In summary, over half of the properties that were being sold Saturday were confirmed sold (I waited around to see people signing contracts just to be sure these properties actually sold) and it seemed like the remaining properties had a good chance of being sold.
Winning bids on the condos?.......
The top floor units (3rd floor) went for 395K plus the buyer's premium. The units on the 1st and 2nd floors went for 355K and 345K plus the buyer's premium.
On a technical note, a signed contract is not equivalent to a sold property, especially in today's market.
I understand a signed contract does not ensure a closing, but it does show offer and acceptance. And I don't know many people who would walk from a non-refundable 10% deposit.
...it's been a pretty regular event since the beginning of the dot-condo meltdown.
.
I consider the dot-condo meltdown (I love that term by the way!) a different situation. Most of those were people who had committed at the market boom and by the time they were ready to close, the bubble had burst and many of these units were not worth 200K and more less than they had committed too. I can't blame them from walking from that.
How many properties will be sold on the 17th ol wise group.
(but I did hear her laughing in the background).
