The Greater Phoenix Metro may not have made the hottest zip codes list, but we are at the top of the list for net inbound migration. The relative affordability and population density in relation to other West Coast cities like LA, San Francisco and Seattle makes the Phoenix Metro highly desirable. About 50% of my clients right now are moving here and state the reason being remote work availability and lower prices than where they’re moving from. No longer tied to work offices, people are able to get a larger home here for significantly less money.

I’m also seeing the move to the suburbs trend come to life in my business with many of my local clients opting to move out of higher price and more densely populated areas of Scottsdale and Central Phoenix and into the more affordable suburbs like Peoria and Glendale. They are also choosing new construction homes in favor of residential resale to avoid the bidding wars and have more control over the size and features of their homes. 

Why are you considering moving? To be closer to family? To get more space? To finally have that dream backyard? Whatever your motivation is, I’m here to help. If you have any question about what moving could look like for your family please don’t hesitate to reach out!
