Metro Phoenix’s uber-luxury home market is bucking the area’s slowdown in sales.
Sales of houses priced above $2 million were up 63 percent in August compared with a year ago, according to the latest monthly report on the northeast Valley from Walt Danley Realty and real estate analyst Mike Orr’s Cromford Report.
