Let the Sun Shine!

According to REALTOR.com nine of the top ten most searched real estate markets were sun-drenched cities. While Tucson didn’t crack the top 10 most searched, similar sunny destinations such as Phoenix, Las Vegas, Orlando, San Diego and Tampa showed the continued interest in favorable weather locales. Residents of Northern, Pacific Northwest, Midwest and East Coast cities who experience hard, long winters like this last one will increasingly be attracted to the Tucson and Oro Valley areas. Home ownership in locations like Oro Valley are greatly benefited by our amazingly sunny climate year round. The Metropolitan Tucson Convention & Visitors Bureau boasts that Tucson is the sunniest city in the United States with over 350 days of sunshine a year. Even the relative abundance of distressed properties brings additional interest to our Oro Valley homes and Tucson homes as the affordability means opportunities for potential seasonal residents or relocations.
