According to luxuryatcompass.com, the ultra-luxury real estate market in the United States demonstrated exceptional resilience in the first half of 2024, attracting high-net-worth buyers who view prime properties as secure investments.
Public sales of homes priced at $10 million and above surged to 838 transactions, generating a staggering $14.66 billion in sales volume. This represents a significant increase compared to the first half of 2023, highlighting the growing preference among affluent buyers for real estate as a hedge against inflation. Many of these transactions were completed with all-cash offers, a strategic move to avoid the impact of high mortgage rates.
