Housing
Overview
Verrado is a large, award-winning master-planned community located within the city of Buckeye, Arizona, known for its small-town American charm, tree-lined streets, and abundant amenities. Situated at the base of the White Tank Mountains, it blends a tranquil, scenic setting with modern conveniences and a strong focus on community engagement.
Verrado exudes small-town charm at every turn, full of neighbors who become friends, and friends who become family.

What’s New & What’s Coming to Verrado in the Next 12 Months
- Verrado Marketplace – A Game-Changer for Lifestyle & Value
The long-awaited Verrado Marketplace is fully underway at I-10 and Verrado Way. This isn’t a small project — it’s a 500,000+ sq. ft. retail, dining, and entertainment hub designed to transform the entire West Valley.
Anchors like Target, Safeway, and a major entertainment venue are already lined up. While the official opening is set for Spring 2026, tenants are being secured now and activity is ramping up quickly.
Why this matters if you’re buying or selling:
- Lifestyle appeal is about to surge — walkability, dining, entertainment, convenience.
- Property values in amenity-rich communities typically strengthen as these projects come online.
- For sellers, this is a huge talking point: buyers aren’t just purchasing a home… they’re buying into a community that’s leveling up in a big way.
- New Home Options Across Verrado – More Choices Than Ever
New communities are coming online throughout Verrado, and if you’re looking for something modern, upgraded, or with mountain views, this next year is loaded with opportunity.
- Overlook at Verrado Regent Hills is releasing incredible mountain-view lots.
- Black Rock at Verrado is bringing in more contemporary, high-design options.
- Victory continues to expand its 55+ offerings with single-story, low-maintenance plans.
As both a realtor and former general contractor, I can walk you through the things most people miss — build quality, upgrade strategy, lot selection, and long-term value.
This is especially important as builders diversify their product lines. The right lot and the right floorplan matter more than ever.
- Transportation & Infrastructure Upgrades – Better Access, Better Daily Living
Big improvements are underway to support Verrado’s growth:
- The new I-10/Jackrabbit Trail interchange is moving forward, designed to improve flow and ease traffic pressure.
- The Miller Road widening project just wrapped up, improving one of Verrado’s most heavily used routes.
- The city continues to prioritize road improvements as Buckeye grows.
Why this matters:
Better access makes life more convenient, reduces commute frustration, and increases the overall appeal of living in Verrado. For sellers, this is another value-driven point to highlight with buyers looking for lifestyle and connectivity.
