Rancho Sahuarita Price per Square Foot

November 15, 2008 | By Kelley Koehler | Filed Under Market Discussion, Tucson Neighborhoods 

Heading down to Rancho Sahuarita today to check out some homes for sale in the area.  Rancho Sahuarita is an interesting community, it’s all designed to get people out of their homes and into the neighborhood.  Typically, the lots are on the small side; there are some exceptions scattered throughout, but the community amenities are fairly spectacular.  There’s a lake, for crying out loud.  A water park, a big rec center, trails and playgrounds scattered about.  And the HOA fee is somewhere around $56/month for all of that.

So what are house prices doing in Rancho Sahuarita?  Pretty much what you’d expect in this market.  This is the price per square foot of homes in Rancho Sahuarita since the start of 2005.

I was down at Rancho Sahuarita a couple weeks ago, and was pleased to see the decent amount of retail that has moved into the area.  Back when the community first started, it was rather out in the middle of no where.  It’s good to see the community growing and taking shape.

    I love the scatterplot presentation of this data. Might just have to “borrow” it ;)

  • What’s The Price Per Square Foot in Tucson? (October 26, 2009)

    If I told you a house was $175/square foot, is that a good deal or a bad deal? You can’t really say, can you? Every so often, I get asked – what is the average price per square foot in Tucson? Really, it isn’t an answerable question. Think about what that price per square foot figure really tells you – the price and how large the house is under the roof. What it doesn’t tell me is what condition the house is in, if it has an air conditioner, a pool, a 3 car garage. It doesn’t tell me anything about the lot size or the location. Doesn’t tell me if the house has been updated or not. Doesn’t tell me if that’s a five bedroom house with only one bathroom, if the house is 5 years old or 50, or if there have been unpermitted additions. In fact, the only time looking at price per square foot makes sense is when you’re looking at a collection of very similar homes – homes of similar size, age, location, condition, and lot size.
