Downsizing in North Phoenix
Downsizing in North Phoenix often means staying close to the shops, doctors and freeways you already use while moving to less house. Many owners look for single-level living, less yard and lower upkeep.
How I help North Phoenix downsizers
I’m Valerie Moe, with Keller Williams Realty Sonoran Living. I move at your pace, explain each step in plain language and plan the sale and your next home together so you move once. See preparing a home for market.
Questions to ask about your next home
How much yard do you want to maintain? Would an HOA that handles exterior upkeep help? How close do you want to be to Desert Ridge Marketplace or the freeway you use most? Answering those first narrows the search quickly.
