When remodeling a home, what is the cost vs value? Remodeling a home can certainly add value, however, not all projects are created equal and some will yield a much higher return than others. According to the recent Remodeling 2015 Cost vs. Value Report (www.costvsvalue.com), there are a few projects worth considering based on the amount of return on investment upon resale.One of the best things to do is to replace your windows because your cost recouped will be over 100% when you go to sell! Replacing windows in a home will average between $10,000-$12,000, but it is well worth the cost when the value added is even more than the investment! Buyers love to walk into a home that has brand new windows because it not only improves energy efficiency, which is very important to Phoenix home b...

Queen Creek is not San Tan Valley and many people, including real estate agents, are confused on the vast differences between the two areas and what makes each location unique. As your Queen Creek and San Tan Valley Realtor, I am very well versed on this issue and have written several blogs to help clear up some of the confusion: Do I Live in Queen Creek? and The Differences Between Queen Creek & San Tan Valley are both great places to start!I was recently working with some home buyers who were open to purchasing a home in either Queen Creek or San Tan Valley, and they had a very specific budget and wish list for their new home. We found some wonderful options in both areas, but they ultimately ended up purchasing a brand new home from a builder located inside the Town of Queen Creek’s ...

  The Town of Queen Creek is #3 for wealthiest places to live in AZ only falling behind the #1 and #2 spots that were awarded to Paradise Valley and Carefree! Queen Creek ranked higher on the list than Scottsdale, Fountain Hills, Chandler or Gilbert! The median household income in the Town of Queen Creek is one of the highest in the state at $83,809 and home prices in Queen Creek are significantly less than home prices in nearby Chandler and Gilbert. The Town of Queen Creek is growing leaps and bounds, but with the proper planning and development, the town remains committed to keeping that small-town, rural feel that residents of the area fall in love with. Not only has the Town of Queen Creek been growing, but perceptions of the area have changed drastically over the years too! And, in...
