Baseball hall of famers George Brett and Ryne Sandberg, PGA golfer Pat Perez, NFL defensive end Jared Allen, as well as hundreds of company executives, lawyers and doctors have bought and sold million-dollar homes in metro Phoenix’s poshest neighborhoods this year.
The Valley’s luxury housing market has picked up after too many high-priced listings hit the market and overshot demand from deep-pocketed buyers.
Seven-figure home sales in the Phoenix area were up more than 30 percent in March from the previous year.
