Parties on the Terrace

Some of the most happening social events around Prescott are the parties held on the terrace at the clubhouse in Prescott Lakes.  Even if you don't live in this subdivision, you can still join in.  In this episode, we explain how that works and why you don't want to miss out.

Video Transcript

good afternoon my fellow pickle peeps hello hello hello Diana Randall bro here coming at you from Prescott Arizona happy to be here yeah we’re starting off our new year yeah we’re getting the gears going uh we’re excited to be back in the action started some action and we had a lot of fun uh New Year’s Eve New Year’s Eve great time and so we wanted to talk about we actually live in Prescott Lakes we wanted to talk about the amazing social amenities that Prescott Lakes has to offer all right so if you don’t know Prescott Lakes Prescott Lakes is the largest subdivision in city of Prescott and I believe it is the second largest in the Prescott area there’s one subdivision on PV it’s a bit bigger yes it’s a big place they have about 1500 Lots probably about and now I’m saying maybe 1300 1350 have been developed totally yeah just some idea how big that is so Under the Umbrella as I call it of Prescott Lakes are about 13 different neighborhoods yeah we all go to the one center of the of the whole development which is the club and uh so there they have a private restaurant it’s amazing they always have something fun going on always always always and now that covet is lifted we’re back back in action so we wanted to talk about this New Year’s Eve we actually went to the club it was open for New Year’s Eve they had a live band they had an amazing Buffet um and we had a good time The Time Of Our Lives it was a good time yeah just to be clear so if you live in Prescott Lakes you will belong to the club that those two go together it is uh it’s not optional you you pay monthly dues you belong to the club you belong to the athletic center uh and if you’re interested that we can give you more information so here’s a great idea if you’re looking here in Prescott you find a house that you absolutely adore and but you want the social amenities that Prescott Lakes has to offer but your home Falls outside of that jurisdiction so to speak you can get a social membership I think it’s 60 or 65 dollars a month and that enables you to come to the restaurant and enjoy all the social events that they have one being uh New Year’s Eve we were there you could get tickets to that and you could go the other being um party on the Terrace which is always fun right yeah so the party and the Terrace they do that two three times a month oh I don’t know that much but yeah well it depends on the month this month they’re doing I think they have three of them but uh it depends on the month but uh yeah they’ll have live bands uh there’s a nice Terrace outside the club and has a beautiful view uh the weather’s good they’ll do it outside there’s a fire pit people hang out by the fire pit they’ll have live music they’ll have a great buffet dinner yeah it’s really uh dancing drinking it’s lovely it’s lovely lovely the other good thing is uh there are clubs within the club here at Prescott Lakes and with the social membership you are allowed to join some of those not all but some if it doesn’t involve the athletic center you can still come do bridge club book club The Women’s Club uh there’s a variety of them that are open to you so if you’re new here you can still kind of enjoy some of the Prescott Lakes social amenities we have a lot of friends who do not live in Prescott Lakes proper but they belong and we go out we have a great time yeah and meet them for dinner meet them for lunch the club is always having amazing brunches they have a beautiful Easter brunch Mother’s Day Mother’s Day Father’s Day so if you’re always kind of Prescott legs they’re essentially two options if you’re a big golfer you may want to join the golf as a golf membership golf memberships are not uh limited to just people in Prescott lake so you get a golf membership for a little bit more you’ll get access to the Athletic Club and everything so right uh if you do that it what you pay is marginally more than what you would pay if you lived in Prescott if you’re not a golfer do the social membership 60 65 absolutely no-brainer have a good time yeah and we’ll see you there you know eat in the restaurant we’re always there and it is a tremendous way to meet people new to the area yeah lots of people are not from here and they become members and it’s great to meet people and make some new connections yeah absolutely we highly recommend it we love the club we love the social membership so don’t be sad like oh I love what it has to offer but I bought a house outside of Prescott Lakes not to worry yeah we can still make it happen and you can have fun and we’ll see you there absolutely okay another tip if you’re into tips check out our free information site you can reach it at pickle411.com lots of information about real estate about events things to eat places to go things to do it’s all there whether you’re a buyer seller somewhere in between there’s something waiting for you that will Astound an amazing maybe I hope so all right friends that’s

New Paperwork Requirements

Real estate runs on paperwork, and if you've bought or sold any recently, you may have been struck by just how much there is.  Well, the Prescott real estate association (PAAR), keepers of the local MLS, have just come down with new rules that could lead to fines if some of that paperwork isn't completed quickly enough.  Find out about these latest gotchas and what we think about them in this episode.

Video Transcript

hello top of the morning to you good morning folks this is diana randall bro here prescott lady and sidekick respectively that’s right we are your husband and wife duo here in prescott arizona happy to bring you here show you around hopefully you’ll stay we’ve made so many great friends from clients it’s just been um that’s part of the happy part of our time it’s a great time guys yeah and there’s a reason why people come here it’s a great time so today we wanted to talk about some new things that are coming up in real estate yeah lots of rule changes lots of little changes yeah this is actually this is something that should have been done a while ago so i was glad to see this come down uh so the new rule from the local association is that you cannot go live so you’re selling a home your home cannot go live on mls until you have uh if you need disclosures for an hoa or lead-based pain so lead-based pain is anything before 1978. that’s right home was built before 1978 you’re going to need a lead-based pain disclosure so you’ll know that right away uh if you’re in an hoa you will need an hoa disclosure this is paperwork uh in particular the hoa it could be a pain yeah someone more complicated yes some can be complicated uh it has to be done and posted as part of the mls record before your home goes live in mls let me tell you why that makes sense from a buyer perspective so we have buyers that that come in they like a home we know there’s an hoa and we want to make an offer part of that offer is who pays the hoa the transfer fees basically um if we don’t have a disclosure then we can’t really make the offer yeah yeah so what that does is yeah so essentially that’s the listing agent making the buyer agent call the hoa to find out what’s going on and that’s not the buyer agent’s job that’s the listing agent’s job yeah so uh buyer agents have gotten smart and what they do is they send an offer that anything that’s undisclosed you have to pay and sellers didn’t like that sellers aren’t happy with that they’re like wait a minute i so we’ve been why am i paying that things have been getting sort of better we’ve been seeing more compliance there well now if you go live and you do not have an hoa disclosure or a lead based disclosure if you need that uh the listing agent will be fined like just straight up so uh that’s good because listing it that’s part of the listing agent’s job it’s a little bit of homework it’s a little bit of homework part of the negotiation uh in particular in hoa areas where those fees can be substantial um so it’s something that needs to be done and now now you have to do it yeah it’s fair and you should not expect a buyer or the buyer’s agent to have to figure that out and sometimes the seller you know maybe they’ve lived there 20 years like jeez i don’t even remember do i have to pay a transfer fee yeah i think there is a transfer fee like if you live in prescott lakes there is a transfer stream um all sellers have to pay a disclosure fee regardless period end of sentence yeah we all know that but there’s some transfer fees if you’re in an hoa some don’t have it some do and you should also disclose what your ho your quarterly hoa is is it monthly is it annual is it quarterly and there’s always something to know that yeah that’s an important part of their yeah decision they’re like you know i have so much of a budget for my house note how much is my uh hoa going to be because if it’s too much i might have to reconsider and go to a different area all important stuff if you were out there and you’re the buyer and so anyway we’re kind of excited that our local listing service is putting that into effect yes um because sometimes my buyers are here for a short time they want to write that offer up and the hoa is not open until monday yeah if they’re here in a weekend so we can’t give them the answer yes some of the the transfer fees involved are negotiated how are you going to negotiate if you don’t know what they are exactly so uh it this is the was the right thing to do we supported 100 yes and we’re excited yeah we’re excited in our listings we’ve always done this because it’s the it’s the way to do it right if you’re working with buyers you know that uh and and we work with both so uh we’ve kind of always done that we’re glad to see it one thing i will point out if you are a seller this is yet one more thing that has to be done before your home can go live uh generally it’s it from the time you sell a listing agreement until your home is hitting on all cylinders it’s on mls and agents out there are seeing it one or two weeks uh you know the more that the listing agent has to do the longer that takes yep so uh that’s true understand now that uh this is yet one more thing that has to happen and it’s important so we wanted to explain why it’s important and and why uh the rule makes sense so uh yeah good job we’ll be a little more a little more patient as a seller because there are a bunch of things that have to happen absolutely so that is our little tidbit of the day we hope that this helps explain some of the process yeah right absolutely right thank you for listening and give us a call at 713-302-1964 if you need any kind of help or have questions we’re happy to try to answer and help you out we also have uh information site you can

The Prescott Lakes Experience

The largest subdivision in Prescott is Prescott Lakes, which is also one of the most popular.  In this episode, we cover the dozen or so neighborhoods that make up Prescott Lakes, and we discuss what makes it one of our town's go-to destinations for incoming homebuyers.  (Spoiler Alert: There's a lot to like!)

Video Transcript

well good morning good morning peeps this is randall and diane bro she’s thickly i am the pickle lady i’m the pickle i don’t know the pickle sidekick pickles he’s yeah he’s picking a sidekick correct he’s like a little gherkin i’m the pig i could say something else i’m not going to go down that that line it does make me giggle though but anyway here to talk about the biggest subdivision in olive prescott and very popular yes yes and we listen here what do we do it’s called prescott lake lakes it is a beautiful beautiful master-planned community there are nothing there are no ladies not in prescott lakes they’re the latest ones outside yeah people will say well you know i’d like i like the idea of this prescott lakes find me a house that is no um there are some golf traps there are some some water traps um but basically it’s called prescott lakes because it’s between uh borders watson lake and willow lake and both are really reservoirs they’re not really true lakes plastic reservoirs does not sound as nice correct so it’s kind of uh those are uh on the outside on the outskirts of prescott lakes yeah so we came here uh and we checked it out and we fell in love and it’s it’s a really cool concept it has about what 12 or 13 different neighborhoods yeah neighborhoods throughout so it’s not like um some communities where you go in and you most of the houses look the same and they’re cookie cutter and jim jim jim and they’re just pop pop pop pop pop street after street after street even if they’re custom homes they still all have kind of the same look yes uh you know the prescott prescott lakes is not that way well first of all back up a little bit people use the term subdivision in neighborhoods sort of interchangeably which you could do here if it weren’t for prescott lakes because in prison lakes the neighborhood is a subdivision of the subdivision it’s like a smaller little yes so there are about 1200 um homes 1300 homes and prescott lakes and uh the smallest neighborhood probably has something like uh 15 or 20 homes i think this one actually smaller than that and uh the bigger ones have maybe you know 50 or 75 homes and they’re all price ranges in prescott lakes they have everything they have some apartments they have condos they have beautiful town homes um and then they have all price ranges so uh you know in homes you can go anywhere from the high fours all the way to the millions and they’re all in different subdivisions there’s different neighborhoods so for instance and some are gated here in prescott lakes and some are not some are not that’s right um some are single levels smaller homes just all single level two beds some are multi-level and four thousand five thousand square feet some have you know upstairs downstairs some are built into the terrain some have flat lots it’s a really interesting area but what drives people here and they all love it is that uh we have this amazing golf course you’re not required to join golf so if you’re not a golfer you don’t have to pay for that but you get to enjoy the beauty of it it has a private restaurant at private exercise club clubs within the club uh so if you uh you can join the women’s club the bridge club the mahjong club the hiking club you name it there’s something here for everyone so if you are from out of town which a lot of people are they’re attracted to that and they’ve heard about prescott lakes because it’s a good place to move in and meet people right away who are in the same boat as you yeah nobody’s from here most of them are from out of town they don’t have family and it’s nice to quickly meet people it really is and no matter what neighborhood you’re in no matter what house town house condo you’re in everyone belongs to the same club and everyone belongs to the club so you know if you meet a neighbor and you say let’s meet at the club yep they’ll meet you at the club because they’re members of the same club that you are they’re like sure i’ll meet you over there and you can say or you know hey let’s go to that aqua size club exercise class that they’re having today do you want to go with me sure let’s go to the indoor pool because we have an indoor pool we have an outdoor pool yeah so do you play pickleball this is the place for you yeah at least six pickleball courts i think or something like that huge huge from beginners to you know um advanced they’re here yeah and so we love prescott lakes it’s been lovely uh it’s centrally located eight minutes to the square you’re close to grocery stores doctors i mean you cannot ask for a better location right in the heart of prescott proper and um so you can do as much or as little as you want with the social at the club we do a lot of socializing yeah we do we don’t do a lot of we have a lot of fun not a lot of working out how we do socialize but we do socialize and they make great cocktails good filled they give you a good a good pour yeah really good pour great great martinis great martinis yeah lots of good martini dinners yeah absolutely yeah so if you are investigating prescott lakes and you don’t understand i don’t get it that’s why it has prescott lakes is one giant umbrella and under that umbrella are many different assorted neighborhoods uh are each one has their own hoa as well yeah that’s right so people get confused they talk about the subdivisions say of astoria well astoria is one of the neighborhoods within the subdivision of prescott yes and yeah their homes have a very different look you might go down the street to another neighborhood and they have a totally different look you go down into the estates which are the bigger fancier homes and each one of those is a little more custom and a little different in uh in appearance so it’s it’s pretty interesting because it’s interesting that’s interesting you’re never going to be like every house looks the same in this entire community it’s uh it’s very unique and some have more trees than others some are more uh mature than others so it’s um so at this point you can find something for sure at this point by far the biggest subdivision we have in prescott and a very successful formula it’s a very small form you know people get plugged and played into the social scene uh i i think it’s it works pretty well here so a lot of people and we love it when we came here when we came to prescott i wanted land i wanted um i didn’t want to have a neighbor close by i could care less about a golf course or being in a gated community and uh when i found my home that was it i was like all of that went by the wayside and it was worth it to me uh to come here i was like this is it i love this house and i love the feel of this so never write it off uh you know keep an open mind keep an open mind because you may follow your mind open up to the possibility that you may not know offhand exactly what you’re looking for yeah but now that we’re here and we’re doing it it worked really well for us not in the least what we started out looking for not at all and we’ve met the nicest people and good good friends and uh we do hit the social life a lot with those people and we have some martinis yeah it’s good times good times all right so that’s our uh that’s our bid for today uh prescott lakes and subdivisions and neighborhoods and all that yes uh if you want more information about prescott lakes we’ve got membership information golf information all that stuff we also have the same thing for a number of other subdivisions in the area uh and we have information about pretty much anything you can think of when it comes to basket whether it’s real estate or just living here restaurants place to go is pickle411.com that is our information hotline thank you thank you good job good plug and then you know if you’re interested in prescott lakes give us a call we really are the authority on prescott lakes we live here we’ve sold many many many homes here um and i’d love to show you around absolutely we’ll take a tour you’ll fall in love too hopefully anyway we like it all right cheers to you you have to like us she’s you know you still live here that’s right it’s not required it’s not required okay have a great day thanks for listening bye

Radon

Concerned about radon? In this episode, the Pickle Lady gives you the low-down on what is, what causes it, where you will find it, and what you should do about it. Plus, we feature a stunning Prescott neighborhood nestled in the awe-inspiring rock formations known as the dells.

Video Transcript

hello hello hello hey peace this is diane bro with my better half randall bro i don’t know if i’m better i’m just here well that’s true yeah he’s trying yes he’s a work in progress absolutely as we all are here in the canyon yes in prescott this is my all-time favorite neighborhood i adore it if i could i would be here in a heartbeat yeah absolutely uh it’s stunning so we have a very nice friend here phil who agreed to let us come film in his backyard so you can see what it’s like to live here yeah uh it’s just kind of get a little yeah a little view what’s going on here there you go just absolutely beautiful this is backyard but what we love about this is as you know i love the rocks the rocks are my thing uh this is actually actually in this home is built into the dells yes and the dells are a natural rock formation that can only be found in prescott wisconsin and germany that’s right and they are stunning and we don’t know how they form we don’t know how some special i mean other people know we don’t know we don’t know we’re not geologists yeah some yeah no we don’t know i’m not i am into the crystals and all that i do like that i wear my crystals a very very peculiar and bizarre uh process that created the special rock formations referred to as the as the delta but if you are lucky enough to build a home in here and live in here um we have a lot of questions people are like you know you’re surrounded by all this granite and rocks what about the radon radon yeah yeah radon radon is uh it’s a it forms naturally out of the rocks it’s like something to do with radioactivity and uh and all that kind of stuff it’s uh it’s only trace uh trace amounts so like if you don’t hear a whole lot about people hiking in the dells overcome by radon because it’s trace elements so you uh the the problem comes when you have a home that sort of captures the radon and holds it inside for very long periods of time because it’s a clear it it’s kind of a clear gas but here’s the thing it’s not a problem yeah at all uh yeah the very high tech uh eradication systems that they have for radon essentially it’s a fan you know you you you have built in so if you have a custom home and you are surrounded by rocks like this which some people have there’s a way to mitigate that problem yeah and you have a whole uh essentially you just need to circulate it so they’re gonna release it here yeah so they’ll put a pan on it which you need to be aware if you just put granite on your kitchen countertops guess what yeah there’s a radon coming radon comes off of that countertop it’s a natural thing that’s a natural in the environment what you want to have is not have it build up in your home yes but once you address that you mitigate it yes it’s a non-issue yeah so if you have a home that’s built into into the dells um it’s a good idea to have you know monitoring equipment to make sure that the concentrations aren’t building up correct and like i said your mitigation system is essentially a small fan that just kind of circulates the air around and keeps them keeps them low so it’s perfectly perfectly safe to build a home where you have that situation but most most places here in prescott do not um and that’s what i wanted to talk about too this is an unusual and exceptional case you know to be surrounded by these rocks it’s just it’s just stunning it’s a great place to be but not all neighborhoods are built in the dells here in brisket so there are a lot of other neighborhoods that the dells will be five miles away two miles away three miles away and people will say i need to have radon testing yeah you can you can you can you certainly can but but it’s not necessary if you live in a neighborhood like prescott lakes yeah you’re not going to have a radon issue yeah yeah you’re perfectly fine even though zillow will tell you that oh there’s been radon within a mile of this home within five miles of this home you know um not a big deal it’s not although we do have testing if you are still going to be testing yeah we could do we can arrange that testing runs about 125 and they set up the equipment and then you get your reading that says you’re perfectly fine yeah what they’ll do is they’ll put the they’ll put the monitoring equipment in place and generally they’ll seal the home basically don’t let anybody in and out for a few days and they’ll collect it that way so that’s pretty much what the testing is so we wanted to let you know if you’re in the heart of the of the rocks yeah that’s something you might want to consider you need to mitigate that easily done yeah then you can enjoy the beauty there’s a reason why the rocks give off energy people yeah they do have energy and they’re great that’s right it’s a good good
