Market Surprises in Phoenix Real Estate

Friday, March 14th, 2008

Phoenix Will Rise Again!

Came into the office today and Eric Chambers, one of my top real estate agents told me that the offer he placed for a buyer had not only been declined but that the Seller had accepted another offer that was over list price!  Wow - wish I knew the details.  Did they ask for closing costs?  The home had been on the market 4 days. 

There are definitely smart people out there buying. 

Last night my husband and I watched a PBS short documentary from our Tivo cache titled: “Making Sense of Place: Phoenix, the Urban Desert.” It was fascinating and ensightful about the history of growth in Phoenix and of the future growth as well.  One of the ending comments was: 

“This land of possibility and growth, this Valley of the Sun, is a place where many more people will choose to pursue the American dream.”
