Living and Buying in Old Town Scottsdale

Old Town Scottsdale is the cultural and social center of the city — a walkable, mixed-use neighborhood where mid-century ranch homes sit alongside new luxury condos, world-class restaurants, and the Scottsdale Arts District. For engineers who want urban convenience without sacrificing Arizona's outdoor lifestyle, Old Town delivers.

The Market

The Old Town market is predominantly condos and townhomes, with single-family homes scattered through surrounding streets like Elm, Monterey, and Miller Road. Prices range from the high $400s for a well-located condo to $2M+ for a custom single-family home. Price-per-square-foot runs higher here than almost anywhere else in Scottsdale — you're paying for location and walkability, and the market consistently validates that premium.

Why Engineers Choose Old Town

10 minutes to Scottsdale Airpark, home to Axon, Benchmark Electronics, and dozens of aerospace and defense contractors
20 minutes to North Scottsdale tech offices via the 101
Walk to Scottsdale Fashion Square, the waterfront restaurants, and the weekly farmers market
Strong short-term rental performance if you want an investment component alongside primary use
Dense amenity base means you can go car-free for evenings and weekends

What to Know Before You Buy

HOA fees in Old Town high-rises can be substantial — $400–$1,200/month depending on building amenities. I'll pull the HOA financials, reserve study, and meeting minutes for any building you're serious about before you make an offer. You should know the reserve fund health and any upcoming special assessments before you're under contract.

Old Town also has some of the most competitive offer dynamics in the valley. Properties priced correctly move fast, often with multiple offers. Having your pre-approval in order and being ready to analyze comps quickly is essential.
