We buy lots and redevelopment property in Paradise Valley

In Paradise Valley the land is the asset. One-acre minimum zoning, a town that has deliberately kept commercial development out, and a custom-home market where buyers are purchasing a site and a view — then building the house they want on it.

The Town of Paradise Valley, between Phoenix and Scottsdale, around Camelback and Mummy Mountain.

The market

Why Paradise Valley is a land market

The Town of Paradise Valley has held to roughly one-acre minimum lot sizes and has kept commercial zoning to a handful of resort properties. That scarcity is structural. No one is creating new PV land.

A large share of the housing stock dates to the 1960s and 70s and sits on sites worth substantially more as a clean building pad. For an owner, that means the condition of the house is far less relevant to the number than the shape, slope and orientation of the acre it sits on.

Hillside parcels are a specialty of ours. The town's hillside ordinance meaningfully restricts what can be built on slope, and a lot of buyers walk when they see it. We underwrite those parcels properly instead of discounting them out of fear.

What we buy in Paradise Valley

  • One-acre-plus lots, improved or vacant
  • Dated custom homes where the land carries the value

  • Assemblage opportunities of adjacent parcels

Local knowledge

What we account for in Paradise Valley

These are the details that separate a real offer from a number pulled off a website. We work through them before we quote.

Hillside ordinance

Slope, disturbed-area limits and building envelopes govern what can actually be built on the mountain parcels. We price to the buildable envelope, not the gross acreage.

Town review

Paradise Valley's review process is its own animal and timelines matter. We factor real entitlement time into our offers rather than promising a number we can't stand behind.

Discretion

Most PV sellers do not want a lockbox, a sign or a public price history. Off-market is the default here, and that suits how we buy.
