Here are May’s results for the Phoenix area luxury condo market. I define luxury condos as those with list prices in excess of $1 million.
At the end of May, there were 69 luxury condos for sale throughout the valley. Forty-three condos were located in Scottsdale, twenty-four were in Phoenix, and two were located in Tempe. Only one luxury condo sold in May. It was a penthouse unit at Esplanade Place in the Biltmore area of Phoenix. The three bedroom, three bathroom, 3,350 square foot unit sold for $1,725,000. There was also one pending sale at the Scottsdale Waterfront for a three bedroom, three and-one-half bathroom, 2,975 square foot unit.
