Will White and John Carrol with Land Advisors of Tucson handled the transaction.
"The region's master-planned communities are seeing a huge increase in pace and pricing power this year,” said White. “This is fueling the builder need to replace communities at a faster pace than projected. All great signs for the Tucson market."

"The lot supply shortage in Tucson is being amplified by a much stronger market. These projects are delivering lots on time and efficiently in order for builders to keep up with demand, maintain pipeline and continue to meet growth projections,” according to White. “These larger projects are the focus for Tucson's builders and will be for several years.”
