– Phoenix and Scottsdale AZ Luxury Condo Sales – January 2013 –
The Phoenix and Scottsdale luxury condo market had a positive January 2013. During the month, four luxury condos sold and two units were pending sale at the end of the month. Inventory also dropped, partially as a result of sales and listings that expired.
I am defining the Phoenix and Scottsdale luxury condo market as condos for sale with asking prices in excess of $1 million.
Below is a chart depicting luxury condo sales activity in January for all luxury condos as well as in Scottsdale and Phoenix.

In addition to the penthouse and an expansive deck, this unit came with a separate guest suite complete with laundry and a full kitchen.
The luxury condo market in Scottsdale and Phoenix got off to a strong start. All of the activity in January took place in Scottsdale, so hopefully Phoenix will see some action in February. There is now very low inventory for these condos, so we may see constrained sales in February.
