A Chicken Walks into the Phoenix Housing Market...

And is instantly turned into a hot wing. We've been trying to tell you for weeks now how insanely hot the Phoenix housing market is. Some of you have listened, but others are still skeptical. Do you think I would put myself through this much torture to prove to you how hot it was if I wasn't telling the truth?! According to these 4 sub-markets in the East Valley, I ate a corresponding hot-wing to show you the level of buyer activity:

1. $1M - $2M: ASIAN ZING

2. $750k - $1M: HOT

3. $300k - $500k: MANGO HABANERO

4. Under $300K: BLAZIN'

Wanna see how I did? PS... I wasn't allowed to drink any water. Watch the video and tell me if you've ever had the BLAZIN' hot sauce from Buffalo Wild Wings!
