Phoenix Realtor Warns About Online Property Auctions

The Phoenix news radio station KTAR has warning to avoid online property auctions. The story states that the Realtor "asked not to be identified"!

Here's what the Phoenix Realtor had to say:

"One Valley realtor says she's against them and warns of some pitfalls."

"The banks and developers are using them as an avenue to get rid of properties," she said. "Developers are trying anything at this time to sell their properties and get rid of them because they're in so deep."

Commonly, the violation of the mortgage is a default in payment of a promissory note, secured by a lien on the property.

Show Low Housing Bubble - Collapse of Real Estate Market

The housing bubble has hit the White Mountains! I have learned that at least three large White Mountains real estate businesses are very close in closing up shop any day now.



The real estate market in the Show Low, Pinetop, and Greer, Arizona metro areas has collapsed. This is a developing story check back for updates.

Illegally Subdivided Land Rocks Show Low Real Estate Market

Illegally subdivided land across the White Mountains region has just took a big knife stab in the whole Show Low, Greer, Pinetop, and White Mountains real estate market.

This is a developing story at this time. This is could be a Class Five Felony is found convicted of this severe crime.

One Show Low Realtor has stated "I don't want to go to jail".

Waiting on Governor Janet Napolitano For Help

Hundreds maybe thousands of Apache County land owners are owning land illegally subdivided in Apache County!

Thousands of hard working U.S. citizens across the U.S. may be holders of worthless Arizona land in Apache County. I have learned that thousands of acres of Apache County has been illegally subdivided.

At this time Apache County is waiting on the Governor of Arizona - Janet Napolitano for help in this crisis.

This meltdown could be a serious meltdown in the Apache County development.

Concho Moves In Mysterious Ways

This Vice Mayor of Concho, Arizona tells me that workers are moving along quickly with the Concho Wall - this wall will shield Concho Valley Unit 4A residents of the noise and trafic of the Concho West Shore subdivision.



Bravo! Progress is being made every second in Concho, Arizona!

Illegal Subdivisons in Arizona - Real Estate Agents Warned

I find this information on illegal subdivisions very valuable to any Arizona land investor or Arizona land owner. Also if you are a Realtor or real estate agent in the State of Arizona in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Maricopa, Show Low, Concho, Pinetop, Snowflake, or Tucson you need to read this information. A.R.S.§32-2165(B) designates illegal subdividing as a class 5 Felony. I just talked with a White Mountains real estate agent up in Show Low that didn't want to go to jail or prison. These real estate agents are very scared.

This was written by Bill Day and published in the State of Arizona Department of Real Estate Bulletins.

You can request an investigation with the State of Arizona Department of Real Estate. The Department is authorized to investigate and take action when someone violates real estate law or the Commissioner’s rules. On the left side bar is an option to request an investigation. You just need to fill out the forms. You can also email the real estate investigations at this email address: investigations@azre.gov

Illegal subdividers, persons assisting them, and real estate agents, beware – when ADRE finds you, we will take action – and do not expect a slap on the hand.

Illegal Subdividers Beware!

By Bill Day
The new ADRE administration under Commissioner Elaine Richardson has placed a high priority on combating illegal subdividing. The Commissioner has created a special unit within the ADRE’s Investigations Division to deal entirely with illegal subdividing and subdivision violations. In addition, ADRE has been working closely with Counties and other State agencies to detect illegal subdividing, assist in prosecuting illegal developers and bring the properties into compliance with state laws and county ordinances. Illegal subdividers beware–there are many eyes out there looking for you!

In order to determine whether an illegal subdivision has been or is being created, one needs to review the Statutes. The definitions related to subdividing include
A.R.S §32-2101(1), “Acting in Concert”, A.R.S. §32-2101(14), “Common Promotional Plan”, A.R.S. §32-2101(53), “Subdivider”, and A.R.S. §32-2101(54) “Subdivision”. The statutes for violations of subdivision laws A.R.S §32-2181(A)(D) and
A.R.S.§32 2183(F). In addition, A.R.S. §32-2164 specifically relates to licensees. Also, A.R.S.§32-2165(B) designates illegal subdividing as a class 5 Felony.

In A.R.S. §32-2101(16), “Contiguous “ refers to lots, parcels or fractional interests that share a common boundary or point. This relates only to properties that are not located within a subdivision development. Any properties within a subdivision development, whether they share a common boundary or point or not, are automatically deemed to be contiguous. Therefore, if one owns or has interest in more than five parcels anywhere within the development, that person is required to comply with the subdivision laws.

Even if lots or parcels are not contiguous, if they are part of a common promotional plan or parties are determined to be acting in concert, the creation of 6 or more lots or parcels would also require compliance with the subdivision laws pursuant to A.R.S. §32-2181. Acting in concert is the most prevalent method persons use to attempt to avoid the subdivision laws. To determine whether persons are acting in concert, the Department may consider any one or more of the following:
• Familial relationship between parties.
• Business relationship between parties to buy, sell
and/or divide property.
• Officers, members, managers or directors, or person owning interest in one or more business entities or partnerships, and/or partners in one or more businesses.
• Lot release provisions to enable further divisions.
• Use of same surveyor, same real estate agent, and/ or notary public by multiple parties to the transactions in question.
• Maps, drawings, or surveys of the parcel indicating further division.
• Recorded or unrecorded conditions, covenants and restrictions, or deed restrictions that may indicate development activity.
• The timing of applications for permits for septic tanks, wells or other infrastructure.
• Well-share or road maintenance agreements between or among actual or prospective lot owners.
• The number and placement of easements.
• The manner in which transactions are structured
and/or closed.

Why do persons avoid the subdivision laws? It’s simple – ignorance, money and greed. They may buy a parcel of land and proceed to divide and sell it without fully exploring the related rules and statutes. Or they try to avoid the costs of properly subdividing the property. As a result, the purchasers do not get what they are entitled to. Most purchasers think they are getting a good deal, until something goes wrong, for example, an inadequate water supply, an inadequate water supply for fire suppression, inadequate flood protection, emergency vehicles not being able to get to the residence because of inadequate roads, poor air quality due to dirt roads, roads not up to county standards, and the list goes on. Ultimately either the purchasers have to pay for the improvements or the taxpayers must pay, when the local government is forced to provide the facilities for health and safety reasons. Illegal subdividing hurts everyone.

ADRE’s mission is to protect the public — this responsibility is taken very seriously. Real estate licensees are subject to revocation of their licenses. Illegal subdividers, persons assisting them, and real estate agents, beware – when ADRE finds you, we will take action – and do not expect a slap on the hand.

How To Get All Your Money Back From Your Concho Arizona Land Purchase

I bought some land in Concho and was shocked to find my Concho lot listed on the Arizona Real Estate Department website.

A developer had issued a public report for a Concho, Arizona subdivision and my lot was listed on the public report!!

I contacted the Arizona Department of Real Estate Public Reports Office in Tucson, Arizona. I wanted to know about this public report and where is my copy of it that I never received nor was I notified by the State or the land seller.

The people in the Tucson public reports office were shocked that public reports were issued for land already sold in Concho, Arizona.

I was also very thankful of the Arizona Department of Real Estate office in Tucson. They quickly looked into the situation and started an investigation.

A public report is issued for future subdivisions and land sales.

In my experience a developer published a public report in a Concho subdivision for land already sold. He used to own it before he sold it. The land purchaser of the lot in the public report was me!

The good thing is that this developer quickly gave all my money back from my land purchase. Money from my land purchase was transferred into my Paypal account. The land seller very quickly refunded my entire purchase price of the land. I was very happy with developers customer service of this situation. I was kind of caught in the middle of this and just wanted my money back.

White Mountains Real Estate Agents Going To Prison or Jail?

A White Mountains real estate agent told me that "I don't want to go to jail or prison". This real estate agent was talking about the land sales that have been going on in the Apache County area. These real estate people are very scared on the situation going on.

The latest talk of the town is mortgage fraud in Concho, Arizona and possible illegal land sales in Concho. Land sales in and around the golf course and lake area have raised some eyebrows. Some large land loans have been recorded in Concho this past year with inflated land appraisals. One large mortgage note or land loan was in Concho Valley Unit 3 others are all around the golf course and lake.

Land Fraud Hits Concho

Concho lots, land, and acreages have gotten new land loans this past year. This is a very bad situation for the whole area. These real estate developers have built up inventory of Arizona land in Concho. Land sales in Concho, Arizona were recorded with inflated prices. The real estate developers got new land loans with the inflated land prices of the recorded land sale.

Illegal Arizona Land Sales With Financing

Apache County residents and land owners are getting letters with offers of land with financing. A local Apache County real estate business is selling Arizona land with financing and setting up illegal subdivisions within a subdivision. Yuck!

Concho, Arizona Land Owner is Selling its Property

Some large Concho, Arizona land owners in the area are selling off the property .... This was even news to the local realtor!!

I hope 2008 is a much better year for Concho, Arizona and Apache County!

Homes For Sale in Concho - Manufactured Homes

The quickest way for a house in the White Mountains is to purchase a brand new manufactured home or factory built home. If you are a smart shopper you can find wholesale new manufactured homes from $35,000 and up.

Cavco Industries, Inc. - A Southwest Leader of manufactured and factory built homes. many floorplans and options to choose from has a factory in downtown Phoenix.

Manufactured homes are all around the rim country of Arizona including Payson, Heber, Show Low, Snowflake, and even Greer.

I will never forget eating lunch at a Greer, Arizona restaurant and looking across a meadow and seeing a mobile home on the hillside! I asked the waitress if that was a mobile home up on the hill? She told me she doesn't see a mobile home on the hill! I guess the Greer real estate and the Greer locals do not want everyone to know that manufactured homes are in Greer!!!

Make sure to get all the proper permits from the local government and county officials.

Concho Arizona Land Video of Concho Valley Unit 6 AZ

Toured Concho, Arizona on December 26, 2007. I took 87 up from Scottsdale and drove by Fountain Hills, Payson, Heber, and Show Low. Driving in my rental car took a little under 3 hours to Show Low. Very little snow was still on the ground from the overnight snowstorm.

I filmed Concho Valley Unit 6 from corner of Osage Land and Ranch Drive. I pan over to the Town of St. Johns water tank and property. Town officials have told me at some point the water tank will be removed. At this time no water is privided in this Concho, Arizona subdivision. On the backside of Concho Valley Unit 6 St. Johns, Arizona has an active city well that provides municipal water water to St. Johns.



No luxury homes, mobile homes, or manufactured homes have been built in this subdivision yet. This Arizona Land is flat with no pine trees. Cattle roam the land at times. This is open range land. You can fence off your property to keep the wildlife and cattle away.

Talked with a few local real estate specialists. Things are real slow right now and slow for the whole White Mountains real estate market.

One of the Vernon real estate mogils was on vacation down in Tucson??? Yes Tucson.

The Windsor Valley Ranch subdivision has a nice sign along the State Route 61. I did not see anyone touring that land nor any sales people around on the property.

I also did a quick tour of the new homes for sale in Show Low. The Show Low Bluff development is one of the largest developments in the White Mountains.

In all it was a nice day trip to see the White Moutains and Concho.

Expired Domain Names

Looks like another Concho, Arizona domain name will go up for auction maybe??

Real estate Domain Names can be goood investments.

A good place to find quality expired domain names is at the domain name auctions!

Currently the busiest real estate activity in Concho, Arizona is the weeds growing in Concho Lake!
