It was a week of quick contracts: the sales at Nos. 2 through 5 each went under contract within seven days of the current listing date, and three closed above their final asking prices. Howard Hanna Capital Inc represented the listing side on two of this week’s five highest-priced reported sales, at Nos. 1 and 4.
