According to the Greater El Paso Association of Realtors (GEPAR), the number of homes sold in Sun City jumped by 25% in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The median home sale price also rose by 10% to $275,000. Several factors are contributing to the surge in home sales. Interest rates remain at historically low levels, making it more affordable for buyers to purchase a home. Additionally, the El Paso economy is strong, with job growth and increased investment in the region. Sun City itself is a highly desirable neighborhood for several reasons. The community offers a wide range of amenities, including a golf course, tennis courts, swimming pools, and a clubhouse. The neighborhood is also well-maintained and has a strong sense of community. Many homebuyers in Sun City are retirees or empty nesters seeking an active and vibrant lifestyle. The neighborhood’s proximity to medical facilities, shopping, and dining options is also a major draw. “We’ve seen a lot of interest in Sun City from people looking for a place to enjoy their retirement,” said local realtor Jessica Garcia. “The amenities and social activities here are really attractive to that demographic.” The surge in home sales has also had a positive impact on the local economy. The increased demand for housing has led to new construction and the creation of jobs in the real estate and construction industries. “The increase in home sales in Sun City is a positive sign for the El Paso housing market overall,” said GEPAR President David Acosta. “It shows that there is still strong demand for homes in our region, and that Sun City remains a popular destination for homebuyers.”
