Sedona Luxury Real Estate

Sedona real estate took a hard hit with the market’s crash that started in late 2007 for Sedona luxury properties. Home prices dropped as much as 40% or more between then and the official market bottom was established for Sedona luxury homes in 2010.

Yet the Long-term fundamentals of the Sedona Real Estate market remain strong. Sedona, set amidst 160,000 acres of Forest Service property has limited land available for development. We’re an island of private property surrounded by National Forest and there is very little room to expand.
