Hello Tski,
Where ISN?T growth occurring in the Phoenix area? The West Valley
is covering all the pristine desert land, the East Valley is building
all the way up to Superstition Mountain and beyond to Gold Canyon.
Chandler and Ahwatukee are building up quickly. North Phoenix, Anthem,
and Deer Valley are booming as well. Glendale and Phoenix each have
annexed land near Luke Air Force Base to decrease encroachment, as
houses, shopping and urban sprawl increase daily. Since the 101 was
completed recently, it is a lot easier to circumnavigate Phoenix!
I have compiled a list of brokers/realtors. I have never worked with
any of these, so I can?t vouch for them. I do have a West Valley
realtor in mind, that I have heard is highly recommended, but I have
been unable to get his contact information. I will post it in a da or
so if I can locate it.
I have also tried to list the ?fastest? growing areas in the valley,
though it seems ALL the areas claim the tile of fastest growing!
If this answer is not what you were seeking, please request an Answer
Clarification, explaining what is missing. I will be happy to assist
you further, before this question is rated.
?What all these statistics reveal is one simple fact, the Arizona
market is growing like never before. There are more investors,
speculators, new residents, new home buyers and move-up buyers rushing
to acquire their share of real estate in Arizona because it all comes
down to one thing: There is a limited amount of land available to
private owners and even less land where homes can be built.?

West Valley
============
Currently, Glendale, in the west valley of Phoenix, is experiencing
a building boom. Recently the Coyotes hockey was opened and just south
of that, the new Cardinal?s stadium is in the process of being built.
(2 miles from my house!) Surrounding the stadiums are being built
hotels, restaurants and shopping centers, all to be called Westgate
City Center.
?Glendale Facts & Statistics
? Glendale is Arizona's 4th largest city (behind only Phoenix, Tucson, and Mesa)
? Glendale is currently the 12th fastest growing city of 100,000 or more the U.S.
? It is projected that more than 1,000,000 people will live within a
10mile radius of Glendale Arena by 2004.
? The 225-acre site is located at the southeast corner of Glendale
Avenue and the Loop 101 freeway.
? The site is easily and quickly accessible from all areas of the
Valley via the Loop 101 and major arterial streets.
? In 2000, the bulk of metro Phoenix's new home building shifted to
the West Valley for the first time since the 1970's
? 60-65% of all building permits in the next five years are expected
to be in the West Valley. As NW and SW Valley growth continues, the
site becomes even more centrally located within Maricopa County.?

Glendale, Wickenburg, Peoria, Avondale, Goodyear, Buckeye, Litchfield
Park, Surprise, Sun City, Sun City West, El Mirage, Youngtown -
?One of Greater Phoenix's fastest-growing regions is defined by its
stunning mountains, sparkling lakes and bustling development promising
to deliver regional amenities and attract national attention. Twelve
unique communities, which offer a diverse lineup of outdoor, luxury,
cultural, historical and downright fun leisure opportunities, define
the area that is referred to locally as the West Valley, or "The
Avenues."
Supported by more than $1 billion in capital investments, this region
is emerging as a professional sports mecca, with acclaimed baseball,
football, hockey and auto racing facilities under construction,
recently completed or successfully renovated.?
?These facilities join other highly successful venues. Phoenix
International Raceway in Avondale, home to IndyCar racing, recently
completed major renovations that set the standard for the NASCAR
experience. And the Peoria Sports Complex, the spring training home of
the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres, is tucked among a large
entertainment complex with one of Greater Phoenix's largest malls,
Arrowhead Towne Center, plus movie theaters and hundreds of
restaurants and shops. ?

Tonopah/Goodyear
=================
?Every morning on his way out to Lot 1311 and his other job sites,
Martin Larson drives by some of Goodyear's old cotton fields. Most are
now housing developments. But in a few spots there are still crops and
owners holding out for the best price for the land.
From his truck, Larson spots a field of ripe watermelons wedged
between two new subdivisions and knows it will have homes within a
year. The owner wants more than developers will pay. So the developers
went farther out.
But soon the opportunity to profit will bring a deal. Then homes must
go up quickly to make the highest profit on the land and keep the
housing industry rolling.?

Chandler
?As one of the fastest growing communities in the nation, Chandler has
transformed from a small agricultural town at the turn of the 20th
Century to the High Tech Oasis in the Silicon Desert of today.?

http://www.chandleraz.gov/default.aspx?pageID=37
"We're a growing community," said Harry Paxton, economic development
specialist for Chandler. "We're a community able to attract a
significant amount of industrial development and employment.
"Intel and that Price Road Corridor are part of what's driving the
potential for hotel development, especially the full-service hotel."

The maturing of the Phoenix Area
?What Matters: The Maturing of Greater Phoenix describes a complex,
fascinating place where quality of life is important and how best to
enhance it is fast becoming the basis for action. The data show that
Greater Phoenix is putting down deeper roots, remaining consistent on
its feelings about the issues of greatest importance, thinking about
returns on past investments, and feeling a greater sense of community.
The report provides evidence that the region knows what it values and
is increasingly willing to acknowledge and tackle tough issues.
For example, the report reveals:
? Education and public safety remain most fundamental.
? Quality of life in Greater Phoenix is ?excellent? or ?good? to more
than 60% of those surveyed.
? Yet, 40% would leave the area if they could.
? Two out of three say Greater Phoenix is growing too fast.
? Greater Phoenix is largely consistent on its core quality of life values.
What Matters: The Maturing of Greater Phoenix presents scores of
perceptions and indicators. Past reports were widely used by policy
makers, civic and business leaders, community activists, and other
residents to understand where we have been, where we are going, and
what needs attention. Likewise, we believe this year's edition will
again be a useful reference for discussions of how Greater Phoenix can
live up to its potential as a great place to live.?

?Q. The vast amounts of cheap land here seem to be the natural
resource fueling the housing economy. If we want to sustain our growth
economy as long as possible, are there land policy or growth policy
recommendations that would make sense?
A. It is more than cheap land. It is also the ability to get
entitlements through the city process relatively quickly and the mass
production of housing to keep costs down.
Q. If you were a homeowner in Phoenix, should you be worried, now, in
10, 20 years, or not at all?
A. 23 years, 2 months, 15 days, 12 hours, 8 minutes.
Q. If you were a homeowner in Phoenix, what would you be thinking
about doing in the next few years to make the most of your money?
A. Buy low, sell high.
Q. What is your prediction for greater Phoenix's economy? What will be
the dominant industry in 2025? Looking into your crystal ball, what
about 2040? What impact will housing industry have in future years?
A. The Greater Phoenix economy will continue to grow more rapidly than
the U.S. as a whole. It will continue to by cyclical and we will need
to continue to diversify the export sector or base jobs of the
economy. The dominant industry will be business and medical services
with a good mix of biotech and hi-tech manufacturing.?
