Tucson, AZ – Yesterday afternoon, J. P. King Auction Company auctioned scenic Calabria Ranch Estate Homes located on the Tanque Verde Wash in Tucson, Arizona for $3.113 million.
With a high attendance of more than 100 people, 30 registered bidders from Arizona, Oregon, Florida and Winnipeg, Canada enthusiastically bid on the five high-end, east side properties for more than two and a half hours with all properties sold to four winning bidders.
In the days prior to the auction, 40 tours were taken of the properties.
Kathy Gormally, Tierra Antiqua Realty, said, “The electric-like excitement permeated the Great Room where we, the bidders, sat ready. I was representing my client Stuart Scibetta as his real estate agent. We were both amazed at the length of time the auction allowed in order to give the bidders the greatest opportunity to obtain their desired result. We ended up with the two properties we had come to purchase. Great professionals, great entertainment and, yes, we got our properties!”
“Recognizing that luxury real estate auctions are uncommon in Tucson, we are delighted that J.P. King Auction Company was part of this successful auction event. There was a broad field of active bidders for these attractive estate homes that include good acreage and an excellent location,” said Craig King, President and CEO, J.P. King Auction Company.
