Mesa Coronado - For Sale

Mesa Coronado is a condo community near Fiesta Mall. The community is three different phases on the same lot. This is the newest phase built in 2000. These units have neighbors living either up or down and everyone gets a one car garage.
This is a ground floor unit and is 1148 square feet. It has two bedrooms and 1.75 bathrooms. The living room has high ceilings and a view to the patio outside. The patio is not totally inclosed, so it might not be ideal for a pet or kids.


You'll love the kitchen. It looks brand new and has lovely tile floors.


Here's a view of the outside area. Since this is an end unit, you get a little more space.



The community pool is in the center of about 5 buildings. It's usually empty and has a hot tub too.
This home is priced at $170,000 and is the lowest priced 1st floor unit available. See the virtual tour on at TownHOMESonly.



Lake Park Villas - For Sale

Lake Park Villas is a condo community in The Lakes, a masterplanned community in Tempe Arizona. This is a 'D' unit with two floors and a one car garage.
This is an overview of The Lakes. While, these condos aren't directly on the water, they are in walking distance to the water and the community center. There's one pool about 25 yards from the front door and the community center is just across LakeShore Dr.

This is 1290 square feet. It has a living room (pictured above), bathroom and kitchen on the main level. There's a door to the garage. Currently the garage has been transformed into an office (fourth room), but could easily be turned into a garage again. There is some space left as a garage, but not enough for a car.


The cabinets, counter tops and appliances have all been upgraded in this lovely unit.




The masterbedroom is extra large with it's own private bathroom and walk in closet.










Not pictured are the other two upstairs rooms, an upstairs bathroom, downstairs bathroom, dining area, patio and den. This unit is priced at $180,000 and is well below comps. If you'd like to see a virtual tour, visit my website.

The Lakes - Tempe, AZ

The Lakes in Tempe, Arizona is a masterplanned community of single family homes, condos, townhomes, apartments and retail shopping. The centerpiece is a huge lake meandering in and out of various neighborhoods with a shopping center in the middle and a large community center. The community center has an Olympic size pool, kiddy pool, tennis courts, basketball court, weight room and meeting rooms.
This is an aerial of the Lakes largest condo community - Lake Park Villas. All homes come with a one car garage and you have a choice of ground floor, above the garage or two story homes. LPV has it's own pool, or you can go across the street to the community center. It's also an aerial of the smallest townhome community in the Lakes - called The Lakes. These homes are on the lake with docks. There's only 38 homes and they don't come available too often.

Harbour Village is also on the lake. It's a gated community and is the most expensive townhome community in The Lakes.



Across the street is Runaway Point. A condo community that is also on the lake. All these communities are a short walk to the community center.


Finally, there is Sandcastle. You can see the community center across the street.

What's a Condo? What's a Patio Home?

In arizona a condominium is a type of ownership. But most people that are looking at buying Real Estate are interested in the type of construction or building type.

Is it apartment style, townhouse, patio home or a single family Detached home?

An apartment style home generally will have neighbors on either side or behind and neighbors above or below you. This is a three story building with elevators for the home owners on the second and third floors.


Townhome style will have neighbors on either side, but not above or below. You'll probably get some private outdoor space with a privacy wall, but not always. The front space will be common areas. Some townhomes have carports or assigned parking. A few will have garages.



Patio Homes may have neighbors on either side. They look more like single family homes with attached walls. They have front yards that are usually maintained by the homeowners association and drive ways. They have back yards in most cases.




Single Family Detached Homes have no shared walls. This blog won't be dealing with aspects of owning this type of property.



All these properties can be single level or multiple levels. Apartment style homes can be single level, but not street level. These properties can be 2-3-4 plexes, clustered, string or high rise in nature.
