The other day I reported that here we are In the dead of summer, when high-end sales are at their slowest and 6161 E Finisterra Drive, listed at $1,299,000, and on the market for a long-long time, went to contract back to back with 6261 E Placita Aspecto, listed at $1,259,000.
And for August, that alone would have been quite an achievement.
But that was just the warm-up, since then 5 more upper-end homes have found a buyer.
4021 E Camino Montecillo, in La Paloma, listed at $815,000 and on the market for 165 days,

2131 E Camino El Ganado, in Cat 5, listed at $824,000, after 162 days,
(listed by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage)
4458 N Sabino Mountain Drive, on Sabino Mountain, listed at $899,000 for 178 days
(listed by Long Realty)
7700 N Calle Sin Miedo, in Sin Vacas, listed at $1,195,000, for 156 days
(listed by Long Realty)
And, finally, the big Kahuna,7248 N Cloud Canyon Place, in the Canyons, and currently listed at $2,500,000, for 258 days, (listed by Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty)
all went to contract this week, the golden week of August 11, 2014.
Who would have predicted that, not me. But the oddest thing about it is that except for Placita Aspecto, these homes have been on the market for many months or years, so why now, in August.
