Phoenix MLS: Investing in Ahwatukee Phoenix Real Estate

Ahwatukee was once described to me as “the poor man’s Scottsdale”. I’ve lived in both Scottsdale and Ahwatukee and although “poor man’s” does not quite fit the bill, the fact is you are able to get much more for your money in Ahwatukee. Further, that Ahwatukee is giving back an equal or better return on property values than Scottsdale.

Ahwatukee is closer to the airport and the downtown area for both working and recreation and we never have to deal with the traffic on 101. We have easy access to the Phoenix Suns, the Arizona Diamondbacks and even the Cardinals in the Glendale arena.

With investing you have to address renting a property, renters and rental income. Current rents in Scottsdale are higher on average than in Ahwatukee, and vacancy rates almost the same. So for a lower rent someone can move to Ahwatukee, enjoy all the conveniences and schools of the Kyrene School District, including fine dining, and easier access to the downtown area.

My “go-to” guy for investment loans is Reg Gustin of Sun American Mortgage. Google his name and you’ll see the kind of expert he is. He also gives seminars on investing generally, so give him a call and talk with him about any investment questions. He can be reached at 480-467-1082.

In Ahwatukee, you simply get more home for the money, an attractive lifestyle where you are surrounded by mountains, great schools, and have access to the largest city park in the world,

South Mountain.
