As I reflect on the Sabino Mountain sales of this year, it comes to mind that the biggest bargain was the sale of 4224 N Boulder Canyon Place at the unbelievably low price of 441K! This Outpost built semi-custom home has over 3,300 square feet and is sited on over 1/2 acre and has sparkling city views. The previous sale in this home was in 2004 when it sold for 657K. This is one of the three distressed sales of this year, and sold as a “short sale”. This buyer got a tremendous deal!

To view the eight homes that have sold this year click on 2011 Sabino Mountain Sales.

It should be noted the home on 4493 Little Rock that sold for 250K and the one on 4308 N Ocotillo Canyon that sold for 231K were foreclosures, and the one on 4224 N Boulder Canyon that sold for 441K was a short sale. Therefore, 3 out of the 8 sales were distress sales.

My projection of 2012 is that it will not get better. So if you plan on selling your house, list it at an aggressive price with a very experienced agent, or it is unlikely to sell! Unfortunately, the truth is it will take at least a few years for the Catalina Foothills market to pick up.

After being on the market for well over a year, and at a starting List Price of around 1.5 million, 4085 N Black Rock Drive finally sold for 675K. Originally it had been built as a two bedroom home that proved challenging to sell in this market, so it was converted back into a 3 Bedroom and Study shortly after it was listed for sale.

4081 N Quail Canyon Drive (listed by Long Realty) went back on the market today at a List Price of 999K (seems to remind me of something else)! This 3,700 square foot contemporay has been on and off the market since Spring of 2008 when the List Price started at $1,349,000. This one first sold for 875K in the summer of 2005.

The only homes in this price - range that usually sell are priced quite aggressively.
