Luxury: Scottsdale/Sedona

Luke Carl is joined by Short Term Shop agent Leslie to tour high-end vacation rental opportunities in Arizona. They break down a rare new build in Sedona, discuss the challenges of building pools on rocky Sedona soil (expect $75k–$100k minimum), and highlight properties that already have pools and spas—major revenue drivers in this market. Leslie explains why rooftop decks are uncommon but valuable, why permits are easy and inexpensive, and how swim spas can be a smart alternative when a full pool isn't feasible. From dated interiors with good bones to a stunner with Saltillo tile and breathtaking views, this episode is a practical walkthrough of what actually works for luxury STRs in two of Arizona's hottest markets.
