What is the average selling price in Twyckenham Hills or Scottsdale?
KF-
Here are the quick answers from the MLS:

Remember that each neighborhood has more and less desirable areas, and locations that impact price considerably (e.g. backing to a highway). That lessens the usefulness of average numbers, but they are a good place to start a neighborhood analysis. Also note my standard caveat, “Don’t make financial decisions based on a blog post.” If you want more help understanding these neighborhoods, e-mail me.
I wonder who dropped the half-mil in cash on the ND ave property.

Very cool links. Thanks for the info!
Thanks, Nick. I was just curious. I live in Twyckenham Hills and have absolutely NO INTENTION of selling. I LOVE this area! Having lived in Granger, I think it is every bit as nice (if not nicer due to having city utilities), and the Ireland Rd. conveniences are a nice perk. I rarely have to go to Grape/Main. I LOVE that! If I wanted those kinds of traffic headaches, I would have stayed in Chicago! 🙂
By the way, if you ever need someone to speak on behalf of the 46614 zip code to prospective buyers, I’d be MORE than happy to help. This is such a wonderful community out here.
