Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) and All Souls Procession
Tucson has a rich and vibrant cultural history that isn’t common to many other cities of it’s size. You might have noticed expressions of that heritage all throughout town! At the heart of this tradition is Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) and the All Souls Procession.
Each year, during the first weekend of November, Downtown Tucson explodes with a parade of color, art, and music in honor of family and friends no longer with us. From it’s humble roots in the Mexican countryside, Dia de los Muertos calls on all people to celebrate their individual and shared histories.
Even though the entire purpose of Dia de los Muertos is to commemorate the lives of those who have passed on, it is really a huge thank-you party. In honoring their life as opposed to focusing on their death, we allow our loved ones to breathe again. It’s also a great excuse to don some amazing costumes and shut down a major Downtown artery for a huge party!
You Owe It To Yourself to Attend
Tuscon’s celebration of Dia de los Muertos, especially the All Souls Procession, is one of the largest celebrations of it’s type in the US. It’s also one of the funnest Things To Do in Tucson! You are encouraged to dress in your most colorful costumes and paint your face in a style known as “Sugar Skull”.
With over 20 years of celebrations under their belt, the planning committee for Dia de los Muertos knows how to throw a party! Dia de los Muertos and the All Souls Procession are tributes to Tucson’s superb sense of community and it’s appreciation for culture history.

Buying a loft in Tucson Arizona can be difficult because there are so few lofts for sale. Today, I thought I would give you a few tips if you really want to buy a loft.
Tip #1: Get On My List!
We keep a running list of all buyers who are actively looking for lofts for sale. When we know of one coming up, we call those buyers whom have been patiently waiting before the loft ever goes to the public. So you get to see the loft first!
Tip #2: Get Pre-Qualified with the Right Lender!
Everyone knows you have to get pre-qualified for your home loan, but you may not know the importance of using the right lender. Several years ago, buyers had a hard time purchasing lofts due to lending rules and other issues related to the occupancy rates, etc. So, we worked with a local lending company who has local underwriters and local appraisers. This process took us a few years, but we did it and now we have been able to get buyers the lofts they want with low down payment loans.
Okay, so now you’re asking “How do I get on the list?”
