Scottsdale fared better then the other parts of the Phoenix valley.  Scottsdale's attractiveness as a great place to live, a vacation destination, lack of land and good city management has helped keep demand up. 

South Scottsdale took the biggest hit with a 20% decline.  I'm sure the area surrounding downtown Scottsdale and the Scottsdale/Thomas intersections did better, but the numbers were pulled down by other parts in South Scottsdale that have less demand.

In 2007, a total of 4,120 single family homes sold.  This is 20% less then the 5,150 that sold in 2006.  The median home price for the year is $579,000 and is not a big decline from $595,000 in 2006.

A total of 2,595 condos and townhomes sold in Scottsdale in 2007, compared to 2,900 in 2006.  The median price for the year decreased from $264,005 to $254,835.  Not a big decline either. 

Please not how many condos/townhomes sold compared to single family homes.  Scottsdale is a big market for this type of real estate because it's attractive as a second home market, which drives demand for condos and town homes in Scottsdale.  Find a condo/town-home in Scottsdale.
