Sedona Luxury Real Estate - SedonaRealEstate.com

For the past couple of decades, Sedona has becoming increasingly attractive to luxury home buyers. An island of private property entirely surrounded by U.S. National Forest, it has been heralded as, “The Most Beautiful Place in America” by USA Today. It blends incredibly spectacular scenery with a mild-four season climate. Enjoying the intimacy of a small town it boasts a marvelously vibrant cultural scene and the culinary offerings of a much larger city. It attracts a surprisingly diverse and sophisticated population of fascinating people from all over the nation and the world. Second to none for natural beauty and a relaxed, gracious life-style Sedona makes for a marvelous alternative to Aspen, Carmel at a fraction of the price.

The luxury home market - $1,000,000 and above – has been relatively robust for the past five years. Astounding in the past two. 2020 sales of luxury homes set a record – even beating out 2005 and 2006. 2021 sales will close out the year at nearly double that record. Until recently, the average cost per square foot for homes over a million dollars remained fairly stable at about $350, versus $440 in 2006. Currently it’s about $500. Still, luxury homes clearly remain a relative bargain in terms of what you get for your money.

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. Surrounded by National Forest, as we are, there is very little room to expand. With these natural supply side barriers, the Sedona Real Estate buyer’s investment is much safer over the long term and can be the perfect shelter from whatever storms may come. It's still an good time in which to buy Sedona Real Estate.
