Water, fairways and the sub association a home belongs to set most values here. MRPOA lists 45 member associations, each with dues on top of a $265 master assessment for 2026. Redfin's 3 month median was $1,024,506 through August 2026, with 57 median days on market.
That median mixes gated lake homes, 1970s houses and 2008 condos, so its 33.4 percent yearly jump likely reflects which homes closed. The county median is $473,406 (Redfin, August 2026). With a 2026 FHA limit of $557,750 (homebuyer.com), FHA condo buyers should confirm project approval early.
Custom single family homes on larger lots, wrapped by Lake Margherite, Lake Nino and Lake Angela, many with private pools (Bryce Hull Realty). Frontage and which lake the yard faces change the comp set. Tyler looks first at Island sales on the same water, and only then at lake sales elsewhere in the ranch.
A guard gated patio home and townhouse community with waterfront lots on several lakes, run by a self managed HOA on the MRPOA list. Inside that one gate, a unit on the water and a unit facing a parking court are different products, so Tyler splits them before reading any Las Palomas sale.
Single level patio homes behind a guard gate on the McCormick Ranch Golf Club course, with eight community pools (Bryce Hull Realty). Fairway frontage gets no assumed premium. Tyler checks matched sales of Sandpiper homes on and off the course, then notes what sits behind the lot: fairway, tee box or cart path.
One of the earliest subdivisions in the ranch, built roughly 1973 to 1982, mostly single level and close to the golf course and the Paseo Village shopping center. After five decades of remodels, two houses with the same floor plan can be far apart in condition, so the inspection notes outweigh the square footage.
Santa Fe has 366 patio homes in two phases, run as Santa Fe I and II on the MRPOA list. Phase 1 is mostly single level; phase 2 adds a few two story plans, and both open onto Camelback Walk. Tyler compares within the same phase first because story count and dues can differ.
Phase 1 is detached single family housing. Phases 2 and 3 are patio homes and townhouses with shared walls, some beside the golf course or a lake (Bryce Hull Realty), and MRPOA lists Heritage Village II and III as separate HOAs. Tyler never puts attached and detached sales in one grid here.
A gated condominium community at the southwest corner of the ranch: 480 units built in 2008 around a 10 acre private park (Sibbach). It is decades newer than most McCormick Ranch housing. Comps come from other newer gated condo projects, and the HOA budget and reserves are read before a value is set.
Scottsdale Unified serves the ranch, including Cochise Elementary on North 84th Street (MRPOA). The Indian Bend Wash greenbelt is an 11 mile flood control project (City of Scottsdale), so a lot backing it gets a flood map check and is compared with others that back it.
Tyler's 2025 reports averaged 5.9 days, and 100 percent arrived on or before the promised date.
It's quoted per address and appraisal type, with no posted fee. Tyler usually replies within one business day with the quote and next inspection date.
Against other waterfront sales in McCormick Ranch first. One local guide says boating without shoreline easement rights is allowed only on Camelback Lake and Lake Margherite, so the lake matters.
Only as a fallback. The search starts inside McCormick Ranch and the same sub association.
Yes. Estate reports can use a date of death value and divorce reports a set date, documented to USPAP.
