8 | 6801579 | Arcadia Grove | 530 | 1,480 | 2/2 | listing | map | Comm. Notes | Jr: Unit looks nice. Appears to have decent number of windows, lots of storage in kitchen plus dining area. Fireplace, nice laundry room. Balcony has nice tree view, but being by the pool could be a little annoying depending on usage and noise patterns. Master shower could be expanded, but you'd have to do something with the window. Slightly high HOA. | 1/8 | 2989 N 44th St #2015, Phoenix, AZ 85018 | ||||||||||||

There is an ideal area. adjacent to the stairs, and in the same space that is ideal for a lift, not an elevator, but a lift like they use in warehouses. I think it is a very walkable area as well.. Jr: I mean, it looks really neat, and there’s a lot going on in that area, but those stairs… oof. Seems like it’s more suited to young bachelors 😉.

13 | 6727148 | Astragal | 585 | 1,421 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: Located about 15 minutes away near an old office of mine. Also located about two minutes from McLaren and Koenisegg dealers, for what that's worth. Very high ceiling in main living area is fantastic; however, while the walls in that room are studded with windows, they mostly look out to other condo buildings, which are really close, so they don't contribute to a view, and I'm not sure how much light they let in. The layout could also make decorating tricky (though you're far, far better at that than I am). Interior has a number of nice touches, but the way the photos are done, it's really hard to get a sense of the layout, and I think there are stairs going to the front door plus stairs for a second floor. But again, hard to tell from the photos. HOA is relatively low but still includes water/trash. | 10/8 | 14450 N Thompson Peak Pkwy #216, Scottsdale, AZ 85260 | Y | ||||||||||||

Again, nice area that’s mostly a mix of residential, office, and retail. Lot of traffic in that area around rush hour, but otherwise fine.

22 | 6721672 | Brentwood Park | 575 | 1,677 | 3/2 | listing | map | Jr: Nice area in terms of semi-urban lifestyle. A bit far (17-25 minutes depending on traffic) mostly due to how far west from the freeway it is. (On my map, it’s sort of in the middle of the square cutout in the lower-left.)I noticed the monthly HOA fee is quite high ($667), though they do cover most utilities including electric. Also of note, I think the non-master bathroom is upstairs. Also, looks like the view is going to be across the quad to the other building. comments on duplicate send Sr: Master is downstairs with two guestrooms upstairs so that’s perfect.

Bedrooms look nice and bright, but it's hard to tell how much light is in the main living area. Plank ceiling in main living area. Television placement there could be a little tricky if you don't opt for the over-fireplace position shown in photos, which is still a wiring challenge. Decent-size kitchen, separate dining area. Larger master shower with artistic window. Laundry machines are in closet but full-size. Single-car garage. HOA not too bad, includes trash/water. Interior is two levels, with two steps to the front door and two steps to the master bedroom. | 1/9 | 7800 E Lincoln Dr #1029, Scottsdale, AZ 85250 | |||||||||||||
24 | 6757228 | Camello Vista | 465 | 1,329 | 2/2 | listing | map | 12/29 | Jr: Located 12-15 minutes away in the McCormick Ranch area. No mountain view that I can tell, but the view out the back to the patio is pleasant. Patio itself looks quite nice, and the common area is lovely. View out the tall window in the dining area is kinda ugly, but maybe a nice plant or something would help. HOA fee a little high but does include water and trash. Includes 2-car garage.

27 | 6745284 | Canterra at Squaw Peak | 508 | 1,852 | 3/2 | listing | map | Jr: A large place with well-chosen upgrades. Interior appears pleasant, seems to have a lot of light. Mentions community rec room, so may have a pool table (though there are no pics or description to say for sure). Views out of the south side are great, while the location is close (10 to 12 minutes) and very easy to get to. It's also right next to the Phoenix Mountains Preserve (one of the largest city parks in the world); in fact, there's a dedicated pedestrian path to it. Also has two-car garage. Of course, lots of desert around you means you'll probably be dealing with desert critters. Main downside is that access is via stairs. HOA fee is reasonable. Pending as of 12/21. Still pending as of 1/25. | 10/8 | 1747 E Northern Ave #252, Phoenix, AZ 85020 | |||||||||||||
28 | 6792245 | Canyon Gate | 487 | 1,446 | 3/2 | listing | map | 1/26 | Jr: 12-14 minutes away. Unit is the most NE one in the development, which works well for seeing the mountains that are east and north -- though being a ground-level unit, those views will be obstructed. Exposure is north/east/west. 16th St is moderately busy, but this location is kinda near the intersection so traffic will be slowing and may not be of concern; being ground-level in this case helps given the wall. Unit also gets the corner landscaping and grass. Inside, the layout is relatively nice, though I suspect you'll want to do some general updating to floors/fixtures/appliances. Has fireplace. Has 2-car garage with inside access, which is nice. HOA is reasonable and includes water. Walking distance to Phoenix Mountains Preserve, with the pedestrian walkway to get there overthe freeway. | 1/5 | 7887 N 16th St #116, Phoenix, AZ 85020 | Y | |||||||||||
29 | 6743963 | Casa Del Monte | 575 | 2,109 | 3/2.5 | listing | map | Jr: Location on this one is a bit further.

30 | 6769789 | Casa Moderna | 535 | 1,424 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: 15-17 minutes away. An older unit, but it's had some nice updates. Looks like it has concrete flooring in the living room. Wasn't sure the courtyard was private, but I think it is, which is nice. On the other hand, there are no views to speak of (besides the courtyard), and the laundry room setup is a little funky with the washing machine hookups. Kitchen makes good use of a small space, but the hanging cabinet kind cuts it off from the living room area -- but whether that's good or bad or indifferent is a matter of taste. Pending as of 12/10.

Back yard has multiple large, mature trees and a pleasant pergola-covered sitting area, along with some grass on the side. Kitchen is fairly large, with a large island. Can't see much of the master bath. Flooring appears to be wood in the bedrooms and large tile elsewhere. Looks like it gets a good amount of interior light from well-placed windows. Fireplace, 2-car garage. Has a low HOA but doesn't say what that includes; I would assume not much. | 1/17 | 11268 E Poinsettia Dr, Scottsdale, AZ 85259 | * | ||||||||||||

35 | 6760701 | Desert Village at Sonoran Foothills | 499 | 1,662 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: This one's probably too far.

Charming, nicely updated, appears to have lots of light. 2-car attached garage, stone floors. Fireplaces are nice (except the one that's "in kitchen" 🧐). Very large, though the second master that's upstairs is a lot of square footage that will rarely be used. WIndows are dual-pane low-E, but not clear about all the glass doors. Also, although I can't tell for sure, it doesn't appear the West-facing upstairs balcony doors and windows have been updated; considering the thermostat is downstairs, I suspect it's quite a challenge to keep that upstairs area properly temperature-controlled. HOA is low but notably does not cover the roof. | 1/9 | 6309 N 14th St, Phoenix, AZ 85014 | Y | |||||||||||
39 | 6772914 | Estate Monterra | 655 | 1,751 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: Decent area 13-15 minutes away. Someone liked building cabinets and shelves - tons of them! Though, that may limit furniture arrangement options a little. Some nice touches plus some wood flooring (and some carpet). Looks like there may be three skylights, including one in the kitchen -- these tend to add a ton of light. Attached 2-car garage. Probably not much in the way of views, but the front likely has at least some view of the mountains given the way its oriented and what's between the house and the mountains. The bedroom shown (which I think is the master) has lots of cabinets and drawers for storage, but it's going to make TV placement a little tricky if you care about that (though you might be able to put it in one of the cabinets, and I wouldn't be surprisd if one of them is already wired for it). There's a nice park within walking distance that has ponds and walking trails. HOA not too bad but notably does not cover the roof. | 1/15 | 6334 N 19th St, Phoenix, AZ 85016 | * | ||||||||||||

Back patio is lovely, with an elevated sitting area, a fireplace, built-in grill, and very nice golf course and mountain views. Has nice-looking pool, but that brings a lot of expenses and hassle. Also has very large, pleasant-looking, pergola-covered patio out front, which would help with afternoon sun exposure in summer (house faces west). Interior-wise, appears to have been nicely updated over time, starting with the double-entry front door and triple-pane windows. The kitchen is quite large with lots of storage, a breakfast bar at the island, and an exterior door to the back yard that exits near the grill. There's also a larger dining area off the kitchen. Floors are a mix of wood in the bedrooms and large, diagonally set tile elsewhere. Both bathrooms have showers that appear to have been converted from tubs. 2-car garage with storage cabinets, small but serviceable laundry room with full-size machines. No HOA, which is great, but but keep in mind that means you're covering maintenance of the house itself plus all the landscaping, the pool, and the several hundred square-feet of pergola. Note: We're generally avoiding pools, but this one is being let through because of the views. Sr: Please put on list. There’s no HOA tone.

View from the balcony is probably parking lot first, but it has trees and mountain beyond. Other views are probably just the development. Angles and lens choices make it really hard to tell the layout from the photos, so can't judge interior light levels. There are definitely some quirks (e.g., panty shelves and microwave are in the laundry area), but may not be dealbreakers. Has a dining area.

54 | 6752140 | Mission Del Arroyos | 545 | 1,364 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: I think this one is excellent! Wonderful kitchen and great floor throughout. Concrete flooring is one of my favorites because it doesn’t show dirt and the finish last such a long time. It’s just great. I’m sure the Wolf appliances and column reclaimed from Ohio didn’t hurt 😉. It looks nice - they gave it a ton of character in the renovation. It’s a nice area maybe 13-15 minutes away from the house. Right next to another condo complex called Aventura Condominiums, incidentally. Looks like the view isn’t anything too fancy, though. *** after walkthrough *** Sr: If you look at the photos of the wall where there was an alcove and a piece of furniture in it. I think this probably was a closet. It looks like it that was taken out and they put the furniture there instead. Here’s my question do you remember when you go to the second bedroom? Was it down the same hallway as to get to the master bedroom or was it close by a door that almost was in front of the front door? Here’s my thinking, depending on where that alcove is exactly that it could be closed in and reopen on the other side in the bathroom area or bedroom whatever it happens to be there and I think it would probably be the the bathroom area. If that wouldn’t work out what could be done is the area closed in but just a section of drywall or depending on what I was going to do, Put a large piece of furniture in front of it or I have a 12 foot long by 8 foot screen that would go there as long as there’s 12 feet between the doorway of one hallway in the doorway of the other hallway which I think there should be. If it were actually done with drywall, that might be a great place for the television. Let me know what you think Sun and also if you had any additional thoughts about the the unit itself and things that you liked or didn’t like or you thought would be something we should talk about. I think you’re right that alcove probably backs up to the master bathroom. If I’m putting it together right in my head, one end of the tub may be on that wall right around the right side of the alcove, but the vanity and toilet are on the opposite wall. With those fixtures over there, that also means the plumbing for the tub is almost certainly over there, too, so not on the alcove wall. Seems like you could definitely do something with the alcove if you wanted to. And yeah, that’d be a good place for a TV. You could arrange a sitting area around there with the walk-through path on the kitchen side, and if you really wanted it, still have room for a non-TV sitting area of some sort closer to the front door. As for other thoughts, I can certainly see you wanting to change some of the detail things, but that’s probably going to be the case no matter where you go. The floor will be nice from a cooling perspective. I didn’t check out the windows closely, but in the photos, it looks like they’re decent, recent additions, which is good. I didn’t notice while we were there, but I do wonder about noise from the air handler in that kitchen closet and the air return on the other side of the wall by where they have the dining room table. One of the main returns for our central system is in the dining room, and it definitely makes a bit of noise. That said, our unit is probably far larger than the one in that place. Again, I didn’t notice it while we were there, but they did have some soft music on and I just wasn’t paying attention for it. Place was also very well lit, with lots of windows even in the den and second bedroom. Sr: Yeah, that’s what I had thought. Do you have any idea? What do you think? The measurements are between that third bedroom which is a den at one end and the fireplace wall on the other? The good thing there is at the front doors all the way it went in so that helps with the furniture arrangement. Oh, what did you actually think about the place as far as it’s livability? I sent you a couple more listings as well, but I don’t know if you’ve had a chance to look at them or not yet. Everything still OK with Trip? Jr: She paced off from the back wall (excluding the “hallway” containing the front door, laundry, etc.) to the couch, and I measured from the other end to couch, but I don’t remember either measurement. Maybe 12’ and 10’, respectively? Plus the depth of the couch itself. So maybe 25’ to 30’ total? It’s hard to tell from the photos. Where they had the TV was weird for me, though I know high placements aren’t unusual as lots of people put them over fireplaces — but the cinephile in me hates such placements. Where the alcove is would be much better. If you wanted to, you could forego removing the alcove and instead use it to reduce or eliminate the protrusion of the equipment. As for livability, it seems like it would work well. You’ve got the extra bedroom in case someone visits, plus there’s the little den/office. That could be all sorts of interesting things… private exercise room, mini-theater, listening room, wine tasting room, or just a place to display some of your collectibles. And it’s big enough to throw down an air mattress if you need two guest rooms in a pinch. Kitchen is more than enough. You might get a little road noise on the patio, but it’s worth mentioning the speed limit there is 30. Sold 11/20. | 9/6 | 11333 N 92nd St #1131, Scottsdale, AZ 85260 | Y | ||||||||||||

HOA fee is low but appears to only include front maintenance (plus community features). It's right next to a fire station, so may want to consider noise (they often don't turn on sirens just leaving, so may or may not be an issue).

Only one bedroom, but any of your grandkids would probably get a kick out of staying up in the attic area (if it's air conditioned).

72 | 6673934 | Rancho North Condos | 585 | 1,990 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: Seems nice enough. It’s another one where they’ve digitally changed the color of walls, which I find interesting. Desc says mountain views, but I couldn’t see that in any pictures save for one (living room view straight on to the TV), where you can see a mountain over top another building. View out the back is still nice enough, though. At first I was confused trying to reconcile the view from the balcony with where their map shows the unit, but I eventually figured out their map is wrong, probably because it uses Google Maps, which also gets it wrong. In this case, Apple Maps shows the unit properly located on the opposite side of the central community area (which is a much nicer location than what their map indicates). This one is on the far side, though, at 30 minutes minimum. And I’m not sure if having stairs at the entrance that must be negotiated every time is a great idea. Cave Creek is yet another few hundred feet higher in elevation than Fountain Hills, so another couple degrees cooler. Like Fountain Hills, they receive a novelty snow once or twice a year. Culturally, Cave Creek is sort of small-town with a definite old-West bent that attracts a laid-back, quirky sort of crowd.

HOA is high-ish. Sold 11/8. | 10/6 | 2302 N Central Ave #613, Phoenix, AZ 85004 | Y | ||||||||||||
91 | 6174842 | Toscana at Desert Ridge | 589 | 1,464 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: Not on the market yet, but Redfin has listing info from earlier this year when it was listed for rent. Up around Desert Ridge and High Street, so lots of shopping an dining very close by. Looks to have nice views with mountains in distance. Also have unit 3402 (sold 12/6) on the list. HOA isn't listed, but 3402's is $602/m. 1-car garage. Contingent but accepting backups as of 12/31. Sr: 12/27: Remove whole community from consideration due to universal lack of views. | 12/22 | 5350 E Deer Valley Dr #4433, Phoenix, AZ 85054 | Y | ||||||||||||
92 | 6757326 | Toscana at Desert Ridge | 499 | 1,468 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: 15-20 minutes away one located within walking distance of High Street and Desert Ridge. Lots of windows and light in the main area, though less in the bedrooms -- though bathroom/bedroom pics are limited. The "bonus room" is tiny but could be useful as a little office or memorabilia room, and may be big enough to throw down an air mattress. HOA a little high. | 10/14 | 5450 E Deer Valley Dr #2206, Phoenix, AZ 85054 | |||||||||||||
93 | 6750490 | Toscana at Desert Ridge | 520 | 1,464 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: 15-20 minutes away, located within walking distance of High Street and Desert Ridge, which have a ton of eating and shopping. Hard to tell what the views are - maybe partial city views, partial other condos, but lots of green through lots of windows. HOA a little high but community areas look very nice -- and include a pool table :-). comments on duplicate send Jr: Also a nice area. It’s right by a shopping center called Desert Ridge that we frequent (one of my favorite local theater auditoriums is there — it’s the one we took Jennifer and the boys to), and is about 5 minutes from the Mayo hospital. Not sure how the views will be, but the pics at least show trees outside the windows. This one isn’t too far from the Grawhawk one, but it’ll be a lots easier to access around rush hour because of local traffic patterns.

94 | 6795741 | Venu at Grayhawk | 599 | 1,326 | 3/2 | listing | map | Comm. Notes | Jr: Unit looks nice, though it's hard to get a sense of the floorplan. The kitchen end of the main living area might be a bit light on natural light. Nice view from the balcony, attached garage with 2 spots, fireplace. Has laminate floors and countes, but also sunshades and low-e windows. 1/25: Eliminated per SMS. | 1/8 | 19777 N 76th St #1248, Scottsdale, AZ 85255 | Y | |||||||||||

97 | 6731507 | Villa Royale at McCormick Ranch | 550 | 1,490 | 3/2 | listing | map | Jr: This sounds nice, though the pics could be better. Relatively close to us at about 12 minutes so, and it's very close to the fantastic spring training facility where the D-backs and Rockies play. | 9/13 | 8653 E Royal Palm Rd #2005, Scottsdale, AZ 85258 | Y | ||||||||||||
98 | 6747664 | Village at Market Street | 500 | 1,298 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: Location is on the edge of "too far" at about 20 minutes away in the DC Ranch development in North Scottsdale, though the route there can get pretty conjested and increase that time a fair bit. (Of note, though, the ultra-wealthy Silverleaf community is nearby, and the roads are such that on your way to my house, you'll hit a spot where those folks kinda get funneled through, making it a prime location for car spotting.) Unit itself looks pleasant. I like that the floorplan is kinda of open but isn't just one big room. On the flip side, I'm not really a fan of the rustic-wood look on the floors -- a bit too much texture for my tastes. I'm also curious about how much natural light gets back into the kitchen area and that hallway, since pretty much all the light has to come from the back windows/door that look out onto the covered patio. Shopping and dining are within walking distance. HOA fee is a bit high; it comes with a beautiful community center, but I don't see you using that very much. Was pending at add-date, but sold later that day (10/9). | 10/9 | 20801 N 90th Pl #159, Scottsdale, AZ 85255 | Y | ||||||||||||
99 | 6796508 | Villages | 425 | 1,318 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: About 15 mintues away near where the Rockies and D-back do spring training.

100 | 6758021 | Villages | 450 | 1,006 | 2/2 | listing | map | Jr: This looks nice. Doesn’t look like you’ll have mountain views, but they’re landscaped views. Location’s not bad, though I’m pretty certain it’s not McCormick Ranch as the listing claims. First floor. Sr: This one’s just a little too small so I had taken it off my list when I looked at it again. I’m going through them now to see which ones I might be interested in as before I was just trying to assemble some that looked OK at first blush. By the way, who is McCormick Ranch supposed to be special for some reason? Do you have a little time to chat today? Jr: McCormick Ranch is a large (3100 acres) planned community built on land that used to be a ranch owned by the McCormick family. Aside from its size, it’s known for having a lot of amenities (two 18-hole golf courses, 25 miles of bike paths, seven lakes…) and a good location in central Scottsdale. It’s nice enough, but I wouldn’t say it’s special in any way. As to this condo, it’s very close to McCormick Ranch but beyond the boundary. Of course, that doesn’t mean you can’t make use of those amenities. Sr: Gotcha I understand. I know there’s a couple of others that I’ve sent you that also say in the McCormick Ranch area. This particular one though it’s just a little bit too small. There’s a couple of others that I like but what I can see that are not in that area. I know I’d really like to have a view, but can only do what you can do and there is one single-family home that I sent you that looks pretty darn nice and it has a master downstairs and two upstairs bedrooms that can be used for yes. It has no view but it’s a nice layout. Anyway, if you can chat, just let me know. If not, let me know when it might be a good time for you. | 9/22 | 9275 E Mission Ln #114, Scottsdale, AZ 85258 | Y | ||||||||||||

About 20 minutes away, a little more with traffic. Two garage spaces, reasonable HOA. Mayo clinic location that's mentioned is their Scottsdale campus, which I believe focuses on outpatient services (along with some specialties). | 12/22 | 10055 N 142nd St #1020, Scottsdale, AZ 85259 | Y | |||||||||||
