Phoenix AZ Urban

Downtown Phoenix continues to be one of the best investments in the Phoenix Metro area.  While we have many well priced condos, we also have some of the best historic homes in the valley walking distance to Central Ave and the Light Rail.  There are many Tudor and Bungalows that have been remodeled well and brought up to date but retain much of their original charm.  With so many new people still moving to Phoenix many don’t know the rich history of our wonderful city and state.  Many only know what the ol’ western movies showed but that’s not Phoenix at all.  Phoenix has grown and developed in the late 20th century and although we grew out much more than up, we still have many wonderful neighborhoods in urban settings so you can enjoy your single family home and still walk to the Light Rail and get around Downtown Phoenix and Tempe.  To become a historic home or neighborhood in Phoenix, the property must be at least 50 years old.  Once you get historical status, you get a reduction in your property taxes.  There are also rules that you can’t change the exterior of the house and update it to something more modern, we like the homes to maintain their historic charm as well and significance.  Check out RooPho Realty’s website and all the historic neighborhoods we have listed.  Then call us for more information and to view some of the homes.
