[quote=Want_to_Retire][quote=bearishgurl]Want_to_Retire, thank you again for your post. This 2500 sf house *newer* house with pool for <=$350K seems to be about 18 miles northwest of town. Does the mid $200K to low $300K area you mentioned here have lots with RV pkg/access? Is this part of PHX or a suburb/exurb of PHX?[/quote]
BG the houses at that price range are about 15 miles outside of central Phoenix, which I define as Central and Camelback. Going north you would be around the 101 loop – which is still Phoenix but with many new developments. Going west they would be in the burb cities. I’m partial to the eastern parts of the valley myself – closer to everything and much less traffic.
RV access depends on the lots. RVs are pretty popular from what I’ve seen and properties with bigger lots often have them. My rental, in north central Phoenix, has a 6400 sf lot and it has RV access because it’s on a single loaded corner. The next house doesn’t. I’ve even seen people build RV “hangers” in their yards (in older Phoenix and Scottsdale neighborhoods).[/quote]
The reason I asked is because the OP’s friend, “david,” stated he found *new* or *newer* homes for <=$350K in PHX which were 4-5/3/3 with a pool and RV pkg/access.
Sorry if I sound a bit repetitive here, but are new or newer homes available in PHX of this size and appointments for <=$350K, and if so, how far are they from the I-10/I-17 intersection and how big are the lots?
Obviously, an owner wouldn’t be able to build an “RV hangar” in a *newer* subdivision which has CC&R’s prohibiting this.
I realize this type of lot is far more common in the established areas (ESP with a ranch-style home built on it) but is not common in new or newer construction, which tends to be much further away from city centers.
