Though the average price of a luxury home in the premier residential real estate markets of London, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Paris, and Sydney starts in excess of $3 million, affluent homebuyers looking to invest in smaller and emerging luxury residential markets still have significant purchasing power.
Around the world, the properties available in the $5 million category can differ dramatically. In the top global cities, a $5 million property can range from an elegant flat in London’s Belgravia to a contemporary Harbourside estate in Sydney. For home-seekers looking to invest in smaller cities and suburbs, emerging, second-home, and resort markets, or in an experiential property that comes complete with its own luxury lifestyle, a remarkable array of real estate offerings await. Among the exciting options are vineyard estates in Bordeaux, France, and Chianti, Italy; equestrian estates in Petrópolis, Brazil, and New Canaan, Connecticut; golf properties in Lisbon, Portugal, and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic; and resort-style hideaways in Mykonos, Greece, and Montego Bay, Jamaica.
