Over the past year we sold 623 condo homes in the top high rise buildings.  Only 16 of those were short sales.  Foreclosures dropped to only 17 of the condos sold.  The current inventory would be gone in less than ten months if no new condos were listed.  Cash was used in 73% of the high rise condos that sold.  

Breakdown of 2015 Sales by Building

Each month, we publish which units sold at what price in each building.  As we start the New Year, we thought it might be useful to look at total sales volume for each building.  Below you will find a summary for the year of units sold in each building.  You'll find the price range and price per square foot of the condos that sold.  How many condos are currently listed for sale in each building.  

The highest sales volume was seen at Palms Place.   Investors snapped up 128 units, mostly from the developer.  MGM Signature placed second with 74 units sold.  Veer Towers had third highest sales volume with 70 condos sold.  The 70 units sold at Veer Towers was impressive since the building isn't condotel.

Highest price per square foot was The Mandarin Oriental with a range of $4258 to $1234/sf.  The most expensive condo sold was ONE Queensridge Place with the top floor penthouse that closed for $7.7M.

What an amazing amount of information. It sounds like Las Vegas high end condos are a buyers market based upon inventory and the lingering foreclosure/short sales. At the same time, with better than fifty sales a month, it seems like a good marketplace. What is the sweet spot for high end high rise condos?
