Kierland real estate: ZIP code 85254 and the homes built from 1995 to 1998

Kierland is in ZIP code 85254, near the Loop 101, and it is surrounded by two shopping centers, Kierland Commons and Scottsdale Quarter. I'm Jen Keene, a REALTOR® with eXp Realty Luxury in Scottsdale, AZ, and I'm the agent people call at every stage of their life.

If you are looking at homes here, the first thing to know is that the single-family homes were built by UDC between 1995 and 1998, so they are close to each other in age. There are also condos in Kierland and in Scottsdale Quarter.

The single-family homes in Kierland were built by UDC between 1995 and 1998. Because they went up within a few years of each other, the roof, the air conditioner and the water heater on one house are likely close in age to the same parts on the house next door, so if you are buying, ask the seller when each of them was last replaced, and if you are selling, have those dates ready before you list.

Kierland has condos and townhomes as well as houses, and the communities include Optima Kierland, The Landmark at Kierland, Plaza Residences, Plaza Lofts at Kierland Commons, Kierland Greens and Kierland Heritage. There are condos in Scottsdale Quarter too, so if you are looking at a condo in this part of town, it helps to know which community you are actually asking about before you compare one to another.

Kierland Commons is one of the two shopping centers around the neighborhood, along with Scottsdale Quarter, and it sits on about 38 acres. It is a shopping center and not a place to live, but the name comes up so often in searches like Kierland Commons homes for sale that it is easy to end up looking at the wrong thing.

Search by ZIP code 85254 in the MLS rather than typing Kierland into a general search engine, since the name also pulls up the shopping center along with the houses. Set up a saved search for that ZIP code and your price range so you hear about a new listing as soon as it comes up.

If you are starting the buying process, I walk every buyer through what happens before you see a single house. If you are selling, here's what your home might be worth. Either way, call me at (480) 203-6605 or get in touch, and I'll pull the homes for sale and the closed sales in 85254 for you.
