Top 11 Tips for Real Estate in Prescott Arizona
Top 11 Tips for Real Estate in Prescott Arizona
1) Prescott Arizona has great views- Most days you can see the peaks in Flagstaff about 60 miles away. We are next to a million acres of National Forest, you can see Thumb Butte from lots of places in the county. Panoramic views are pretty common on homes listed for sale. We have some beauty to share with the rest of the world!
2) Prescott Arizona has peace and quiet- There are no interstate highways in Prescott, you have to come here on purpose. Much of the real estate is on larger lots than you find in big cities. A quarter acre is very common and you don't have to go more than a few miles to get a 5 acre lot or find a secluded getaway in the forest.
3) Prescott Arizona gets rave reviews- Prescott has been written up many times for being "Everybody's Hometown", one the "Top 10 Places to Retire", for having the "Worlds Oldest Rodeo" that happens every year over the 4th of July. The Courthouse Square Plaza is one of the country's famous "Gathering Places". We have some great museums and restaurants that show off our "True Western" Culture.
4) Prescott Arizona has 4 fabulous seasons- Prescott is a mile high in the North Central mountains of Arizona. We have 4 MILD seasons, it's almost never 100 degrees here and when it snows it's usually gone quickly. Spring and Fall are long and gradual with many clear sunny days. Arizona has a "Monsoon" season usually just after July 4th until about mid August. We get some rain and things generally get all green and wonderful again.
5) Prescott competes with it's Arizona neighbors- Prescott is milder weather than Flagstaff (7000ft), cooler and much cheaper real estate prices than Sedona, cooler and much smaller than Phoenix. Watch out for photo radar is some of our neighboring towns. We love our neighbors and visit them often but Prescott has a very comfortable set of statistics that make it easy to put together an attractive real estate package.
6) People come here to get out of the heat- Prescott is a mile high in the North Central mountains of Arizona. If it's 105F in Phoenix then it's probably 87F in Prescott.
7) Prescott has fabulous scenic roads- Bikers, RVers, and Photo buffs come take a few days to drive around the area. There are some fabulous roads in and out of town. Summer has lots of motorcycles coming up the "back way" from Phoenix on a twisting-turning road that is famously cool. Drive north through the mining town of Jerome, Az and continue through Sedona and Oak Creek canyon for a beautiful scenic cruise you will long remember.
8) What we don't have in Prescott is nearby- The Grand Canyon south rim is about 2.5 hours from Prescott. Wahweap Marina at Lake Powell is 3.5 hours, Lake Pleasant on the north side of Phoenix is 90 minutes from downtown Prescott. Sedona is just over an hour, Jerome, Az is 45 minutes, Flagstaff and Phoenix are under 2 hours. LA and San Diego are 6 and 7 hours if you go the speed limit (wink, wink).
9) Prescott has some stunning horse properties- About 10 minutes NW from downtown Prescott is Williamson Valley Road. The next 16 miles is rolling ranch terrain and very beautiful horse property. Large acre lots and upscales homes along the road as well as modesly priced areas with views all the way.
10) There is usually something fabulous happening at the Courthouse Square Plaza- There are Craft Fairs on many weekends during the summer, car shows, music, dancers, and local concerts. Whiskey Row is a famous shopping area and several blocks of restaurants and local culture surround the Courthouse Plaza all. It's snapshot of the commercial real estate market.

11) Prescott loves bald guys- I know this from personal experience. Very important to the real estate market is our population of bald guys and we treat them with respect. I specialize in residential homes and land for bald guys and their families, as well as those not folicle-challenged and even the occasional estate for our comb-over friends.
