Marana Real Estate Market: Spring Summer 2016
The town of Marana is growing fast, and you can’t have growth without new homes being built and people buying and selling existing properties.

However, when looking at the Dove Mountain neighborhood within Marana, the stats look slightly different due to the luxury homes available here.
