Strange Requirements for a New Home - Too Many Restrictions? It is really great to have a Buyer Prospect who knows what he wants and can afford to buy it. He can afford to be in the "best" neighborhoods in town. He is an out of state Buyer, so I need to get him photos and reports to keep him happy and to encourage him to travel to Prescott to see the homes I can find.

I am claiming that Prescott and Yavapai County Arizona has the best weather in the whole country. After all, we are one of the few places in the country where we truly have five seasons. (Of course, this is counting our Monsoon Season which generally runs from early July into September.) Here is a record of climate information that proves it.

Want a home or a Lot in the Boulders  and Ponderosa Pines in Prescott, Arizona? Granite Boulders, Granite Outcroppings and Ponderosa Pines are among the most sought-after attributes for homes or lots in Prescott, Arizona. These can be either on the lot or within the views. Many of the neighborhoods on the south and west parts of Prescott have boulders in the views. These same homes are often on lots which also have tall Ponderosa Pine trees. These neighborhoods were developed among existing Ponderosa Pine Trees, some of which are over 100 years old and reach heights of 80 to over 100 feet tall. Use this search to locate homes in the Boulders  and Ponderosa Pines in Prescott, Arizona. I also made a search that locates VACANT LAND and Lots with Boulders.

Are you wanting to buy land, a cabin or home in a remote area with only a down payment? Among other properties, I sell recreational land, cabins and homes in remote areas, mostly in the Prescott, Seligman and Ash Fork areas in Yavapai County Arizona. These usually are on dirt roads, have no access to on-the-grid electric power and have no well or municipal water source. These properties are not good candidates for lender financing. Indeed, it may be impossible to get a conventional or a government-backed loan from an institutional lender on these properties. I recommend to the Sellers of land, cabins or homes in remote areas that they consider carrying a note. In other words, the Seller is offering to sell with a note for part of the selling price. These are entered and identified in ou... 11/18/2014

Mule Deer at my patio window. I live in Hidden Valley Ranch in south Prescott. It is quite close to The Prescott National Forest, so we frequently have wild animals coming through our yard. It is common to see deer, javelina, and smaller animals such as squirrels, birds and rabbits here. I have heard that a neighbor only a few doors down had a mountain lion look in through the patio window. This week I noticed my dog, Beau, also my real estate assistant, staring through the patio door rather intently. As I looked closer, this is the view he had. Beau and the deer were having a "stare down." The deer stayed there for a long time chowing down on a small tree that was there. It is easy to see how she would be a Mule Deer. Beau knows the word deer. If I say the word "deer" or "did you see t... 11/15/2014

I helped my client (let's call him Bill) buy a lot in a nice neighborhood buy an in-fill lot. It was a good lot at the end of a cul-de-sac. The neighbors did not want the house built there. The Architectural Review Committee made Bill redesign the home three times to change the front elevation. Now the home is nearing completion and one of the neighbors has decided to wage a war on my client. Here is an aerial view of my Bill's lot before Bill's house was started. Below is a view from the street as the house looked three days ago. Notice that the house does not have good street exposure because of the "hammerhead" turnaround and the shape of the lot. The beautiful views from the house are to the south and southeast. Earlier this week, Bill noticed large yellow markings near his front pr... 11/15/2014

Advice on Picking the YOUR BEST Listing Agent Here are some mistakes you will want to avoid. 1) Do NOT hire a limited service listing agent. You need all the marketing and expert help you can get. If a Listing Agent discounts their commission that removes their incentive to do the marketing necessary to properly expose and promote your home. Limited service Brokers, especially those who list property in the MLS as For Sale by Owners (FSBOs), are universally hated by those of us who put out extensive marketing programs and by Buyer's Agents who know they will have to do the work of the limited service Agent. 2) Do NOT hire a listing agent who will list at a reduced price to get your listing. A discount on the listing commission often drops through to a reduced commission to an Agent who ... 10/29/2014

Exploring Arizona - Day Trips from Sun Lakes Arizona Prescott Arizona aka "Everybody's Home Town" That slogan is exactly what drew us to Prescott Arizona in 1997 over a visit on the July 4th holiday weekend. Everyone knows the Court House Plaza in the middle of town bordered by Gurley Street and what is known as "Whiskey Row". Prescott was the first territorial capital of Arizona and is rich with history and historic preservation sites.  On major holidays such as July 4th and Labor Day you will find the Court House Plaza full of patriotism.
