April brought 17 million-dollar sales in Rock Hill area. One deal in May dwarfed them all
April brought million-dollar land sales across York, Lancaster and Chester counties that combined for more than $40 million.
A single sale the first day of May dwarfed them all, combined.
A company with the same address and contact as Knightvest Capital in Dallas bought the Brayden apartments, between Fort Mill and Tega Cay, on May 1 for $70 million.
The 17 sales for $1 million or more in April can’t compete with that price tag. They include a mix of activity — apartment units, a quarry, former restaurant sites, auto spots and car washes. Plus, high-end homes that sold in Fort Mill and Lake Wylie.
Here’s a look at the biggest sales for April, according to county land records.
