The Case for Marana
When people ask Nina where the value is in Tucson right now, she often says the same thing: Go northwest.
Marana has everything that buyers in larger metros wish they could afford: new construction homes, good schools, easy freeway access, and a growing commercial corridor along Tangerine Road.
What Marana Offers
- Dove Mountain — Ritz-Carlton resort, world-class golf, luxury homes
- Gladden Farms — Master-planned community with parks and trails
- New construction — Multiple builders actively developing in the area
- Proximity — 20 minutes to central Tucson, 30 minutes to the airport
The Bottom Line
If you're flexible on location and want the most home for your dollar in the Tucson metro, Marana deserves a serious look.
