US HOA Basics Every Buyer Should Know
The range we see in US luxury home sales right now is remarkable. Recent data from a listings platform shows luxury transactions in major metros spanning from $3.7M up to an eye-catching $130M. While $130M stands as the top sale, other significant closings have reached $47M, $40.2M, $40M, $21.2M, $19M, $18M, and $17.5M across the country. Interestingly, there are four standout markets where even the fifth-highest sale exceeded $10M—a real testament to the depth and resilience of luxury pricing in those areas. In one particular metro, the five priciest sales all clustered between $24M and $40M, signaling a tightly grouped high-end market. It’s worth noting that these figures are based on publicly marketed properties, so private sales and nondisclosure markets might not be fully captured. Having worked in St Louis real estate for over two decades, I always find it fascinating to compare our market’s dynamics with these national luxury trends. Every region has its own story to tell when it comes to high-end real estate.
