ABOUT DOUGLAS

 Douglas is the premier southwestern border community, the City of Douglas in 2006, as part of the southeast Arizona region, was listed as one of the top 100 places to live in America by Bizjournals.  Situated along the U.S.-Mexico border, Douglas is a captivating crossroads where Hispanic, Anglo and Native American cultures have mixed for hundreds of years.  The Douglas community continues to show signs of growth.  Through the leadership of the Douglas Economic Development Office, Douglas is not only investing in infrastructure, but is developing partnerships and strategies for effective and sustainable economic development.

ABOUT THE PROPERTY YOU ARE BIDDING ON  

Lot is in a plotted Subdivision Just North of Douglas, Arizona, a stones throws away from the Douglas golf course. This lot is undeveloped but there are model homes in the developed section of this subdivision. The taxes are less than $20 and paid until October 2010, there is no upkeep and this would be classified as a mid to long term investment depending on the economy. I have heard that there are plans in the works to expand the Douglas golf course to a 700 acre World Class Golf Course. If this happens I do not need to tell you what would happen to the value of this property. Douglas is East of Tucson and a hotspot as a weekend retreat for year around Tucson and Phoenix residents since it is in the high desert and the temperatures are not as hot as Tucson and Phoenix. I believe this area will eventually become a favorite for baby boomer retirees due to the mild climate, golf, low cost medical and dental care and the overcrowded conditions in Phoenix and Tucson. The Cochise Community College is approximately 6 or 7 miles west of the subdivision. Although the subdivision is not in the city limits of Douglas it is right on the Northern City Limits Border Line and I expect it will be annexed in the future making city water and sewer available. Tucson is approximately one hours drive West.

DOUGLAS GOLF COURSE; RATED THE 12th BEST COURSE IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA

 With a county permit an RV may be parked on the lot now. So your investment can be used and enjoyed immediately upon signing the contract and making your first $75 monthly payment and used as a snowbird retreat from the harsh Northern Winters without paying high lot rent elsewhere. Electricity, water and phone are available near the subdivision. Reason for selling is that I have lung cancer and need the cash for medical bills now. I paid a high price for this lot due to its potential, especially if the plans for the World Class Golf Course go through. There are higher priced homes near the golf course now, along Golf Course Road, which is in the City Limits. I will be happy to email plat maps and other information about the area to serious buyers although this information is available in the photos and on the internet. Just do a Google search on Douglas, AZ or Bisbee, AZ. Bisbee is the county seat, an historic mining town built into the side of a hill. Today with its unique shops and sidewalk cafes it reminds one of a mini San Francisco. Historic Tombstone is just down the road further West.

The lot can be seen from Business Route 10 (Hwy 80) (the property is located between Hwy 191 & Hwy 80), however there is a vacant field between the lot and highway so one would need to drive through Douglas to North Washington Avenue and turn North to reach the subdivision and the lot. You will see the model home signs along the way. The subdivision sits right on the North City Limits Line. 

The Tri-Cities of Douglas, Pirtleville and Augua Prieta, Sonora Mexico have a population of approximately 100,000 and modern low cost medical, dental facilities and low cost medication, as well as stores like a Super Wal-Mart along with everything metropolitan areas have to offer. The area is growing fast and Douglas has recently added a state of the art fitness center. I mentioned that just to the West of Douglas are old mining towns like Bisbee, the County Seat of Cochise County, that has old west charm combined with sidewalk cafes and unique shops. Further west are historic towns like Tombstone that are still much as they were in the old west except for the trolley that will take you on a tour back through the days of Jesse James and Doc Holliday when the Old West was the new frontier and fortunes were made and lost on the turn of a card. A town where hard working miners and cowboys came for supplies and to blow off steam and gamblers, gun fighters and girls of the night came seeking fortune and fame. It is now a tourist town that will take you back in time to the days when the West was really wild. There are ghost towns that were once alive with commerce and action as well as old mining claims, some which are still active. Today this area is alive with tourists and on hot summer weekends it is flooded with campers from Phoenix and Tucson seeking a break from the heat and hectic city life during the week.

The interactive map will give you a better idea of just where the lot is situated in respect to the golf course and the city limits of Douglas. It lies just North of the city limit line. I believe it is just a matter of time until it is incorporated into the city. Giving you access to all city utilities. This is truely one of those "location - location - location" lots that is poised ideally for an increase in value. This is definitely a growth area with demographics in your favor, the baby boomer generation is just begining to hit retirement age and this area has highly desirable characteristics for the retiree, a mild year around climate, golf and probably most important of all, access to low cost medical and dental care. The Mexican Border is only a few minutes drive away and senior citizens have long been making trips from Phoenix and Tucson to Mexico for low medication prices and low cost dental care. Agua Prieta is a larger city of approximately 100,000 residents they have Modern Medical Facilities as well as a Super WalMart, Fine Dining Establishments, Arts and Entertainment that you would find in any metropolitan area.

THE LOT YOU ARE BIDDING ON COULD BE CLASSIFIED "LOCATION" - "LOCATION" - "LOCATION"; IT IS IN THE RIGHT PLACE FOR ANY EXPANSION
 
I KNOW THERE ARE $600 LOTS OUT THERE, BUT BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU INVEST YOUR HARD EARNED DOLLARS IN. CHEAPER IS USUALLY NOT  BETTER
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
I DID AN MLS COMP CHECK FOR LAND SIMILAR TO THIS PLOT IN THE DOUGLAS AREA. THE LOWEST PRICED LOT I FOUND WAS $1,000 HOWEVER IT WAS A LONG WAY FROM DOUGLAS AND YOU WOULD NEED A HUMMER TO GET THERE (IT MAY NOT HAVE LEGAL ACCESS) , THE HIGHEST PRICED SIMILAR LOT I FOUND WAS IN THE DOUGLAS CITY LIMITS AND WAS LISTED AT $15,000
 
I AM NOT A REALTOR, NOR A CITY PLANNER; BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT YOU NEED TO BE, TO SEE THAT AS THE CITY OF DOUGLAS EXPANDS IT WILL INCORPORATE THE SUBDIVISION WHERE THE PROPERTY THAT YOU ARE CONSIDERING PLACING A BID ON IS LOCATED. THAT IN ITSELF WOULD SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE THE VALUE AND IF THE GOLF COURSE EXPANSION GOES THROUGH THE PRICE WOULD GO MUCH HIGHER.
