Living in Paradise Valley

Most homes in Paradise Valley sit on large lots, and many are custom or luxury properties. With homes at this level, details like lot, views, condition and zoning matter a lot, so it pays to have an agent who negotiates carefully.

Buying a Home in Paradise Valley

Every Paradise Valley purchase is different, and the right price and terms depend on the home, the seller and the market. I'm a strong negotiator, and I keep negotiating until the keys are in my client's hands, through the inspection, the appraisal and the final walkthrough. On some homes you may also be able to take over the seller's existing FHA, VA or USDA loan. See my assumable mortgage guide to learn how that works and who it fits.

An attached 2-bed, 2-bath guest suite includes a kitchenette and private entry. More than 20,000 sq ft of landscaped gardens create a private botanical sanctuary.
