A property at 2300 South Street in Racine sold for $2.2 million and a property at 4221 Courtney Road in the Town of Raymond sold for $2.438 million. Here's what we found on each:

2300 South St., $2.2 million

This is the home of Domanik Sales, the local beer distributor recently sold to CJW Distributors out of Kenosha. The building is located near Batten International Airport and was assessed at $2.06 million in 2006 with paid property taxes of $49,681.98.

4221 Courtney Road, $2.438 million

This is the home of Speciality Tapes, a division of RSW, Inc. We couldn't find any news on the company, so it's unclear why the building sold.
