it's funny that a lot of houses in US does have basement and attics as a storage space. I went to australia and although their home is big, they never build one with basement, all they have is another room for storage....and neither attic. miscarriage symptoms

I like the videos. I say keep 'em "raw."

If they were all PRO looking, it would lose the effect of actually driving through, unedited.

Very good.

Seems really nice. I'm moving to Phoenix to attend MMI... Might take a look at this place...

wow! it is a really good area to live in. With around 450 houses i think it will be a great locality. We can invest our money in this property and i think its cheap found it in the net.

thanks for providing some information!

I think this is one concept and is something that can go a long way if given the right push.

I have heard that it is is very peaceful there and that sounds tempting.

Agritopia is a mixed use community. This means that it is not strictly a residential development. There are also gardens, stores, educational facilities, restaurants, churches, and other uses as a part of the plan.The community of Agritopia was designed to be a neighborly community built around an urban farm. The development of Agritopia attempts to solve several problems common in current development neighborhoods lacking character and livability and the complete elimination of Arizona's agricultural heritage.

@Jay - I havn't seen the video format you had embedded in this post before. I was wondering who you used to host it and what video editing software you used? Also how much editing do you do when getting these videos ready?

Thanks,

James

Very nice neighborhood. And pretty cheap comparing to Croatia real estate market. No way that these home will be in $220 – $440K range.

I have read about Agritopia a couple of times. It is an interesting concept and moreover a novel one.

The thing about Agritopia that captured my attention was how simple the life there was and also the quality of life there. The atmosphere there is also a perfect backdrop to it too. The streets lined with trees is a treat says my brother.

Jay,

Get rid of the shakiness and you're done. Great tone - friendly and relaxed.

Well done!

Not a bad video at all.

Agritopia is my wife's favorite neighborhood and it's definitely unique (Morrison Ranch is another "different" community).

It doesn't look like it from the street, but some of the two story town homes have pretty big backyards. I was impressed with my friends home when I took the tour. It looked like a 1600 square foot home but was actually around 3,000 (I think) square feet and it had a nice size backyard.

I remember when Agritopia first opened, we met with the builders and other agents and were given tours along with the "dream" of the community.

To this day, I still think it's neat that they wanted to force people to walk to their front door in order to be able to say "Hi!" to the neighbor. The layout of the zoning and distance to nearby stores was equally impressive.

A throwback to the old days :)

Thanks for sharing your idea of how to change our views of hosting an open house. If you live in or target a neighborhood that has several homes for sale you could ask a lender or warrenty company to market a neighborhood open house to drive traffic in the neighborhood on a particular day and set time each month. Also, I put door hangers or home info cards on at least a 100 homes surrounding the target home. Don't forget to bring your laptop and have your website open so they can sign on (if they are not with another agent) to view other homes in the area to look at. With just that, you have their info right there in your lead manager! There are so many different ways to increase traffic...keep the ideas coming!

Very nice. Agritopia is very unique. The first time my wife and I drove through it we were half loving it and half concerned it may be a cult - if that makes sense. Everything seemed so perfect and nice that it surely meant something was wrong ...

Nice job on this Streets of Phoenix edition! And extra kudos for the Jimmy Buffett!

Very nice- this is one of my favorite neighborhoods-and yet to take the hounds to Cosmos's- I am sure they would have a blast.

Excellent job. Your skills just keep setting the bar higher for everyone. Thanks for sharing.

This is going to be one of the future ways realtors will be able to showcase neighborhoods online. I think your way ahead of the curve and keep up the great work.
