Buying a Home in Anthem
Get ready first, learn what your budget really buys, then win the right home with calm, clear negotiation.
Buying a home in Anthem: one community, several choices
Buying a home in Anthem means choosing within one large master-planned community about 30 miles north of downtown Phoenix along I-17. The choices are real: a gated golf section with single-story homes, a west side with larger lots, and newer homes toward New River with multi-generational plans.
How I help Anthem buyers
I’m Valerie Moe, with Keller Williams Realty Sonoran Living. Because many Anthem homes share floor plans, I help you compare what you’re really getting: the updates, the lot, the view and the condition. We look at sold prices for the same plans, not asking prices. See knowing your market.
Anthem options and price ranges
Based on my recent market review: Anthem Country Club about $525,000 to $1.775 million, Anthem West about $525,000 to $1.4 million, and Circle Mountain Ranch about $595,000 to $1.1 million. All shift over time.
Deer Valley Unified serves Anthem, with Boulder Creek High School and several K-8 schools. Areas west of I-17 are within the City of Phoenix for police and fire. Anthem Community Park, with ball fields and a fishing lake, is at the center of the community.
The I-17 question
Anthem’s location along I-17 makes the drive south direct, and it’s also the main trade-off. Before you choose, we time the drive at the hours you’d make it. See Anthem neighborhoods, or contact me to start. You can also return to the home page.
