How much do McCormick Ranch homes cost?

Pricing in McCormick Ranch ranges from roughly $500,000 for entry-level condos and townhomes to $3 million+ for renovated and waterfront single-family homes. The pricing variation is wider here than in most Scottsdale sub-markets because of the product-type mix.
