Buqui Bichi: The best brewery in Mexico is now here in Chandler, Arizona. They won the gold medal for the best beer in the world. I came to taste this soon-to-be-famous beer called "Banquetera" to see what the fuzz was all about...Amazing! This was not my first time at Buqui Bichi, so at this point, I have tasted most their menu already and I can honestly say everything is delicious!

It is important to price a listing strategically so that it actually sells for its highest potential. And if you’re a home owner who’s thinking about selling your home, today I’m gonna talk about how to price your home to sell and how to avoid the 3 common pricing mistakes.

Mistake #1. Inadequate Research – Not conducting the proper research before listing the property on the market or going by the "Zestimte" without considering particulars.

Mistake #2. Home Improvement Pricing – Thinking that every single dollar you spent on your house you’re going to get back and mistaking maintenance with upgrades. The difference between real and perceived value.

Mistake #3. Pricing your home with an "extra cushion" so that people can negotiate you down. Timing and value go hand in hand in other words, time is money. Have you seen a home for sale where they made one or all of these mistakes? Have you ever made any of these mistakes before?

We have a HOME AFFORDABILITY CRISIS in Phoenix, Arizona! Why are home prices so high? The problem IS NOT the interest rate.

Phoenix Arizona Real Estate Market in September 2023 is still in poor shape however: We have no bubble or crash. Demand is very weak with listings under contract down 16% from this time last year and with the 30-year fixed mortgage rate still north of 7%, qualified buyers are either on the fence or simply priced out. May be forever. In my opinion affordability is a bigger problem than 7% interest rates.

Phoenix Arizona Real Estate Market :: It is mid August, officially back-to-school season and we are exited because this was summer was too long, too hot. The hottest Summer on record for Phoenix Arizona did not equal the hottest real estateI market. I went on vacation came back and it seems that everything pretty much stayed the same it seems that Buyer and Seller are stuck in a holding pattern.
