It worked out well. Now maybe she will let me buy another place down there, so The dogs and I can head there in Nov and return in April. Naturally we would let Marge come visit when she has the time! |
Oh Marge made a good desiscion, not only because of house prices, but Anthem's water bills will be going up 70%!

In December, 2010, Arizona American Water received permission to impose a 57% rate increase effective January 1, 2011, followed by additional increases January 1, 2012, and January 1, 2013 for a total of almost a 70% increase. This will immediately turn the average $130/month water bill into a $200/month water bill. This follows on the heals of a lawsuit by several residents against Del Webb/Pulte Homes for failing to disclose infrastructure funding that was not included in the costs of the homes, meaning the water company had a balloon payment due which would force the rate increase on unsuspecting owners.

It sounds like a great place to live if you can afford it!
