Defining the luxury real estate market isn’t simple. From Boston to Miami to Los Angeles, the word luxury has a different definition. In some areas, luxury is defined as anything over $1 million. In pricey parts of Los Angeles, single-family homes often are listed at $5 million and above.
The numbers of sales in 2017 and 2018 YTD in the $5 million and $10 million and above range in Los Angeles County are interesting. In 2017, 127 single-family homes sold above $10 million. That number jumped to 551 in the $5 million to $10 million range. Condominium sales above $5 million were at 19 and dipped to five in the $10 million-plus slot. Those condo numbers are small because of less inventory than single-family homes with those hefty price tags.
Looking at this year through September 27, a total of 438 single-family homes over $5 million and 93 over $10 million sold. There were 21 condo sales above $5 million only three over $10 million.
