The best way to get the most accurate information most quickly is to call a REALTOR. The ARMLS is going to be the most accurate and up to date location for the information that you seek, and besides, REALTORS often know of some deals before they are listed, and sometimes if they don't get listed at all. Other web sites that "scrape" listings from the MLS are great, but they will always have issues with accuracy and timeliness. I think that timeliness is most critical right now, because, for all the doom and gloom that you see in the media, the good deals are still being snapped up, and often times they are being snapped up before you'll ever see them on another site that "scrapes" listings from the MLS. Hope that helps.

Hello!

I can assist you with locating a home anywhere in the Phoenix metropolitan area....from reduced builder inventory homes to bank owned properties, to new construction and resale! I know it is not easy to search for a home, especially with so many options. The best part is that my services are free to you (the seller pays me, but only if you buy and close on a home!)

If you help me narrow down your preferences, I can try to help you locate a home that will meet your needs.

--What particular price range did you want to stay within?
--What community amenities are important to you (i.e. active adult, gated, golf course, rec center, park, etc.)?
--What home features are important to you?
--Are you interested in new construction, or are you looking for a home that is ready for move in immediately?
--Will you be financing or paying cash?

Please let me know how I might be able to assist you with your new home search. You can also visit my website, http://www.buyanewhomeinaz.com and search my listings or other phoenix area MLS listings.

IMHO I think the best deals are between the bank owned homes & new builds. Sometimes the incentives are fabulous for the new builds, and sometimes the banks are deeply discounting the homes.
email me if you want a list of the current bank owned homes. You check my website for the mls too. Or I can email you a current listing that meets your criteria.
