SUMMERLIN, Nev., March 6, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MIRA VILLA, a luxury condominium community in Summerlin, NV has generated more than $19.3 million in sales since Fall 2011, outpacing the sales activity in the Las Vegas market and triggering the release of the condominium project's second-and last-collection of inventory sooner than projected. The project is currently pacing at roughly three sales per month, with an average sale price of more than $500,000 for the 40 units sold.
Colorado-based Condo Capital Solutions (CCS) acquired 93 MIRA VILLA units from bankruptcy in 2011. The company's first release of inventory consisted of 49 condominiums ranging between 2,000 and 4,000 square feet with prices ranging from $365,000 - $1.3 million. Due to CCS's ownership, a stabilized homeowners association and an experienced sales and marketing team, the first release of inventory is nearly sold out and more than 50 percent of the community is occupied. MIRA VILLA's second release of inventory to the general public begins March 1, 2013. To date, more than $3.5 million in early reservations have been secured for the second release.
"There are several reasons buyers are attracted to MIRA VILLA," says Tera Anderson, vice president of Nexus 30 Properties. "The main reason is the absolute convenience of condominium living without sacrificing space and elegance. Mira Villa combines that with exceptional quality building, attention to detail, amenities, a perfect Summerlin location and a personal and transparent buying experience. This is why the community has been so successful."
Anderson says that at the outset of CCS's ownership, the community's biggest hurdles were potential buyers wondering about MIRA VILLA's stability in the wake of its previous bankruptcy and the overall market conditions, both in the Las Vegas area and nationally. She says that particular hurdle was quickly overcome and sales have been steadily increasing since. In fact, many owners at MIRA VILLA are Las Vegas-area locals and 75% of the purchased units are owner occupied.
"After exploring their purchase options in a real estate market that many of them know quite well, our buyers chose MIRA VILLA," adds Anderson. "There is a real community here, an element that unfortunately is counter to the recent market trend in the Las Vegas area which has seen numerous short sales and foreclosures. There is also pride of ownership in a quality project with a well-funded HOA that is evident to our prospective buyers. The stable pricing and stable HOA give buyers an added sense of security," Anderson says.
Though MIRA VILLA's sales have been strong for more than a year, the continued overall improvement in the Las Vegas real estate market, coupled with the ongoing reduction in inventory, adds to the community's success.
"The project's owners, Condo Capital Solutions, are recognized as leaders in developments like MIRA VILLA," adds Anderson. "Their system of due-diligence when acquiring a property is focused on stabilizing the project in all aspects. This methodical analysis is subsequently attractive to buyers and mortgage lenders alike. Without a doubt, CCS's backing has contributed to our success in the post-recession economic climate."
