Luxury Arizona estate in Peoria with 30kW owned solar panels, RV garage, multi-car garage, and desert landscaping—sold by Eric Ravenscroft, Top 1% REALTOR® in the Greater Phoenix Metro.

PEORIA, AZ | LUXURY ESTATE SALE | $1,550,000 ALL-CASH

This luxury estate in Peoria featured a 22-ft rolling glass wall, a $250K resort-style backyard, a massive 2,900+ sq. ft. RV garage, and a 30kW owned solar system providing zero electric bills. The sellers were long-time clients preparing to relocate back to the East Coast and needed a top-dollar sale despite two challenges: the home was one of the smaller properties in the neighborhood and backed to a busy road. Its energy efficiency, rare RV amenities, and high-end upgrades made it ideal for lifestyle-driven buyers seeking value and low long-term operating costs. The home attracted strong demand and ultimately closed all-cash at $1,550,000.

New construction Toll Brothers home in Sterling Grove, Surprise AZ with a modern exterior and paver driveway — sold by Eric Ravenscroft, Top 1% REALTOR® in the Greater Phoenix Metro.

SURPRISE, AZ | NEW CONSTRUCTION BUYER SUCCESS | UNDER MARKET VALUE IN STERLING GROVE

These buyers relocated from Texas to Surprise, AZ to be closer to their kids and grandkids, prioritizing lifestyle as much as the home itself. They chose Sterling Grove, one of Arizona’s premier gated, resort-style communities known for its championship golf course, parks, trails, and private country club. The goal: build a stylish, timeless Toll Brothers home without overspending. Through smart, intentional design-studio selections — including bold dark slate quartz counters — they achieved a high-end look while staying well under the typical $1M+ closing prices seen throughout the neighborhood.

 

This win shows how thoughtful planning, strategic design choices, and expert guidance can deliver significant value in high-demand, luxury new-construction communities. In Surprise, AZ — especially Sterling Grove — buyers can still achieve a premium lifestyle and beautiful home without exceeding budget when the build strategy is intentional from day one.

Historic brick home in Phoenix AZ with upgraded parking, gated side entrance, and multi-unit potential — sold by Eric Ravenscroft, Top 1% REALTOR® in the Greater Phoenix Metro.

PHOENIX, AZ | MULTI-UNIT PURCHASE | $3,300 RENTAL INCOME → $1,700 NET HOUSING COST

These buyers wanted to live in Scottsdale or North Phoenix, but rising prices made the monthly payments feel out of reach. To solve this, we pivoted to a multi-unit strategy, securing a property with a main unit for personal use plus two rentable spaces. Without major renovations or heavy investment, they created multiple income streams, allowing them to live in a prime location while dramatically reducing their monthly housing cost.

 

Multi-unit home with main residence + guest house + detached office

In competitive markets, multi-unit strategies can turn high-cost areas into financially viable opportunities. This win shows how income-producing solutions can reduce payment pressure, build equity faster, and unlock locations that most buyers assume are out of reach.
