The top five reasons to purchase real estate in the red rock State of Arizona and the Phoenix area: climate, beauty, activities, range of housing types and, yes, economics. Below is an overview of the reason why many choose to purchase a home in Arizona and the greater Phoenix area.

1:  Climate of Blue Skies full of Sunshine

The number one reason many people choose to move here is due to Arizona’s geographical location.  With over 300 days of sunshine a year, there is no other state, possibly country, that can compare to our beautiful, dry, sunny climate.

2:  Beauty & Majesty of Arizona

Not only is Arizona a state people migrate to for the warmth, it is full of majestic beauty that makes the state a dynamic place to live. From the snow capped mountains of Flagstaff to the saguaro crested mountains of the McDowell’s, from the majestic red rock formations of Sedona, Red Mountain, Papago Park, the Grand Canyon, to the barren mesas of the higher desert, to the tropical style resorts of Scottsdale to the rugged western style atmosphere of ghost towns like Jerome, Arizona offers so much dynamic beauty that captures people’s interests.

3:  Activities in Arizona

In addition to the wonderful climate and beauty of Arizona, the Phoenix area offers sporting events, like spring training with the Cactus League, Phoenix Suns Basketball games, wonderful western style culture in Old Towne Scottsdale, sophisticated shopping boutiques in Scottsdale and Phoenix, miles of hiking and mountain biking trails through the Tonto National Forest, McDowell Mountains, Estrella Mountains, White Tank Mountains and the San Tan Mountains, and boating and water skiing at Lake Pleasant, Apache, Roosevelt and Saguaro Lakes, and tubing down the Salt River.

4:  Range of Housing Types in the Phoenix Area

Real Estate for Your Lifestyle… From the luxury dream home nestled amongst the mountains in the desert, to city lofts and condos, to gorgeous golf course frontage homes, to master planned communities, Arizona offers something for everyone. Whether you are in search of a dream home, condo, townhome, loft, commercial space, you can find it in Phoenix, Arizona.

5:  Economics of Arizona’s Housing Market

With historically low interest rates, many housing types to choose from, a buyer’s market, now is a great time to purchase real estate in the red rock state of Arizona. Housing is now much more affordable in the Phoenix market than it was three years ago and buyers are now in the driver’s seat.
