Good afternooon: I'm new on Trulia, hence the delay in responding to your quieries. As Brad has indicated, now is not the time to enter into the contracting business. Most, if not all are experiencing a rough time, with quite a number of the local area developers going bankrupt.
That being said, now is a great ime to buy (as it is in most areas of the country).
The greater Prescott/Prescott Valley area have quite a number of bank owned properties, not as many in the rural areas as in the town proper areas.
Yavapai Community College gets high marks for its programs.
The quality of life is excelelnt, one of the main reasons that we moved here over 11 years ago. It isn't the cheapest place to live, but prices aren't outrageous..
If you email us with criteria for properties that you are seeking, we can establish an automatic search where you would receive a daily update (that is, if there are newly available properties that meet your criteria). There aren't many "rent to own" as most sellers are looking to sell and use any equity that they may have to purchase where they may be relocating to.

Charlie Musarra & Kathy Renken, Realtors
