It drives me crazy that we haven’t been able to keep up with this site for a while! Are you or do you know a great REALTOR who would be interested in helping us with Rail Life? Many agents are looking to do more business online but don’t have the tools or experience. If that […]
Light Rail Making Changes In Sin City
So, we’ve heard a lot of talk lately about how many new developments are popping up along the light rail line. Without a doubt, the entire light rail corridor continues to see many new projects. There’s a ton of new stuff in Phoenix, Tempe and in Mesa. Tempe’s “Sin City” area along the Apache Corridor, […]

Screw You! Can You Hear Me Now?
Back in 2010, there was a groundbreaking ceremony at the Apache ASL Trails where a ton of people showed up to support a first of its kind project that would be a true blessing for people with hearing disabilities.

Who Do We Blame For Rising Urban Home Prices?
It’s always fun to blame someone for something, right? Just ask my kids, they’ll tell ya’.

Housing For ASU Students In High Demand
As we begin a new calendar year, many ASU students ( and their parents ) are beginning to take a hard look at their housing options for the next school year. While life in the dorms can be convenient, living off campus makes a lot of sense for thousands of students. For the smart students, […]
