LOVE has just learned of a new website (4OroValley.com) where you can obtain more information about Oro Valley issues. We're not sure if this new site is permanent or if it is just being maintained during the 2018 Town Council election.In any event, below is a sample of what can be found on this new website:
Property values increase claim
In Hiremath's full page ad in the Explorer, he seemed proud to say that "Home values have risen twenty-three percent since I took office" (which was in 2010). He must have been hoping that information would garner him some votes. He has repeated that claim several other times. Guess he didn't figure anyone would remember that 2010 was near the bottom of the market and do any follow-up research. Let's get to the truth.
Home values in Oro Valley may have gone up 23% since Hiremath took office in 2010, but according to Tucson.com, home values throughout Arizona have gone up 35% since 2010. That's 50% higher statewide than Oro Valley. And according to Trulia.com, the median sales price in Phoenix has more than doubled since 2010. Perhaps Hiremath's 23% number isn't quite the source of pride he'd like us to believe.
