Be very cautious about using price per square foot to figure residential home price. Great for commercial property but very inaccurate for residential. There are too many variables that come in to play in homes than just livable square footage and price. Lot size, garage size, does it have a pool, spa, backs to golf course, etc are not represented in that figure.

At any rate, the home on Coyote Trail did not sell at $326k. That was the amount of the mortgage that was foreclosed. The websites that consumers are able view do not clarify the difference.

Dee, if you are in Alberta trying to figure out the area on the internet, you are going to have a tough time. Get in touch with a Realtor here to help you understand the neighborhoods. Good luck!

Hey Dee,

I'm just curious.... Why are you interested in Goodyear property? Do you have friends staying there you know or ???? Especially at over 300k ???? I am showing Scottsdale Bank owned property near Troon North in Scottsdale at 350k for 2400 square feet. In fact I just showed Canadian buyers the area and they were stunned at the difference in Scottsdale vs the west and SW valley.

Are you sure you want Goodyear?

Hi Dee,

One of those properties was for sale by a private seller. It had moutain views, pool and a better location than the other one, which was a bank owned property (REO).

The key word in real estate is location (repeated 2 more times, of course). And the private seller home was probably in much better condition than the REO.

Hope this helps you. For more information on what a Buyer's Agent can do for you, I invite you to conact me.

Dee,


This is because of the lender owned homes and sellers homes. There are some great homes that are priced right and move in ready. Often the lender homes are in need of a high amount of repairs.

Many sellers are willing to compete with this market. However if it is priced to sell and move in ready it is worth making an offer in some cases.

Feel free to contact me to recieve an automatic notice of homes in areas of you choice. I will need size rooms and preferences, such as pool, garage and location. This will give you accurate information on what is available and sold homes if you would like to see that too.
