Are you shopping in the distressed aisle for your McCormick Ranch home? Make sure to look up.

While the purchase of a bank owned home or a short sale tends to be fraught with a little more risk than a traditional resale transaction, it is important to note that buyers typically maintain inspection rights on distressed properties. While the various “As Is” clauses and addenda dictate that the seller is not responsible for making repairs on these properties, most purchases involving bank properties do allow for an inspection period (though the time frame may be shrunk from the typical 10 days allowed under the boilerplate of the standard Arizona Association of Realtors contract).

*In short, the bank won’t likely fix anything, but you are allowed to verify condition before deciding whether or not to continue with the transaction.

During the course of your inspections, it is always prudent to spend a little extra time on a bank property as there are no disclosures of prior defects. The institution that now owns the property never occupied it, and knows nothing about its history other than the pertinent fact that the previous owner defaulted on his/her deed of trust.

It’s all about the Benjamins to the bank.

The purpose of this lengthy preamble? To add a little context to the freak hail storm that struck large pockets across the Valley last (2010) fall. If you have been watching all of the new roofs going up over the past six months, you know that the McCormick Ranch area was hit hard. With insurance companies passing out full roof replacements like they were candy, it is not uncommon to see streets where virtually every home features a brand new roof. Foam and asphalt shingle roofs, in particular, took wicked beatings.

So while most owner-occupied properties in the area that sustained damage have been repaired or replaced, the bank-owned properties that have been sitting vacant for over a year are likely to leak like a sieve when the monsoons roll around this July. The price points of such properties are often attractive enough to offset the 10-20k many will need, but it can be tough to swallow when it is not an anticipated cost.

Before plunking down money on inspections and appraisals, I’d recommend having a professional walk the roof of that bank owned steal to help you determine the true out of pocket price of ownership.

Oh, and if you are buying a resale property in McCormick Ranch? Make sure to find out if the seller had any repair work performed in the aftermath of said storm. While one of our selling clients was able to obtain full roof replacement on a claim from that storm as recently as this past month, the likelihood of that happening on another property dwindles the further removed we get from the event. The insurance companies aren’t going to be in the roof replacement business much longer.

Happy hunting,

Ray & Paul

According to Wikipedia, an anomaly is any occurrence or object that is strange, unusual, or unique. It can also mean a discrepancy or deviation from an established rule, trend, or pattern.

According to Ray & Paul, an anomaly is a home in McCormick Ranch with a 3 car garage. Or by alternative definition, a competitively priced home in 2011 that is NOT a short sale or foreclosure.

We just happen to have listed in our hot little portfolio a property that bucks several norms.

While many Scottsdale home buyers will grudgingly accept dated architecture as a trade off for the prime location of McCormick Ranch, we are proud to present a home in the prestigious Rancho Suggs McCormick subdivision that renders such need for compromise unnecessary.

With 255 homes, Suggs Rancho McCormick is one of the largest subdivisions in all of McCormick Ranch.  Ranging from the initial development of the aptly named Suggs construction company in the late ’70s to the infill completed in the late 1980s by Key West (spin off of Camelot / Hancock Homes), the homes are as diverse as they are numerous.

Located just NE of the Hayden / Royal Palm intersection (across from the Mercado Del Lago plaza and Lake Margherite), Suggs Rancho McCormick is unique in that it boasts some of the more affordable single family homes in McCormick Ranch in addition to higher end properties.  The homes built by Suggs (who likewise developed much of the Paseo Village subdivision in the South Ranch) are about the most cost effective option one will find for the northern portion of McCormick Ranch (using Via De Ventura as the dividing line).  Primarily built with exposed slump-block exteriors and asphalt shingle / flat roofs, most range from 1700-2300 square feet.  With low ceilings that reflect the vintage, the lack of architectural drama is less important than the added energy efficiency to those who chose to purchase one of these homes.  Considering that the current pricing on these Suggs homes can dip as low as the upper $200,000s, the community bang for the buck is outstanding.  These properties are found along the Southern edge of the subdivision (Royal Palm).  Moving North, the homes become slightly newer (mid 80s).  Homes from this era may feature a tile roof and vaulted ceilings, while those along San Ardo, San Bruno and San Alfredo tend to be of the older variety.

Suggs Home                Key West Home

The Key West properties, as well as a couple of smaller builders who purchased and developed a handful of lots, are located at the North end of the subdivision.  The properties on San Jacinto, San Lucas and that line the South side of San Lorenzo are prime examples.  Boasting the soaring vaulted ceilings and full tile roofs that made the brand famous, Key West homes were ahead of their time.   Including floor plans with kitchens that opened to the family room (a renovation owners of other McCormick Ranch homes often have to make themselves), Key West also had a 3 bedroom + den option (most builders were still doing strict 3 or 4 bedroom plans) in addition to one plan with a master bedroom split.  These homes are much more in keeping with the more expensive neighborhoods to the West of Hayden Road, notably the Camelot subdivisions of Vista De La Tierra and Palo Viento 2.

View Key West Floor Plans at the McCormick Ranch Home Floor Plans Page

In all, the 255 homes of Suggs Rancho McCormick include 254 single-level properties.  The lone 2-story was created when a homeowner added the second level to a house that backs up to Hayden Rd on 85th St.  173 (68%) of the homes feature private swimming pools.  The average home size is 2156 square feet.  The Suggs properties were primarily block constructed, while the Key Wests and assorted minor builders of the mid to late ’80s primarily utilized frame wood.  2 car garages are the norm, but the neighborhood does include 3 car garages as well.

In addition to the aforementioned proximity to Lake Margherite (largest of the McCormick Ranch lakes), Suggs Rancho McCormick is within walkable distance of the greenbelt / multi-use path system known as Camelback Walk.  Mercado Del Lago and The Village plazas on the opposite side of Hayden Road are home to Buster’s On the Lake, The Melting Pot, Chipotle, Royal Barge (Thai), Zipps Sports Bar and Grill, TCBY, The Village Roastery (coffee shop) and more.  Just beyond these plazas and Lake Margherite (where Camelback Walk crosses under Via De Ventura) lies the first of the McCormick Ranch golf courses (Palm & Pine).

Suggs Rancho McCormick falls within the highly coveted Cochise Elementary / Cocopah Middle / Chaparral High School districts.

Country Horizons in McCormick Ranch features unique architecture that cannot be found elsewhere in Scottsdale’s first master planned community.  Developed by Jaeger (only neighborhood in the Ranch where this builder was active), Country Horizons is a small enclave of homes just South of Mountain View Rd and directly East of Mountain View Park.  The homes on 87th St abut the Mountain View Park soccer fields.  San Victor (Southern boundary) backs up to the greenbelt (Camelback Walk), and the Rancho Antigua Condominiums (conversion) lie just on the other side of Country Horizon’s Eastern edge  (87th Way).

View larger map

Built primarily between 1982-1989 (though 13 properties were constructed in the ’90s), Country Horizons features architecture and styling that is a bit more modern than can be found most anywhere else in the Ranch (with the notable exception of the Frank Lloyd Wright inspired Mountain View East subdivision).  Jaeger’s aesthetics were definitely designed to streamline living spaces and add an angular, geometric aspect to the prototypical McCormick Ranch home.  Unlike the sterile front elevations that many modern style homes feature, houses in Country Horizons still bear the warm exteriors (stucco and clay tile) that epitomize Southwestern living. Call it “Spanish Modern,” if you will.  Whatever the moniker, Country Horizons is very appealing given the limited quantity of such homes.

VIEW HOME FLOOR PLANS FOR COUNTRY HORIZONS (JAEGER) IN MCCORMICK RANCH

Featuring 67 total houses, Country Horizons is zoned R-7 for 7000 square foot lot minimums.  A bit on the smaller side for single family homes in McCormick Ranch, the neighborhood caters to those in the market for the privacy of a detached residence, but lesser maintenance concerns than those developments whose lots can range between 1/3 acre – 1 acre.   The homes are of primarily frame-wood construction with a mix of full tile and partial roofs.  All 67 are single-level properties, and 48 (72%) include private pools.  Averaging 2630 square feet, the homes in Country Horizons reach range from 2025 – 3309 square feet. The rare jewel of McCormick Ranch that is the 3 car garage can be found with a greater deal of frequency in Country Horizons (particularly in the newer models) than in most other Ranch subdivisions.

One of the few single-family subdivisions in which the HOA maintains the front yard landscaping, Country Horizons also includes an (approximately) 850 square foot recreation center for use by the residents.  In addition to the annual McCormick Ranch planned community fee of $185, Country Horizons includes a $164 monthly fee (current as of the time of this posting).

Within walking distance of Cochise Elementary School (just on the other side of Mountain View Park), Country Horizons also falls with the Cocopah Middle School and Chaparral High School districts.

In addition to immediate access to the Camelback Walk greenbelt & paths which take an intrepid jogger/cyclist/etc to all reaches of McCormick Ranch (lakes, restaurants, golf and shops to the West; restaurants, shops, Mustang Library and Scottsdale Healthcare to the East), Country Horizons residents also lie within close proximity of the 90th St corridor (Home Depot, Barnes & Noble, Fry’s grocery store, etc) and the business plaza at the SE corner of Hayden and Mountain View (JP Pancake, Ranch Pharmacy, Joyful Chinese Dining, Leccabaffi (Italian cuisine), etc).

El Paseo is a McCormick Ranch patio home subdivision located at the SE corner of Hayden & Via Linda Rds in Scottsdale, AZ.  Developed by Malouf between 1980-1984, these homes are hybrids between single-family detached properties and traditional attached townhouse/condo properties (El Paseo is legally classified as townhouse ownership).  In essence, they are unique homes that have the look and feel of single family homes (with the exception of 1 common wall with neighbor), just without the expansive backyards that low-maintenance living enthusiasts abhor.  Each El Paseo home does include of small, private backyard, many even with private pools, so they are ideal for those looking for the best of both ownership worlds:  More privacy than a typical townhouse affords, and fewer maintenance headaches than a single family home entails (HOA maintains front yard).

Heritage Terrace in McCormick Ranch is amongst the homes that dot the Via Linda corridor between Via De Ventura and Hayden Rd.  Located on the SW corner of Hayden and Via Linda, this Golden Heritage built subdivision abuts the Tierra Feliz, Mountain View East and Heritage Village (patio homes also built by Golden Heritage) neighborhoods.  It falls within the Cochise Elementary, Cocopah Middle and Chaparral High School districts.

Of the 105 homes in Heritage Terrace, all 105 are single level and 92 (88%) feature private pools.  The homes were built between 1980-1987 and average 2703 livable (heated and cooled) square feet.   The homes are primarily block construction (some have an exposed block finish, while others are finished with stucco) with a mix of tile and asphalt shingle roofs.  Zoned R-7 for lots no smaller than 7000 square feet, most properties fall on lots between 10,000-12,000 square feet, and actually reach as large as 20,000+ sq ft.  Like the lion’s share of McCormick Ranch, 2 car garages are predominant, but Heritage Terrace in one of the few subdivisions where 3 car garages are available as well.

Amongst the relatively few plans that Golden Heritage built in Heritage Terrace, the most well known is the ubiquitous “Plan 40.”  A popular seller at the time of initial development, the Plan 40 is still enticing today for its true master bedroom split (unique placement off the front bedroom is completely removed from the remaining bedrooms).  While common in newer construction, the master split was still fairly avant garde in the late ’70s and early ’80s.  Camelot offered a master split in its Embassy model (Vista De La Tierra, Palo Viento 2, Tierra Del Norte, Paradise Park Trails and Playa Del Sur subdivisions), as did Dix, Tarantini and a handful of other builders, typically in only one model per subdivision, but it was definitely not the norm.  The lone drawback to the Plan 40 for some people is that the master location is directly off the front entry.  While this is bothersome to some buyers, the lure of the added privacy more than mitigates this concern with most.

View Golden Heritage Plan 40 Floor Plan

Current pricing in Heritage Terrace at the time of this posting ranges from the upper $300,000s to the upper $600,000s (by in large, completely rebuilt properties have sold well in excess of that range).

A hop, skip and a jump from the famed walking paths of McCormick Ranch and the lakes, greenbelts, parks, golf courses, shopping, restaurants and other assorted amenities, Heritage Terrace sits in a highly desirable location.  Within walking distance of JP Pancake, Leccabafi, Joyful Chinese Dining, Busters on the Lake, Zipps Sports Grill, The Royal Barge, The Melting Pot and other McCormick Ranch favorites, Heritage Terrace is worth consideration from anyone looking to move into the McCormick Ranch area.

McCormick Ranch was the first master planned community in Scottsdale, AZ.  Development began in the early 1970s in what is considered the South Ranch today, near Hayden and Indian Bend Rds. These early McCormick Ranch properties were constructed primarily by the Suggs Co.

As development of the Ranch progressed, new subdivisions began to sprout up further north in the late ’70s. Camelot, Dix and Golden Heritage were prominent builders along the Via Linda corridor between Via De Ventura and Hayden Rd.

Click Map to Zoom

Vista De La Tierra was developed by Camelot Homes (later known as Hancock). Encompassing N. 80th Place on the South, Del Caverna on the North, and bounded by Via Linda on the East and Rotary Park & Gainey Ranch on the West, the homes in this subdivision marked a sharp departure from earlier McCormick Ranch construction. Larger models and soaring vaulted ceilings with Spanish tile roofs joined the smaller properties with low ceilings. Stucco finished exteriors took the place of exposed slump block. Larger lots made Vista De La Tierra highly sought after as well.

Lake Margherite in McCormick Ranch

Another big draw for the subdivision is the proximity to the McCormick Ranch lake system. Lake Margherite is the largest of the three neighborhood lakes, and lies just across Via Linda from N. 80th Place. Lake Angela lies just across Via Linda on E. Del Cuarzo. Fishing and boating are available to residents, and the famous multi-use paths circumnavigate the area as well.

Vista De La Tierra, along with the other subdivisions north of Via De Ventura are also located in the Chaparral School District. The district includes the excelling Cochise Elementary, Cocopah Middle and Chaparral High Schools. With test scores that routinely place at the top of the Scottsdale Unified School District, this just might be the most sought after district in the state.

Homes in Vista De La Tierra range from approximately 2000 square feet to nearly 4000 square feet. The original builder models included:

• The Regal – approximately 2004-2109 square feet, 3 or 4 bedrooms, no vaulted ceilings.
• The Monarch – approximately 2274 square feet, 3 bedrooms (den option), no vaulted ceilings.
• The Windsor – approximately 2364 square feet, 3 bedrooms, partial vaulted ceilings.
• The Chateau – approximately 2669 square feet, 4 bedrooms, partial vaulted ceilings.
• The Lancelot – approximately 2748 square feet, 4 bedrooms, partial vaulted ceilings.
• The Embassy – approximately 2914 square feet, 4 bedrooms, partial vaulted ceilings.

(View the McCormick Ranch Home Floor Plans page to view these models)

Overview of McCormick Ranch in Scottsdale AZ

In addition to the original models, there has been one instance of infill construction and total rennovation of other properties.

New Construction in McCormick Ranch

Camelot originally held back one lot on N. 80th Place. In the mid ’80s, the builder eventually built an expanded Embassy model, which features a 5th bedroom, bringing the square footage up to nearly 3500 square feet. Recently, several properties have been taken virtually all the way down to the ground. The new construction that has gone up in their place range from 3000-4000 square feet, and have sold in excess of $1 million.

There are 98 improved properties in Vista De La Tierra. They are all single level per community Covenants, Codes and Restrictions (CCRs). The average property size is 2549 Sq Ft. 90 of the 98 homes have swimming pools.

McCormick Ranch is an amazing place to live, and Vista De La Tierra is one of its finest subdivisions.
