One of the biggest draws for Prescott is the weather. Here you don’t have to be miserable half the year to enjoy a low cost of living.
Quick Overview: Prescott has four true seasons (really 5 if you add the rainy season), and all of them are absolutely delightful… and none are very extreme.
Yavapai Regional Medical Center has 136 beds and is fully accredited. If you are in a car accident and life-flighted out, the helicopters take you here. It is the best hospital in the local region, and it is five minutes from downtown Prescott. Two campuses are available – one in Prescott and one in Prescott Valley.
One of the lesser known delights of Prescott is rainbows. Crazy amazing rainbows! Prescott area is Rainbow Central during Spring and late Summer. We’re not sure what brings them here… whether it’s the natural conditions or just the positive attitude of the place… but they are gorgeous!
Property appreciation is a powerful force in Prescott that people sometimes forget about… until it starts working against them. Join us in this episode for a better appreciation of appreciation, as we explore some of the dynamics of home values you may have missed.
she wants them she wants to drink something out of the pickle cup hello hello hello peeps hello beeps we are here enjoying this great day on our deck up here with our pups with our young pup yes this is violet it’s frankie frankie’s making a shot it’s frankie might not make it but anyway we’re here enjoying the lovely day in the after in the afternoon here on our porch upstairs deck and we were thinking to ourselves wow you know we got this house at a great price right when things were changing and uh the appreciation here has been phenomenal yeah it’s been amazing uh i’m not even sure i could get it now yeah yeah that’s how much it’s gone up since we moved here yeah we’re in prescott prescott lakes presa lakes subdivision is by far the largest in the area and it gets appreciation pretty consistent consistencies consistently since i like 2012 something like that uh between uh eight and ten percent uh appreciation a year a year each year which is one year which is phenomenal yeah so if you’re looking to buy a home and and say will this be a good investment now’s the time because the price is just they’re going up it is really appreciating people yeah it is you know people will come in and they’ll take a look at a house that’s selling for let’s say that you know 700 000 dollars and they’ll say well wait a minute you know the the the seller paid 500 yes only four years ago welcome to 10 appreciation it’s real folks you know i just do the arithmetic if you take 10 or 500 that’s 50 000 a year times four yeah 700 yeah my math teacher would kill me because that’s really not the way you calculate interest if you’re not a geek if you you know you have social skills you can calculate it that way but uh you know just very roughly uh you look at the numbers that way and they’ll give you give you an idea and people are surprised they’re glad to get the appreciation when they own the home uh but they forget you know appreciation works for the other side too so don’t wait too long because you might outprice yourself yeah absolutely on certain homes that you may fall in love with so if you’re thinking i’ll wait a year or two and see what’s going to happen you might you might lose out you might lose out you might lose that particular yeah our buyers from california need to be really careful too because a big part of the reason that uh california is in in large part driving the prescott market and we call it the california arbitrage so you sell your home in california and you come to prescott you buy a home that’s as good or better and you bank like 50 of the cost of the home well if you’re in areas of california and there are still many where the homes are appreciation appreciating very rapidly well that’s fine your home’s appreciating and so are the homes here but some of the areas of california the appreciation is begin to slow down yep if that’s the case you’re going to lose your arbitration you know you’re going to use that extra bank that extra bank that you wanted to put into savings or for your retirement yeah so don’t wait too long don’t wait too long it’s a good time a good time to move we still have some great deals great deals yeah great deals and people for the most part coming in from places like california are amazed at what their money can buy oh yeah still a good investment still a good investment still gonna see some appreciation yeah so anyway we just want to kind of talk about that yeah we’re kind of excited about where we live now we really have never lived any place right great violet yeah yes violet says yes violence yeah where we had some nice appreciation yeah we appreciate appreciation we appreciate you appreciative thing yeah it hasn’t happened to us too often yeah that’s right in other areas where we live texas louisiana so for this we totally embrace it we are psyched yeah we are psyched and so was fighting yeah a beautiful home like this could also be a good investment that’s wonderful it’s a it’s a very nice win-win yeah absolutely so anyway if you’re thinking about it don’t think too long yeah now is the time to strike good time to act very low uh interest rates yes you can lock those in this is a really really good time to make your play don’t be afraid you’ll be okay that’s right all right so if you need any more information violet yeah she’s a little uncomfortable yeah go to

Arizona is known for Summer fires, and some of our viewers have expressed concern about Prescott. Short Answer: Although a lot of the fire fighting efforts come out of Prescott, we don’t get a lot of fires here – largely because Prescott manages fires… HARD! Hear all about it in this episode.
Prescott is a city of patriotism, and its residents honor those that serve. In this episode, we celebrate independence, discuss Prescott’s culture of patriotism, chat with some local law enforcement folks… and pet some dogs.
When people have spent most of their lives watching out for underhanded thieves and thugs, it’s hard to get them to relax. But when you are in Prescott, you are safe. You can let your guard down and rest easy… but it might take you a while.
People have different notions of what Prescott is like largely because it is a lot of things. Depending on where you are in the city, the ground around you can be very different.
In this episode, we take the Pickle Van on a magical mystery tour of the many different types of terrain Prescott has to offer.
hello hello hello pickle peeps hey peeps this is diane bro with my better half sometimes better half randall bro correct rumbling we’re in the van again we’re trying uh a dash cam still got some grumbling going on on the road so we thought that would be kind of cool in the pickle van driving around keep it keep it uh keep it jumping keep it jumping spicy that’s kind of spicy yeah because yeah we’ve been in uh we’ve been in lockdown for a while yeah exciting so today we’re going to talk about the many terrains of prescott yes so we have people that come in and they have preconceived notions of what prescott is and very different preconceived notions and the answer is we’re all those things we are we have many different types of terrain uh you can drive within five minutes and be in something that looks entirely different than where we just were so if you are a tree person or a forest person we got an area we got it yeah that’s kind of what i thought of about prescott i guess people described it as a mountain town well a mountaintop town to me is a place that’s well mountainous and has like lots of pine trees like pine tree forests yes and we absolutely have that we do yeah and so what’s nice is those particular areas are a little bit higher elevation uh but they are surrounded by pine trees some areas are also bordered by the state national forest it’s lovely it’s beautiful it’s going to be a little you’ll get a little more cooler weather up there you get a little more snow than the winter season you know that’s negligible but what’s beautiful about the tree the trees and the forested sections i mean you really feel like you’re in a tree house yeah some of these homes are built off the side of a mountain and all you hear is the swaying and the wind in the pine trees yeah it’s gorgeous it’s gorgeous it’s it’s just beautiful very peaceful very nice so if that is where your heart is we have that we have that section to take that and then that most of the areas in town that have lots and lots of pine trees are the southwest section of town yes if you go a little further north uh we’ll show you scenes from uh the haciampa area which is uh is kind of like our our next terrain the trees tend to thin out a little bit but still lots of terrain lots of drought that has and boulders yeah trees and boulders trees and boulders which is a really cool combo kind of my favorite combo really yeah um you’ll have the boulders plus you’ll still have the beauty and the greenness of the trees yes um and a little bit mountainous yes so that’s cool yeah and some people do not want any terrain they don’t want any hills they don’t want they want it flat yeah you know and so a good area for that but they still want trees is williamson valley williamson valley so lots of uh lots of flatter land still get a fair amount of rock um you know you can have some rock formations most of the homes can be done on a single level because there’s more flat land right um you’re not looking through trees so if you’re an area with lots of trees well your view is going to be trees sometimes you can’t see past the trees to see what’s beyond uh they have granite mountain in the distance yeah and out in the williamson valley area flatlands but lots of juniper uh scrub brush it’s kind of looks like an old western town it’s kind of a western like you’re just waiting for those tumbleweeds to come come through so totally different section totally different feel and one section that’s really popular it’s kind of in between a little bit more terrain than williamson valley but not a lot of trees is sort of midtown around the uh the area prescott lakes uh there is uh there are some homes that are built like on the edge of a cliff you know the the stemwall construction uh which is nice but there is some flat land some singles and again you have views of the dells willow lake watson lake um so that’s a little more of a planned subdivision so it’s beautifully landscaped so you see lots of green um but you will see some great distant views of granite mountain thumb butte uh and the dells and the dells which is our last area we wanted to talk about which is not unique to prescott but pretty close there are only a few areas in the world who have these kinds of uh rock formations and we are one of them and they are just stunning i love it it’s uh very similar kind of similar to the rocks in sedona but these are we call the fred flintstone for you people of our generation you’ll know what we’re talking about fred flintstone rocks and it’s right here in the heart of prescott lots of kayaking around there lots of hiking in there um it’s beautiful very very peaceful so some people like to live around those dells and see those rocks and the rocks and it is super cool um so prescott has it all so whatever your preconceived notions some preconceived notions we don’t have some people think that prescott is a desert town no we are not we are not a desert town we have four seasons here folks four beautiful seasons yep none are extreme okay we are not desert this is not phoenix this is not uh yeah you know scottsdale yeah this is very moderate you know temperatures yeah we’re not like flagstaff we’re not high enough to really get snowbound we don’t have elk here no uh we have a fickle lady you know she’s pretty wild yeah yeah i can be after a couple martinis absolutely it’s pets absolutely but anyways so when you come to prescott be open we will take you to all sections especially for your first visit and then you can decide oh i love the rocks oh i know i’ve got to be in trees end of sentence yeah then we can really hone in on the search and just go to those sections and be open to the possibility that you might change your mind we did i thought i wanted to live in the pine trees absolutely and we ended up buying uh in the prescott lakes area that’s right uh which is more kind of a happy happy medium that i

When you see the temperature in Prescott is going to be 17 degrees, you may think “the weather outside is frightful.” In this episode the Pickle Lady explains why it may be a lot more delightful than you might realize, and why even folks from the Deep South often find Winter to be the best of Prescott’s four glorious seasons.
hello what’s happening out there today here with pickle lady cheers and our pickled brigade mugs that contain non-caffeinated coffee beverages for all of our 18 year old uh our home buyers home buyers that we’re setting ourselves we’re not trying to influence and we’re trying to influence not at all yeah but what we are here to talk about is a lot of people who move here we talk about how we have four beautiful seasons and none are too extreme then we have some clients and they move in and they’re like you said it wouldn’t be cold and tonight it’s going to be 17 17 degrees well here’s the thing does it get chilly willy at night time yeah it does it does but the difference is when it’s 17 degrees it’s usually three o’clock in the morning and you’re when you’re already snuggled under your coverage 17 degrees in your bed yeah yeah and it’s not 17 degrees in the daytime no for instance last night we had a pretty cold night now we’re standing outside it’s in the 50s yeah i want to say last night it was down to you know 27 yeah it’s getting up to close to 60. yeah um look at this weather it’s like spring here yeah so don’t let these low temperatures that you see like oh my gosh it’s 15 degrees hardly ever happens yeah when you see 17 degrees in a place like idaho for example it’s gonna be like 17 degrees all day long oh yeah you know it it doesn’t work that way here no yeah it gets very chilly sometimes at nighttime yeah so don’t worry about oh i looked on the weather channel and it says it’s 17 degrees there but they’re at yeah it’s a cold place it’s a cold place it’s not it’s not it’s not it’s not it’ll be fine you have your fireplace on and you’re sleeping yeah because it’s three o’clock in the morning no one’s like a few days in the winter where it’s in the 40s yeah yeah it it it’ll it’ll be cold at night and you know it might be drizzly so it’s really cold or whatever and you do something called stay home uh but like then you know the next day the day after would be up in the 60s that’s the thing the thing about prescott winters is that they’re not relentless they relent uh you know yeah that’s a good way yeah you you get inner space with days where you can run around in your shorts without a shirt i know you know the pickle lady likes to do that and so she’ll do that you know trying to keep the family safe we got to get to keep the family safe don’t forget so don’t let that throw you because yeah it can get pretty cold at nighttime when you’re sleeping but in the daytime look at your day yeah it’s gorgeous it’s in the 60s yesterday i was out taking some buyers i was like wow i’m getting a little hot actually i’m like i’m starting to sweat yeah so don’t let a lot of variety and you know i i i’m from the south so i’m not a cold weather guy but you know i enjoy having a few days where we’ll have a little snow or you know it’s a good day to have a a cup of coffee with the pickle lady right you know sit down on the back porch under a blanket and snuggle and you know all that kind of stuff and then when you get tired of being cold then you get 60 degrees you get 60 degrees yeah and spring has sprung again but the key to remember is do we have snow occasionally is it gone by the next day pretty much usually gone by the afternoon eighty-five percent of the time it’s like no big deal folks i mean you’ll see we had snow a few days ago you might see some snow in the background a little bit of white you know usually by the afternoon the the asphalt the the the roads get warm enough that all the snow’s off the roads and you’ll be on the grass and the bacon lunch you’ll see a little snow no now he’s getting scientific with your ass you know a little snow spice a little snow it’s kind of like having a little gray on the side of here well i don’t have that they tell me i’m distinguished now because mine is minus faith i don’t know any more than i used to i look like that so yeah what we’re saying is folks don’t let those teen temperatures freak you out it is a non-event event 100 non-event where can they find you you can find me at prescottpicklelady.com or we sell prescott.com for our listeners out there people looking to sell homes in the prescott area and there’s always the prescott lady hotline you know what 713-302-1964 introduced ourselves i am diane bro by the way this is randall bro it did that at the beginning yeah maybe i don’t think so it’s hard to edit these things people it’s hard to edit these things it is with the pickle lady she’s not always working on this i’m not i’ve got a lot going on a lot a lot up there houses i’m thinking about people coming in showing that house that’s what i’m thinking as we’re recording she does it never shuts off folks it never shuts off it’s always going to work that’s not very nice there it is that’s not nice all right cheers all right cheers have a great day and we’ll see you next time bye
