There’s a reason some of America’s richest citizens have fled states such as California and New York for the desert heat of Arizona – you can get an awful lot of house for a (relatively) little amount of money.

Want to buy the most expensive house on the market in LA? You’re looking at $225 million. The most expensive resale in Arizona, meanwhile, can be yours for $28 million. According to recent data published by Point2 this seven-bedroom, eight-bathroom Arizona mansion called “The Aerie” spans over 13,600 square feet across a 1.8-acre lot located east of McDowell Mountain Regional Park.

But who wants to live in someone else’s grubby old mansion? Using new home data from BuzzBuzzHome, here are 12 new construction mansions in Arizona you can buy today that would put you in a manor of your own.

This story is part of a series of articles on new build Arizona real estate.
