Arizona real estate agents know that some folks from Minnesota are likely to become snowbirds and seek housing in sunny Arizona for the winter and spend the summers up here where they can be near friends and family not to mention the lovely lakes, and the arts, fine dining and all that the metro area has to offer.
I do know some mighty fine real estate agents in Arizona and would be happy to make an introduction should any Minnesotan want to defect for the winter. 😉 Last winter was so bad that some folks were already planning their moves in January and I worked with one home seller who had only lived here one winter and did not want to stay for another. Last winter was unusually brutal I am somewhat surprised that any of us are staying for another.
If you do decide to move away keep my contact information handy as parts of Arizona are on the list of the top ten places that are going to be adversely affected by climate change.
Personally I like the idea of a vacation in the Desert Southwest in January . . which by the way is when and where I took the photo.
