Luxury Homes for Sale in Scottsdale AZ

Homes in Scottsdale can be costly, but given the city’s high aesthetic quality, the average prices compare favorably to those in other major cities nationwide. Since there are mostly luxury homes for sale, many Scottsdale AZ residences surpass this average cost significantly. Luxury homes can dramatically increase a homeowner’s standard of living, justifying their premium prices.
 
In the last few years, Scottsdale home prices have risen by at least 5%, and the demand tends to drive prices even higher. Scottsdale homeowners can expect their property’s value to rise by the time they’re able to sell if they keep it in mind.

A Balance of Work and Play

Scottsdale is a great place to look for work, with the hospitality and aviation industries offering the most opportunities. Expert studies also show that the city’s employment market will improve in the years ahead. And, like Phoenix, the starting pay is significantly higher than in most other metropolitan areas.
 
This fascinating city, however, is not really “all work and no play.” Scottsdale’s night scene is notorious for being one of the most lively nightlife in the country, with restaurants, bars, nightspots, and more. The Scottsdale Fall Festival is one of many fun outdoor festivals and activities that promote the city’s heritage.

The area’s art scene is thriving, and you can see it in a variety of museums and galleries across the city.
