America's most expensive homes on the market, fall 2014
By Catherine Sherman, Zillow Blog
In 2012, the 10 most expensive homes in the U.S. started at $65 million. A year ago, the bottom of the list jumped to $75 million.
Now, anything in the $60 million, $70 million or $80 million range doesn’t even come close.
The most expensive listings are another breed this fall, starting at $98 million and going up to $150 million. Eight of the 11 most expensive homes in America are priced at nine figures.
But don’t confuse price for hype. These listings are ultra-exclusive. Many aren’t on the Multiple Listing Service, with addresses revealed to serious buyers by appointment only.
And the list doesn't include one property in the news recently: In July, reports surfaced saying that the Spelling Manor was being quietly shopped around. Zillow’s sources say the rumors aren’t true.
