NUMBER OF $1 MILLION HOMES
HAS QUADRUPLED SINCE 2002,
NOW 4.3% OF ALL HOMES
P U B L I S H E R ' S M U S E
All property data taken from CRMLS for select Westside areas for the time
period January 1 through December 31 2017. Single Family Residences only.
Information is deemed accurate but not guaranteed.
According to a Trulia research report, $1 million may no longer get buyers into the
luxury home market – it's more like $5 million as the new bar for luxury living. In
fact, even $5 million homes are becoming less exclusive, as the number of these
homes is five times higher than in 2002. Of all the listings, over 7,000 were listed in
the top 100 U.S. metros in 2017 – 0.28% were listed at $5 million or more.
That's certainly the case on the Westside.
Brentwood had only (7) closed sales in 2017 under $1.5 million, and (73) closed
sales over $5 million – that's 29.2% of all of the homes sold in Brentwood last year.
The average closed sale price was $4,277,878 in Brentwood last year.
Comparatively, Pacific Palisades had only (1) closed sale under $1.5 million last
year, and (52) over $5 million, which represented 20% of the total market sales.
The average closed price for Pacific Palisades was $3,989,789 last year.
On the other hand, Santa Monica had (28) sales under $1.5 million, and (32) sales
over $5 million, which represented 12.8% of total market sales in 2017.
Interestingly, of the (758) single-family home sales combined in these areas
last year, a total of (24) homes sold over $10 million and the share of $5 million
plus homes sold was 20.7% of the total market. The highest closed sales price
in Brentwood, Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica last year was $23,000,000.
(South Bay had (54) total sales above $5 million in 2017, representing 3.59% of
total market sales.)
