Could it be a $8,000, 000 Home, or a $8,000, 000 sucker deal In Phoenix, AZInformationon the property located at 5050 E. Red Rock Dr... Better Known as the Camelback Castle in Phoenix, AZThe property is listed at $7,995, 000.00... According to the Maricopa County Tax Records, this property was purchased on 05/24/1989 for a much lower amount of $985,000.00. Could a home go up 800% in this amount of time? I think NOT. Finding the tax information was a bit time consuming, for an error was made in the parcel ID number Reported on the listing realtor's Documentation. The information in the MLS is to represent correct factual data on properties, if you were to purchase this property with the wrong assessors number you would not be buying the property known as "The Castle"- a Phoenix Landmark. Was this a" typo"? It certainly will dissuade realtors from looking up the tax records which also show, according to the tax assessors square footage (6,172 sq. Ft), is significantly less than the appraiser square footage (7807 sq. Ft.) which is shown in the MLS listing. Could be a multi million Dollar mistake, or a deal for a SUCKER. If you care to check with a title company details on the property the correct assessor number is 172-48-024-A, not 172-48-624. When a listing is entered with an error, especially one with an 800% appreciation in value from 5/24/1989 to approximately 1/18 it is most important to obtain all of the correct information prior to making an offer. Maybe the owner is hurting for money. The following questions must be answered when there is an error with the assessor number. Why was it different from the tax records? Is someone hidding inside info? Where is the property that this different number belongs to? Is there such a property and is this 5050 E. Red rock Dr. Really for sale? What is the actual Square Footage of the home? The room dimensions are not given so if you want to know the size of the rooms you will have to measure them. The MLS listing reads "includes guest / caretakers qrtrs, secretpassageways", etc. Could it be "secret passageways" is to be counted as actual living square footage? What did the listing agent mean? Prior to considering an offer please have a real estate attorneyresearch the information. Your real estate attorney may also suggest an appraiser.

The listing agent SHOULD be eager to provide CORRECT information. THE BIG QUESTION ISWould the listing realtor be posting or releasing the wrong Parcel ID number of # 172 48 624 instead of Parcel # of 172-48-024-A to hide something from a buyer of a $8,000, 000 home that was bought in the past for less then $1,000, 000 on 5/24/89To all readers Get a attorney before you buy a home of any price.
