The Las Vegas luxury resale market remained on a record pace through July led by a $25.25 million sale in MacDonald Highlands.
Real Estate Millions highlighted the sale of the Blue Heron-designed home that was owned by Anthony Hsieh, founder and chairman of LoanDepot.
It was one of 171 sales of $1 million and higher in July, matching the number in July 2024. The average price paid for a luxury home in July was $1.96 million, according to Forrest Barbee, corporate broker of Berkshire Hathaway Home Service.
Barbee reported there were 195 pending sales of $1 million and higher, showing that the luxury market isn’t slowing down while sales drop in the market overall.
Sales in the $1 million to $2 million range at the lower end of the luxury benchmark picked up in July while there was a drop off in sales over $2 million. Realtor Rob Jensen reported 40 sales of $2 million and higher in July, down from 49 a year ago.
The No. 2 sale in July was in The Ridges in Summerlin for $10.75 million.
The one-story home of 7,669 square feet has five bedrooms, 5½ baths and a five-car garage. It sits on 0.85 acre and was built in 2022.
