Phoenix Fixer-Uppers: Your Next Equity Play Starts Here

In a market where turnkey homes dominate the spotlight, Phoenix fixer-uppers are quietly offering something even more powerful—equity-building potential. Whether you're an investor, contractor, or first-time buyer with vision, buying a home that needs work can be your smartest real estate play.

1. Why Buy a Fixer-Upper in Phoenix? Prices on these homes are typically lower per square foot. That means more house for your dollar—and more opportunity to increase value through sweat equity, strategic renovations, or a complete flip.

2. Who’s Buying Them?

• Investors hunting their next flip or BRRRR project
• Contractors looking to live in and improve their own homes
• Owner-occupants seeking a deal they can customize over time

3. The Tradeoffs Buying a fixer-upper isn't for everyone. You'll likely face:

• Deferred maintenance
• Outdated systems
• Permit headaches (if you're doing major work) But the upside? You control the end product—and possibly your resale timeline.

4. What’s Available in Phoenix Now? I’ve set up a custom MLS link that shows all currently active fixer-uppers in Phoenix. No logins. No gimmicks. Just raw potential.

Gilbert’s Best Golf Course Communities — Ranked by Price Per Square Foot

June 17, 2025

Gilbert’s Best Golf Course Communities — Ranked by Price Per Square Foot

Looking for that sweet spot between championship fairways and affordability? 🏌️‍♂️ You’re not alone. Gilbert continues to dominate the East Valley as one of the top places to live for golf lovers — and smart homebuyers are zeroing in on value per square foot.

If you’re trying to live on or near a golf course without spending like a Tour pro, this breakdown will help.

---

⛳ Why Gilbert?

Beyond the green grass and scenic views, Gilbert offers:

• Quiet, well-kept communities
• Proximity to shopping, dining, and top-rated schools
• Homes with premium lot locations (some with fairway frontage or lake views)
• A surprising range of pricing — from starter homes to luxury estates

---

🏘️ Top Golf Course Neighborhoods in Gilbert — Based on Price/SF

1. Western Skies Golf Club
Arguably one of the best values. Solid homes under $275/sf with fairway and water views available.

2. Seville Golf & Country Club
A bit more upscale, but still offers gems in the $290–$310/sf range. Bonus: optional social/golf memberships.

3. Greenfield Lakes
A hidden value pick — some properties under $250/sf, and you’d never know you were on a golf course community.

4. Trilogy at Power Ranch (55+)
If you’re 55+, this gated community wraps luxury and lifestyle into one. Think low-maintenance living and great resale potential.

🏡 Just Listed in Chandler AZ: What’s Hot, What Moves Fast, and How to Beat Other Buyers

The Chandler housing market isn’t slowing down—and if you’ve been waiting for “the right home” to hit the market, it may have just gone live.

Every day, new listings pop up across Chandler, from updated single-story homes in family-friendly neighborhoods to modern builds with open floor plans and pools. The best ones? Often under contract in a week or less.

So why the rush?

• 🔥 Chandler inventory moves quickly due to demand from remote workers, growing families, and out-of-state buyers.

• 🧠 Smart buyers are setting up alerts or working with agents who know how to get in fast—before a home goes viral on Zillow.

• 💰 Many homes are still priced under replacement cost, especially in older established areas with no HOA.

📍 Here’s How to Get an Edge

I’ve set up a live feed that updates in real time—so you can see what’s just listed in Chandler before casual browsers even know it exists.

🏊‍♂️ Gilbert AZ Homes with Pools — Why They Sell Faster and Hold Value Better

If you’ve spent a summer in Arizona, you already know: a pool isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. And in Gilbert, pool homes are consistently among the most in-demand listings on the market.

Between rising temps and rising interest in lifestyle amenities, homes with private pools are checking every buyer's box in 2025.

📈 Why Gilbert Pool Homes Stay Hot

• 🔥 Higher resale appeal: Pool homes attract more offers and sell faster than comparable properties without.

• 💸 Longer-term value: Buyers are willing to pay more per square foot for homes with pools, especially in family-centric suburbs like Gilbert.

• 🌴 Lifestyle perks: From backyard barbecues to low-maintenance staycations, pool homes create built-in leisure.
