A Message From Wayne Graham, Head of Real Estate
All indications point to the Phoenix market continuing to be strong in 2021. We have a strong start to the year coming off a record year in 2020. The demand for homes is high as interest rates are still low so we expect homes to continue to sell quickly. Now is the time to jump into the Phoenix market and take advantage of record sales and high demand.
