Scottsdale Housing Market Update
It’s safe to say the Scottsdale real estate market boomed in 2020. According to Redfin over the last 12 months housing prices have gone up 15% in Scottsdale. The average home value was $510,000 in the beginning of 2020 and now in March is at $630,000. Interest rates were below 3% for most of the year and are now just starting to rise past 3%.
The average days a house was on the market is down to 41 days in March of 2021 from 54 in January of 2020. So that leaves the question, what does the rest of 2021 look like for the Scottsdale market? Realtor.com’s most recent estimates say homes will jump another 11.4% over 2020’s levels.

Alex is The Best
Alex is a very honest and knowledgeable agent. I was very impressed with his honesty and integrity. He had my best interests in mind and was not merely interested in closing the sale. I have worked with many agents, but Alex is the best! - jharsh2323 Zillow
Great Negotiator
Alex was a wonderful agent. He quickly learned my taste and showed me only houses that were within my parameters. He negotiated a price $25,000 less then asking in a competitive area. I give him my highest recommendation. - drwangelo Zillow
High Ethics and Values
Alex was incredible. So many Real Estate Agents feel like "Sales People" who are not genuine and just out for their next commission. Alex on the other hand was very down to earth. He was a great listener and really showed he heard what we were saying instead of trying to talk us into something else. Also, we loved that he is a family man and operates with extremely high ethics and values.Should we ever move again Alex will certainly be the first one we call. Literally can't recommend him enough!!!! - ChrisMaddox, Zillow
Highly Recommend Alex
Alex is a "plan-ahead-to-be-well-prepared type" real estate agent. As well, he is laid back & gave us plenty of room to explore our needs. First after much discussion, Alex took us to our chosen neighborhood to check out the market. This for us to get a good idea of what we could afford, & for him to get a very good idea of exactly what we were looking for & liked in a home. A couple of weeks later, Alex took us out again, this time narrowing our home search down to 3-5 homes. He listened to us well as he was right on the money - we chose one of the homes & Alex wrote up the offer. He did a great job negotiating in our price range, getting some extras thrown in. Alex pushed for a timely closing that coincided with the closing on our former property. All in all, because of Alex' expertise and that of the Sibbach Team, our home-sellling/buying process was seamless and went incredibly smoothly. Alex offered continued support throughout our move. We highly recommend Alex as a R/E agent who can communicate, listen, search, find, close, and move you into your next home with little stress. Thanks, Alex, for being so capable! Sincerely, Maureen & Joe Wright Zillow
Great Knowledge of the Area
I worked with Alex mostly via email and text as I was only in town for a short time to view homes and it was a seemless process. Not only does he know the area very well, quickly narrow in on the needs/wants of his clients and have a great customer service philosopy, but he also helps with many related connections necessary (mortgage broker, handyman, housekeeper, etc.) - especially when buyng a 2nd home from out of state - user0255910 Zillow
No Pressure from Alex
Alex is one of the most impressive professionals we've ever had the pleasure to work with. He is working your agenda at all times, he doesn't pressure you on time or on what you want or don't want to see. His knowledge of the Scottsdale area is impressive, he's honest and candid, and he's with you right up through signing the closing papers. If you let him know what you want, there is every chance he will find it for you. We have recommended him to family and friends, and, should we be in the market again, we could certainly turn to Alex. - jeri nowakowski Zillow
Responsive and Knowledgeable
I have purchased numerous properties on both the east and west coasts. As such I've worked with many real estate agents. Alex was extraordinarily responsive, knowledgeable, and on top of his game. He was very efficient with our time and made the buying process enjoyable. I'd def use Alex again and would highly recommend him. A true professional! - wclbanker Zillow
Honest and Conscientious
Alex is the BEST realtor I have ever had an experience with. He made our home buying experience so fun, smooth and peaceful. He really cares about his clients and put our needs first. He is also honest and conscientious- he will not manipulate or push you towards something at all. He provides a balanced perspective and will help get you not just a house, but a home. We had just moved to the area 2 months prior and it was refreshing and comforting to have someone like Alex help up find our home. To say Alex was a God send is an understatement. If we ever sell our home and buy another one, we will definitely have Alex help us and would recommend him completely! - user4270428 Zillow
