Prescott is commanding $$$ from what I've seen...also lots of restrictions about building in Prescott proper...
Cave Creek is also a lot of $$$ with TONS of restrictions on what you can and cannot build.
Like Bud said, come out to where I live and check out the area...I live off 67th Ave. and Happy Valley (Northwest Peoria). Less than a mile from where I live are houses in the high 700,000's with more than an acre of land...some of them have 7 car attached garages and then 4 car detached garages with guest quarters..there's one with 8 attached garages
Housing prices in my neighborhood have gone up $125,000 in the past 2 years...
I will PM you my phone number. Feel free to call me anytime.
Bud, when are you coming back into town?
