Most of this market's business happens in its first band: 387 of the 579 homes that closed sold between $3M and $5M.

The same twelve months saw 122 listings expire and 338 cancelled. Scottsdale above $3M still cleared more than half of everything offered to it.

Share of Scottsdale's $3M+ sales dollars behind two gates

Silverleaf and Desert Mountain together accounted for nearly a quarter of every dollar spent on homes above $3M in Scottsdale over the last twelve months. Two communities set the pace for the whole top of the city, which is why the Digest follows each of them on its own.
