Scottsdale and the surrounding cities have so much to offer. We are blessed in Arizona with year-round sunshine, making this state the perfect place for people who love to be outside. Whether it’s hiking Pinnacle Peak or Camelback, or utilizing any of the pedestrian pathways throughout the city, there are plenty of places to get out and actively enjoy the sunshine.

Maybe you prefer to enjoy the outdoors in a more relaxed way. (I do!) There are countless restaurants with outdoor seating, many with misters, making sitting outside enjoyable into the hotter summer months. We are surrounded by gorgeous resorts, many of which offer day passes to utilize their luxurious pools and spas.

Do you have kiddos? There are so many wonderful parks and playgrounds, as well as splash pads, to take the kids to year-round. One of our favorites is the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park, where there is a carousel and train to ride. The Scottsdale Public Library system is also a wonderful place to spend an afternoon with kids, especially on a hotter day.

All of this is to say- when you buy a home, you are joining a community. Ask questions, and choose wisely. Discern what is important to you in your lifestyle, outside of bedrooms and bathrooms. I am here to help answer the questions so you can choose wisely.
