May 13, 2011 by Rail Life 2 Comments

April 15, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

So, Arizona probably just missed making the Top 13 Best U.S. Cities for Public Transit list for the year. After all, people are flocking to our transportation system like crazy!

March 6, 2011 by Rail Life 2 Comments

There has been some chatter about rising gas prices for a while now. Some people are predicting $4.00 soon, some people say $5.00 per gallon is right around the corner. Are they right? I don’t know.

Tempe Condos – Holiday Shopping On A Budget?

December 24, 2010 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

It was 2005 and a one bedroom unit at the Tempe Villa Condominiums near ASU just sold for $125,000 to someone that felt like they just hit the lottery. Bidding wars in Tempe and all over the valley were as common as sunshine on a summer day. Fast forward to December 24th, 2010 and there […]

November 9, 2010 by Rail Life 1 Comment

Around here, we have talked about the economic impact of the Phoenix light rail system many times. There have been several studies mentioned over the past couple of years to make those points, even though the obvious transformations have occurred.

Chateau On Central Livin’ Large On The Line

October 8, 2010 by Rail Life 3 Comments

Chateau On Central has made a lot of news in it’s relatively brief history. During the real estate boom, it was going to be the next “can’t miss” opportunity for people to spend a few million bucks on a property that would surely continue to rise in value.
