BUILDING A SENSE OF COMMUNITYThe real estate market was on fire this summer and we were excited to have the opportunity to introduce some new residents to our beautiful slice of paradise. When you choose Fountain Hills as your home, you get to experience a community that is rich in cultural and civic events, unparalleled volunteerism, and the beauty of the outdoors in a close and personal way.

A sense of community is at the heart of all we do at Sonoran Lifestyle Real Estate. Our Team stays busy throughout the year, volunteering at fund raisers for the Fountain Hills Theater, the Dark Sky Festival, Sister Cities, the River of Time Museum and our local schools. We look forward to the Fall when we sponsor key events like our “Spider Village” Haunted House during Halloween in the Hills and our “Elves Village” during Stroll in the Glow and other community events. There are always fun gifts for the kids and a quiet respite inside for the adults!

We also promote community through our network of trusted local business partners. These are our go-to businesses that we keep on speed dial because we know we can trust the quality of their work time after time. You can get to the know them in the pages of this magazine and we encourage you to give them a call when you are looking for a quality vendor for your home needs.

In this month’s Market Report, you will find local market trends and statistics, along with a great story to help you understand the Phoenix area real estate market. (See page 16 & 17) You’ll also find upcoming events and learn about some great local organizations.

CARCULTURE

For over 100 years, owning a car meant freedom and a driver’s license was a passport to the open road. But for car enthusiasts, it means so much more. There is an emotional element, a sense of identity. It’s Ford versus Chevy, a customized ride, and expressing yourself through an awesome piece of machinery.

Fountain Hills is a dream for car enthusiasts. Every Sunday from October through May, customers of Phil’s Filling Station bring out their cool rides. Cruzin’ at Phil’s is a great way to tickle your senses while browsing the older cars and meeting the owners who restored them. Grab some lunch at Phil’s while you’re there and enjoy the nostalgic décor of a 50s Coca-Cola themed diner on one side and a sports bar with beer signs and team logos on the other. Get more information at PhilsFillingStationGrill.com.

If you own a special interest auto, including antique, classic, or racing, you are invited to become a member of the Fountain Hills Automobile Club. This active group gets together for social events, attends rallies, gives local presentations about old cars, and participates in the Fountain Hills Thanksgiving Day Parade. Learn more about them on their Facebook page.

Fountain Hills’ biggest car show, Concours in the Hills, was started by local resident Peter Volny in 2014. It has grown to feature over 800 ultra-high-performance vehicles and luxury and classic cars from imported and domestic manufacturers. Guest dignitaries from the world of racing make appearances at this free event. For more information, visit ConcoursInTheHills.org.

In Fountain Hills, there is a great option for professional property management. Sonoran Lifestyle Real Estate has managed over $40 million in residential property management since 2010.

Sonoran Lifestyle Property Management Services are the perfect fit for clients who wish for their real estate investment to accomplish three goals:

Admit it. If you own property, you’re wondering if now is the right time to “cash in.” You’ve heard about the lack of inventory, the rising prices. You’ve also heard the anticipation there might be a recession on the horizon. No doubt, if you’re in the market to buy, you’ve had a major dose of reality as you’ve scoured websites for the right property, only to come up against a historic lack of inventory in Maricopa County. In 2019, the answer to the “Buy or Sell” question is the same as it has always been: What’s best for your family?

We’d like to give you some information gleaned from numerous resources that may affect your decision, or at the very least, make you sound really smart at your next neighborhood gathering! Fountain Hills real estate has been on a steady incline in average price and price per square foot since 2011, the “bottom” of the last market cycle. Yet inventory is at its lowest point of the past 10 years (or perhaps longer!) Historically, the Arizona real estate market has cycled completely every 7-10 years, and if that were to hold, we would currently be in a declining market on our way to the bottom. Yet, the opposite is true. Consider these regional dynamics:

POPULATION GROWTH IN MARICOPA COUNTY:• More people moved to Maricopa County than any other county in the nation last year, according

to U.S. Census Bureau population estimates released in April 2019. This is the third year in a row that the county led in growth. Maricopa County added 81,244 people between July 2017 and July 2018.

JOB GROWTH IN MARICOPA COUNTY: • The Phoenix metro area led the nation for new jobs created from May 2018 to May 2019 adding

66,500 new nonfarm jobs that represent a 3.2% job growth. Leading sectors were Education, Health Services, Construction, and Professional & Business Services. Arizona expects to add another 165,000 new jobs by 2020, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics as reported in AZ BUSINESS MAGAZINE (July 3, 2019)

• Some of the dynamic businesses moving to the Phoenix area include Anderson Corporation, a popular window and door manufacturer, looking to create 415 jobs. Deloitte is opening a new delivery center for technology solutions, with an initial $34 million investment that will generate 2,500 jobs over multiple phases. Nationwide Insurance will establish a regional headquarters in Scottsdale, investing $139 million and creating more than 500 new jobs; Nikola Motor Company’s hydrogen-electric semi-truck manufacturing headquarters will bring more than $1

billion in capital investment and 2,500 jobs by 2024; Voya Financial, Inc. will open a new office with $60 million in capital investment and creating more than 1,000 jobs.

ARIZONA’S PRO-BUSINESS ATTITUDE: The allure comes from one of the lowest tax rates in the nation, a pro-business environment, and a streamlined regulatory system. Add to that affordable operational costs, access to top talent and thriving innovation ecosystems, and Arizona can expect more company relocations and expansions.

HOUSING AFFORDABILITY: • One of the key factors when companies consider Maricopa County is access to affordable

housing for employees. According to an article in the Chamber Business News (Aug 10, 2019), Phoenix has an average rent of $1,084, which falls well below the national average of $1,465. Remaining affordable will depend on the balance of supply and demand in an already tight rental housing market. In the same article, the University of Arizona anticipates over 9,000 apartment units to be built every year between 2018 and 2030, helping to ease the demand.

• Arizona ranks 21st in the nation for the average price of a home at $295,000, according to Business Insider (July 5, 2019), among the lowest of all western states.

NEW HOUSING ON THE HORIZON: New home building in Arizona is still only 25-30% of the volume recorded during the years that led to the Great Recession. With record population and job growth, it would be easy to presume that homebuilding will or should increase. Yet, according to Arizona housing guru R.L. Brown in his 2019-2024 Mid-Year Forecast, building will likely remain at these modest levels throughout the foreseeable future.

If you are considering a move, many factors must be weighed. One thing you can be sure of: barring a disruption of our national economy, Arizona real estate is still a great investment and will likely remain so for many years, or even decades, to come.

At Sonoran Lifestyle Real Estate, we stand ready to help you sort through the opportunities and challenges of your options!

Located in the heart of Fountain Hills, the L. Alan Cruikshank River of Time Museum opened its doors in 2003 with an innovative mission: merging the social sciences of history, archaeology, and anthropology in combination with the natural sciences to preserve and interpret the past, to understand the present, and to promote future sustainability in all of the communities of the Lower Verde River Valley. These communities include the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, Fountain Hills, and the Verde communities.

WATER IS AT THE HEART OF OUR STORYA walk through the River of Time Museum reflects a journey that started millions of years ago when the waters of the Verde River flowed in a direction opposite from where they flow today. The exhibits demonstrate how inhabitants throughout the ages have utilized water to adapt to the conditions of the Sonoran Desert. Populations who have called the Lower Verde River Valley their home tell their story through the Museum’s interpretive exhibits.

NON-PROFIT OF THE YEARThe Museum was named the 2018 “Non-Profit of the Year” by the Fountain Hills Chamber of Commerce for its wide range of programs o�ered to the community. A successful summer camp program, the popular Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation tour, participation in the Dark Sky Festivals, and the seasonal dinner series give residents opportunities to engage with the Museum repeatedly. Guests can find uniquely Sonoran Desert gifts for all ages in the Gift Shop.

UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES TO DONATE & VOLUNTEERThe Museum also o�ers two popular event fundraisers each year: the Holiday Mart that begins in November where people can purchase quality, used holiday decorations, and the “Taste of the P-Bar Ranch” fundraising dinner and auction. If you are looking for volunteer opportunities, this is a great place to get involved. Volunteers serve as museum ambassadors, docents, event helpers, camp directors, and more.

The museum is located at 12901 N. La Montana Drive in Fountain Hills. For more information, visit www.rotmuseum.org.

Beethoven once said, “Music can change the world.” If you possess musical talent, you can certainly make an impact on Fountain Hills! Several great musical organizations exist to give musicians an outlet for their talent while giving residents the beauty of music.

The Fountain Hills Community Band celebrated its 10th anniversary earlier this year. Their performance season runs from November through April and includes an intergenerational concert with the local 8th grade and high school bands. In addition, the members of the band have a strong interest in supporting patriotic groups in Fountain Hills.

This inclusive group invites anyone with at least high school experience to participate. For more information about joining, visit fhcultural-civic.org/community-band.

If singing is more your style, the Fountain Hills Community Chorus gives residents an opportunity to share your passion. The chorus is comprised of nearly 100 voices singing in four-part harmony and is open to anyone. There are no auditions and the ability to read sheet music is not required.

The Chorus performs two holiday concerts in December and two Spring concerts. For more information, visit fhcultural-civic.org/community-chorus-1.

In-Home Concerts brings top-quality musicians to perform in some of Fountain Hills’ most beautiful and luxurious homes for a series of six concerts each year. Tickets sell out fast, so residents are encouraged to sign up for their mailing list. Visit fhcultural-civic.org/home-concerts.

A series of four lunchtime concerts by Munch & Music brings standing-room-only crowds to listen to notable performers from around the state. These concerts are free to the public and are a big hit with residents who can slip away for an hour on Thursdays. For more information, visit fhcultural-civic.org/munchandmusic.

With the growth of the Fountain Hills food scene has come the emergence of a variety of live music choices on the weekends. Enjoy a meal and tremendous local talent at Euro Pizza Café, Grapeables, Arrivederci, Fireside Grill, Sapori d’Italia, and DC Bar & Grill.

With college tuition rapidly increasing and college debt skyrocketing, attending a community college may be a better way to get started toward a degree.

According to U.S. News & World Report, average annual cost of tuition in the 2018-2019 school year was $9,716 for state residents at public colleges versus $3,660 for in-state students at community colleges. Maricopa County Community Colleges o�er a�ordable tuition at $85 per credit hour for a high-quality education you can a�ord. The ten colleges spanning Maricopa County also provide world-class faculty, small class sizes, and innovative programs to support your success.

Students can get workforce training with a certificate of completion program, a two-year associates degree, or get a head start on a four-year bachelor’s degree. The transfer pathway helps students who meet program requirements make a smooth transition to one of Arizona’s state universities. Campus experiences can include performing arts, athletics programs, and extracurricular clubs that appeal to a variety of interests. Extracurricular activities give students a chance to learn skills, build their resume, meet new people, have fun, and maybe even make an impact.

Three of the colleges closest to Fountain Hills include:

• Scottsdale Community College: As the only community college located on tribal land, it o�ers exceptional Native American support. SCC was named a 2017 military-friendly school in recognition of its success in retention, graduation, and job placement for veterans. The school also o�ers unique studies in equine science and a well-recognized film school.

• Mesa Community College: MCC is one of the largest transfer providers to ASU. Among its 200 degree and certificate programs, it also o�ers special programs in agribusiness, mortuary science, and urban horticulture. They have a state-of-the-art planetarium for their astronomy program and their Red Mountain Campus has created a wetland as a teaching lab and refuge for endangered plants and animals.

• Rio Salado Community College: With satellite campuses around the Valley and a main campus in Tempe, RSCC specializes in adult re-entry programs and o�ers an exceptional School of Dental Hygiene.

Four of the ten Maricopa County Colleges ranked in the College Choice Top 50 Best Community Colleges, including Scottsdale Community College. SCC earned its place for preparing students in dominant workforce fields that do not require four-year degrees.

CLAYTONSince I spent so much time in Fountain Hills on the weekends, I knew it was the place for me when it came time to buy a home. I found a beautiful little condo closer to the park where I went with my dogs, and we lived there for a year. When I had the idea of getting a bigger place, I went to Sonoran Lifestyle Real Estate. John Weil started showing me homes and I found one that ranked 10 out of 10 on my checklist, and that’s the home I’m in today. It was convenient to work with the Sonoran Lifestyle team for both of my needs of buying a home and finding property management for renting my condo. If someone is considering moving to Fountain Hills, they need to visit the Sonoran Lifestyle Real Estate team.

KELLYSuzanne Nann, thank you for a job well done. I really appreciated your professionalism and help with the repairs. You made it very smooth. Also, I am glad to hear that the buyers are happy...may they have many blessings with their new home. Thanks again.

AUDREYDori Wittrig impressed me with her knowledge of the market and the length of time she’s been involved in the community. We were looking to buy homes for both ourselves and my mother. Dori helped us look at a myriad of possible properties and come to the right solution for our family. Then her team kicked into gear– negotiations, inspections, repairs, closing questions and on and on. They saved us from the headache of finding vendors, getting quotes, compiling the information and then negotiating with the former owners on how to remediate the issues. What a relief! Thank you, Dori and the entire Sonoran Home Team for all of your help and for a smooth purchase process times TWO!!!

JAY & JANEWorking with Dawn Woods is the best thing that has happened to us as landlords. After experience with previous property managers, seeing Dawn do the job the way it should have been done all along was a truly positive experience. She is responsive to us and our tenants. She has excellent results in finding new tenants and maximizing tenant occupancy. Our property has been occupied nearly 100% of the time since we have been working with her.

JANI cannot say enough about Suzanne Nann! Suzanne was recommended to me by my neighbor’s attorney when it became necessary for her to sell her home to enter a nursing facility. As her POA, I needed to dis-pose of the contents of the home and prepare the house for sale. She helped me in every aspect of the sale, spending a considerable amount of time on referring and supervising workmen. She is knowledgeable, en-ergetic, organized, detail oriented, and always professional. In addition, she is a compassionate and caring human being! Oh, and by the way, once the house was listed, she sold it in one week! Thank you so much.

MINDYDori Wittrig is a top-notch realtor! She and her team are extremely professional and knowledgeable on the market in Fountain Hills and Arizona in general. She went over and above for us to make sure our moving ex-perience was as seamless as possible. She knows local and nearby tradespeople and that has been a huge help to us in finding good, reliable assistance. We highly recommend Dori Wittrig as the ‘go to’ realtor for Fountain Hills! She is a pleasure to work with and will keep you up to date with all the details in your move. Thank you, Dori!
