll see that our highest values were obtained in January of 2007 with a high median sales price of $320,000.  It was right after this point that our values began to decline.  At the end of February of 2007 we were at a median sales price of $310,000. We've seen a steady decline since then.  Last year at the end of February we were at a median sales price of $222,500.  This year at the same period we were at $192,000 which is just slightly above where we were in February 2004 at $170,000.
