For the past few years, local rumors and water-cooler conversations have cropped up concerning a large mixed-use development going in on Tucson's Southeast side:  "There's a Mall of America being built in Tucson!"   some have claimed, while others chime in with comments about developers floating rumors to help sell their homes and a whole host of other thoughts. The truth is this:  Yes, there is a huge developement going in, and no, it isn't being put together by the homebuilders who have been instrumental in the growth of the region.  Passages of Tucson is a 400-acre mixed use development to include shopping, living, health, offices--you name it.  Plans are for anywhere from 1.5 million square feet of retail and business space to over 6 million square feet (depending on market conditio...

There is a proposed copper mine in the Vail, Arizona, area.  This mine, Rosemont Copper Mine, has not yet been approved and comments from the public are currently being accepted.  The proposed location of the mine is west of Highway 83 in the Santa Rita mountains.  There were three public meetings held in rapid succession in mid-March but the public was given less than a week's notice.  After public outcry and pressure from Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, another meeting has been scheduled for this Saturday (April 5, 2008) in Vail, Arizona.  It will be in the Auditorium at Cienega High School at 12775 E.

A recently released report by Arizona State University's WP Carey School of Business, titled Western Blue Chip Economic Forecast, suggests that there may be more pain ahead, due to spillover from construction into other industries such as leisure and hospitality that are still strong.The truth is, no one really knows where things are headed.  It is quite possible that there will just be more of the same.  Prices could increase or decrease.  Many of our flat fee listings are selling, so delaying the decision to list several months may not be wise choice (who knows?)If you would like to talk about it, as always we can be reached at 1-800-657-6579.

I am a single mom who works from home as a real estate agent.  For the past 3 1/2 years, I have also been home schooling my daughter, who is now in the 6th grade.  However, as my real estate business is consuming more of my time, I have found that I am unable to give my career the attention it needs as well as giving my daughter's education the care that it deserves.  Therefore, I have prayerfully made the decision to enroll my daughter in a public school.  The Vail school district is one of the more sought after districts in Tucson, and my mind was somewhat put at ease by that.  However, I did take the time to go interview Principal Kevin Carney, of Desert Sky Middle School, where my daughter will be attending next semester.  I was impressed with how many of the students Mr. Carney kne...
