Seven gures is not what it used to be
■ Luxury now starts at $1.3 million
Amillion-dollar home used to be the epitome of luxury, but Realtor. com’s new What is Luxury Report shows that the luxury threshold has risen from $796,922 in 2016 to about $1.3 million today. While a $1 million home was comfortably above the luxury bar in 2016, buyers now need to spend closer to $1.6 million to reach that same level of luxury status.
“While a million-dollar home still represents an important benchmark, it’s not the luxury marker that it once was nationwide and in many markets,” said Danielle Hale, chief economist at Realtor. com. “With or without a seven- gure
price tag, luxury is o en about exclusivity and relative standing in a local market. In many areas a high-end home can rise many multiples above the area’s typical home price. Further, with a dramatic rise in home prices, Realtor.com data shows just how dramatically the de nition of luxury has shi ed over the past decade.”
New luxury benchmarks
Luxury isn’t a xed price point, that’s why Realtor.com’s report de nes it by the share of the most expensive homes, both nationwide and in each market. Nationally, a $1 million listing used to sit just below the top 5% of homes in 2016

$1.3 million in the nation, according to a Realtor.com report.
and was still among the top 10% before the pandemic. Today, the thresholds look like this:
• Entry-level luxury: The top 10% most expensive homes nationwide; starts at $1.3 million
• High-end luxury: Top 5% of homes nationwide; starts at $2 million
• Ultra-luxury: Top 1% of homes nationwide; starts at $5.4 million, where uniqueness, location and lifestyle amenities o en outweigh traditional valuation.
Nationwide, entry-level luxury homes are listed for nearly three times the median U.S. home price of $439,450 (July 2025), while high-end luxury prices start at nearly ve times that and ultra-luxury climbs to more than 12 times the typical home price.
Coastal markets lead
Realtor.com’s report identi ed both metro and micro areas across the country with the highest entry-level luxury prices, looking at markets with at least 500 active million-dollar listings in July 2025. While many of these areas are known for overall high housing costs, they
also tend to feature wide-ranging real estate markets, where the gap between the typical home price and a luxury property is especially pronounced. Coastal enclaves and vacation havens dominate the nation’s highest entry-level luxury prices.
New luxury landscape
Although $1 million no longer marks the entry to luxury, it remains a powerful psychological benchmark. Nationwide, milliondollar homes still make up only 13% of listings and in metros long synonymous with upscale living they are especially prevalent. These “staple” luxury markets consistently lead in million-dollar inventory — places where highend living isn’t an outlier, but rather the norm. From California’s coastal enclaves to wealth hubs in the Northeast, just 10 metros account for more than a third (36%) of all milliondollar listings nationwide. Their dominance underscores deep and sustained demand for premium real estate, fueled by international appeal, constrained land supply and concentrations of high-paying jobs.
