According to the report, “For many affluent individuals, the decision to invest in luxury real estate is less about outperforming the market and more about preserving wealth, enhancing lifestyle, and creating legacy value… Affluent buyers are also increasingly drawn to real estate for its resilience in uncertain times. In volatile financial conditions, real estate acts as a hard asset, a hedge against inflation, a counterbalance to paper wealth, and a buffer from market noise. For families, it offers continuity and a sense of control. For international investors, it may provide currency diversification, citizenship pathways, or long-term tax advantages. The logic is clear: a luxury home may not be the fastest-growing asset in a portfolio, but it’s among the most reliable, personal, and emotionally meaningful. It’s an investment in lifestyle, identity, and permanence - and in a world where those things often feel fragile, that’s worth a premium.”

Cactus League Spring Training 2025. PLAY BALL!
Thursday Feb 20, 2025 opened the season, which will continue through March. Here is this year's schedule:
From AZCentral:
|
Baseball fans in Arizona are celebrating.
|
|
Spring is almost here, but spring training is now.
|
|
The Arizona Republic's team of writers will cover the Diamondbacks, home and road, and provide the best coverage fans can find.
|
|
The 10 spring training ballparks in the greater Phoenix area provide a gathering spot for fans eager to reunite with their favorite teams and stars.
|
|
The Cubs (Sloan Park), Milwaukee Brewers (American Family Fields in Phoenix), Sacramento (formerly Oakland) Athletics (Hohokam Stadium), Los Angeles (Tempe Diablo Stadium) and Giants (Scottsdale Stadium) have a ballpark to call their own.
|
|
The big story of the Major League Baseball offseason was the mass — Diamondbacks fans would call it obscene — hoarding of top free agents by the defending World Series champion Dodgers, but the hometown team surprised its fan base with increased spending, too.
|
|
The Diamondbacks lured former Cy Young winner Corbin Burnes — who already owned a home in the Valley — aboard with a six-year, $210 million contract. Burnes will team with Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly to give Arizona a truly formidable trio at the top of the pitching rotation.
|
|
Year-round residents anticipating success for this year's Diamondbacks are likely to be rewarded, as the team appears to boast all the elements needed to be a playoff contender.
|
|
As is the case for Cactus League teams, hope springs eternal.
