Eastern Arizona is booming as the copper industries demand for workers is driving housing sky high. There are parts of Canada that are booming also with the mining of sand oil. So as some areas of the country slow down due to economic influences, others take off.

Realtors in the Gila Valley worked overtime this year as they catered to a sellers market, and most say they expect 2006 to be even busier.

“Nothing has been quite like 2005,” Myrna Curtis, a sales associate from Casa Del Sol Realty, said. “The market was so hot this year, it was the best I’ve ever seen.” Curtis has been selling real estate for 27 years.

t least two factors contributed to what local real estate agents call a banner year for sales. The first is the price of copper, Curtis said. Copper jumped in value during 2005, evening out at more than $2 per pound.

The second factor is growth, Curtis said. Promises of a copper mine opening in the Safford area and of Eastern Arizona College expanding to allow four-year degree options spurred the market this year and guaranteed a tight market next year.
