Scottsdale Condos - The Allison Condominiums

Last week I received an email from The Allison Condominiums advertising some specials they have going on right now for their new community in North Scottsdale. The advertisement looked great, so I penciled in a time to get over there to check out the community for myself.

The Allsion Condominiums are located just South of the 101 Freeway and Raintree exit in one of Scottsdale's most convenient locations. Like many Scottsdale condos, The Allison Condominiums began life as an apartment complex in the 80's, were purchased by a developer, refurbished, and now are available on the resell market. Three different floor plans are available, and prices start at approximately $169,000 for a 1 bedroom / 1bath, while a 2 bedroom / 2 bath runs about $249,000.

Top 6 Reasons To Purchase  Allison Condominiums

1. The Allison Condominiums are offering great incentives to buyers right now. Currently buyers receive 6% of the purchase price to be used towards your down payment, closing costs, HOA fees, upgrades etc. This is great news. With this incentive, it is possible to get into your new home with little or no money out of pocket. We have also seen other incentives on these units such as no down payment or closing costs, 4.5% interest rate, or no mortgage payment for 6 months. Give me a call at (480) 209-6277 for more details on the current specials. 
2. The location of these North Scottsdale condos are truly amazing. All of Scottsdale's amenities including shopping, golf, easy access to the freeways etc. are minutes from your front doorstep. This is a very attractive feature when considering future resell value.
3. Interest rates are great right now. A 30 year fixed rate mortgage can be had for around 6.125% while 5 year arm is coming in right now at about 5.75% (check with your local lender for the most current rates and APR's).
4. These condos are totally renovated and are turn-key. Simply move your furniture in and you're ready to enjoy your new Scottsdale home. This cannot be said for many of the condo communities offered at this price point, in this area of town. Places like Ladera Vista and the Villages North were built in the mid to late 90's and usually need about $15,000 - $20,000 worth of renovations to be comparable to one of the Allison Condominiums.
5. Currently the Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is showing approximately 56,000 homes for sale in the greater Phoenix area. Were experiencing a buyers market here which puts you in the drivers seat at the negotiating table. 
6. Scottsdale taxes are very inexpensive when compared to most areas around the country. Taxes for 2007 on a 1 bedroom are $900.00 annually, while a 2 bedroom is $1258.00 according to the information we have received.    

What We Can Do For You

• Negotiate the best price, terms, and conditions on your new condo purchase. We are not affiliated with the builder in any way. We work for you and represent your interest exclusively. If you walk into the sales office and work with one of the builders agents do you really think that agent will be looking out for your best interests and fight to get you the best deal possible?
• Any commission we earn is paid by the builder, so it costs you nothing to have an agent on your side who can negotiate for you and walk you through the buying process from contract to close.
• We are experts in this area of town and will help you decide if this truly is the best option for you and your family.
• The bottom line is that we are here to offer expert advice, and save you money while shopping for your new Scottsdale condo.
