3 Huge Reasons to Buy a Home in Chandler AZ
Although some people complain about the suburban sprawl that is the Phoenix metro area, I find that such a large and diverse city allows for hidden neighborhoods and pockets, like Chandler AZ. I always advocate to young families and working couples to buy a home in Chandler AZ because of its location, luxurious features, and tight-knit community. Chandler AZ is located in the East Valley, south of Scottsdale.
