The building does. Redfin put Old Town's median sale price at $588,000 for August 2026, up 16.4 percent in a year, but that figure blends 1960s townhomes with 13 story towers from 2007. Tyler starts with sales inside the same project and widens the search only when a building has too few.
Scottsdale's median was $906,900 and the county's $473,406 (Redfin, August 2026). An FHA buyer has to come in under the 2026 county limit of $557,750 (homebuyer.com), which sits below the Old Town median, and buy in a condo project the lender accepts.
District names come from the City of Scottsdale's Old Town plan; building facts come from each project's listing page.
Optima finished this 720 unit complex at 7167 E Rancho Vista Drive in 2007, beside Scottsdale Fashion Square, in a David Hovey design of steel, glass and rooftop gardens. A project that size nearly always has inside sales, so floor height, view direction and terrace size drive the adjustments.
The residences at 7175 E Camelback Road went up in 2007: 198 units over 13 stories, studios through four bedrooms, roughly 1,000 to 4,600 square feet. Plans that far apart rarely comp each other. Tyler matches size and floor first, then looks at whether the view faces the canal or the city.
ST Residential completed Safari Drive at 4747 N Scottsdale Road in 2008, with 215 flats, townhomes and live/work units around a courtyard pool, and the project won a 2010 AIA housing award. A live/work unit on the street is a different product from an upstairs flat, so each gets comps of its own type.
Built 1961 to 1969 near Chaparral and Miller roads, these townhomes form a Scottsdale historic district. One broker page lists the community as 55 plus, with homes from 770 to over 2,400 square feet. Remodeled and original units share walls here, so Tyler rates condition home by home.
The city's Old Town plan describes this district as mid century apartments and condos alongside new multifamily housing. A 1960s condo and a recent build on the same street are separate markets, so Tyler checks year built, and whether the unit began life as a rental apartment, before choosing any sale.
Landmark Homes USA built 27 contemporary townhomes at 6990 E 6th Street in 2016, two to four bedrooms each, around a lap pool and herb garden. Outdoor space differs by plan (balcony, yard or courtyard), so it gets measured, and other Aerium sales come before anything from outside the project.
Scottsdale Stadium hosts Giants spring training each year and the Arizona Canal paths run through the north side, so a unit facing either is compared with others that do. Scottsdale Unified serves most of the city; Tyler confirms the district by address.
Tyler's 2025 reports averaged 5.9 days, and 100 percent arrived on or before the promised date.
There's no posted fee. Tyler quotes each address, with the next inspection date, usually within one business day.
Yes, Tyler is on the FHA Roster. Ask your lender early whether the condo project itself is accepted.
Loloma 5 has five units and The W twelve, so outside sales are a given. Tyler picks lofts of similar age and size and explains each adjustment.
Yes. Estate work uses the date of death, divorce work may use a date the court or the parties set, and both are documented to USPAP.
