SCOTTSDALE, AZ. – Welcome to The Brownstones at Artesia, a master planned private community set jewel-like into 44 prime acres convenient to desirable Scottsdale and bustling Phoenix! A golden opportunity to live the sophisticated southwest lifestyle presents itself to registered bidders at Kennedy Wilson's February 8th Grand Opening auction, when 20 luxury brownstones at Artesia will cross the auction block. Successful bidders can realize unheard-of savings on full-featured luxury homes previously priced well beyond their means.
The auction features greatly discounted prices starting at $340,000 to $520,000 on luxury brownstone condominiums previously priced from $1,064,900 to $1,514,900. It's hard to believe million-dollar homes are being offered at such huge discounts – published reserve prices are over 50 percent off the previous list prices and the Minimum Opening Bids start even lower! It can truthfully be stated that luxury living in spectacular Scottsdale has NEVER been more affordable!
Beverly Hills-based real estate auctioneers Kennedy Wilson would like to stress the unprecedented transparency of the upcoming grand opening auction. "All Published Reserve and Minimum Opening Bid prices on these beautiful brownstones have been published beforehand in our full-color brochure and will be on display on auction day," states Rhett Winchell, President of Kennedy Wilson's Auction Group. "Our intent is to foster an atmosphere of openness that will appeal to first-time bidders, but will also give real estate auction veterans a real sense of comfort. Bidders will be aware from the get-go that there are no hidden reserves and no buyer's premiums to be paid upon winning their dream home at Artesia."
The seller, respected builder Starpointe Communities, has arranged with Countrywide Bank, FSB and Homeowner's Financial Group to offer successful auction bidders a range of excellent financing programs. Both lenders will have representatives at the Artesia Auction Information Office and on auction day to answer questions and assist bidders with qualification procedures.
