"My wife and I moved from New York and wanted to build an elegant resort-like estate in Arizona. We spent five years on the project and wanted it to be self-contained so we would never want or have to leave," stated Sussman. "We have chosen Concierge Auctions to sell our home because of its expertise in the industry, and its impressive national and international reach to buyers. We look forward to the outcome of the Arizona Sale."

"My children have all since grown and gone off to college, and it's time for us to move on and part from our family home as well," says Johnson. "Just as you would sell art and cars through auctions, real estate auction firms provide an alternative platform to sell ultra-luxe properties efficiently within a given timeframe. I chose to partner with Concierge Auctions because of their proven track record for being a leader in this space and look forward to the results."

"A property of this magnitude and quality rarely comes to market. It truly offers something for everyone — from the commercial-grade fitness center and studio-quality home theater to the gourmet chef's kitchen and top-of-the-line appliances. To build something similar would take at least three to four years and require an almost unlimited budget."
