I had a friend of mine movie from LA to Phoenix a few months ago. His home is very nice ... much cheaper than the same size in LA. in fact, everything was cheaper.
Shhhhhh!
My daughter and her husband did the same, from Studio City.
My other daughter and her husband followed me from Settle to KY last summer. They bought a house a couple of months ago and moved in the beginning of this month. Spectacular acreage and huge custom home, all for $625k. That doesn’t get you much in Studio City or even Seattle these days.
Sun City is far from the best community here in Phoenix but anywhere in the entire city is cheaper than LA.
Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, Arcadia and Fountain Hills are the better locations.
