We expect 2018 to be a great year for Sedona real estate sales for many factors.
OTHER FACTORS TO CONSIDER
1. As a vacation destination, Sedona is beginning to challenge the Grand Canyon as the #1 destination in Arizona. Tourist numbers have climbed to around 3M per year. The introduction of Sedona to an ever increasing numbers of tourists has positively aided growing demand for real estate.
2. A causative factor as well is the national recovery of the economy. Many areas of the US are seeing homes sell now. This allows people from other areas to afford to come to Sedona.
3. State Bill 1350 – An Arizona law that prohibits local and county governments from limiting vacation home rentals (More Info). Home Owner Associations (HOA’s) including Condo Associations can still restrict rentals through CC&R’s. The majority of HOA/POA/COA’s do limit short term vacation home rentals. Most impose a 30 day minimum period but some are more restricted. This triggered a buying frenzy on non-HOA homes with most new Sedona homeowners wishing to do either full or part time vacation home rental. It’s an opportunity to have a second home that also pays back. Something difficult to do in the past due to City of Sedona restrictions.
4. Surrounded by Coconino National Forest. Sedona and has a limited area that could possibly be developed. By Statute, the National Forest if forbidden from selling land so Sedona isn’t likely to grow beyond its current borders. With constrained growth, supply and demand will push Sedona home sales prices up.
5. Many of our clients are departing high tax states and cities for Arizona.
