  - Scottsdale Arizona Area Events: 20th Annual Carefree Art and Wine Festival -  I recently attended another great Art and Wine Festival in Carefree put on by the Thunderbird Artists.  I’ve been attending these events for many years, and saw that the Thunderbird Artists were celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the festival this year. We were blessed with a wonderful, warm Arizona day and I think it brought out a larger turn-out than expected. The setting for the Art and Wine Festival is the unique Town of Carefree, Arizona. The small town encircles a beautifully updated city center with the focus being on the largest sundial in the western hemisphere.  (And, it works!)  The town shuts down the main streets and allows the artists and vendors to set up their white tents to display t...

Saw an ad on TV recently re cleaning the oven BEFORE cooking the turkey; supposedly, the turkey will cook and brown better and more evenly in a clean oven.               Check out this pin on Pinterest: Thanks to original pinner who said: I think I'll try this next time. The appliance repairman told me using the self-cleaning feature takes years off the life of an oven. The best oven cleaner! Cover the bottom of the oven with baking soda; then pour vinegar so it's all wet. Let sit about 20 minutes or so, then wipe all of it out with damp cloth or sponge. I leave my oven door open too. After drying you may see some white residue, wipe again. http://pinterest.com/pin/284993482641175886/   And, something that has saved me from lots of cleaning -- if you have an ELECTRIC oven, you can place...

So we decided to upgrade the Carefree, AZ section of our website by adding maps for the smaller subdivisions that make up Carefree real estate. Our clients can now search for homes by clicking on the map images rather than selecting criteria from a search box. Hopefully this approach will bring a better home search experience to our visitors.  Carefree homes for sale like most areas in the southwest have declined in availability over the last 10 months. We're seeing inventory go down as more homeowners are waiting for appreciation to come back. There are still some foreclosures and short sales available, but if you search our site you'll see they no longer make up the majority of the homes for sale. To stay in tune with the Carefree real estate market and North Scottsdale real estate in...
