EDITOR’S LETTER

UNIQUEHOMES

By Kathleen Carlin-Russell

Optimism. Like many, it’s a word I have tried to incorporate into my daily life — and put into action — in recent years. After the rather unique year in luxury we just said goodbye to, it was great to see it kick off our annual Outlook story for 2024. As always, we spoke to experts from across the luxury realm to get their insights on what’s to come in the year ahead. Once again, lifestyle is playing a huge role. One quote included in the piece really stood out to me: “People want to be living their best life...”

Born out of the pandemic, upscale consumers are refocusing, reprioritizing and

redefining what luxury is — and where they may find it. Traditional luxury locales (think

Miami, Beverly Hills, et cetera) will always exist, but that list is definitely expanding. It’s

all about the individual perspective — what each buyer’s view of luxury is, and what it means to them. Today’s luxury lists include areas across the Midwest and up North — you may be surprised to hear where! To find out more, please turn to page 43.

Couched within all these new luxury trends, however, are things that have not changed. At the highest levels of the luxury market, trophy properties still exist and are holding their value. Location, amenities, lifestyle and a fair price are still defining features. In many cases, that it is a property on the water, be it creek, lake, bay or ocean. We offer about 500 such options in our top waterfront properties list, starting on page 19.

You may also want to tour our cover home, a truly unique Marathon, Florida, estate with a 5-acre waterfront site complete with a marina, rainforest, orchard and more.

Paradise Awaits

By Marlene Ridgway

W

elcome to 9300 Overseas Highway in Marathon, Florida, a resort-like waterfront estate that transcends the ordinary. This 5-bedroom, 9-bath home is situated on a rare 5-acre lot that provides easy access to the airport, yet resembles the look and feel of a secluded tropical retreat. According to Lisa Wiebe, a real estate agent at Coldwell Banker Schmitt Real Estate Co., the standout components of this listing are plentiful, from the extra-large pool, boat ramp, and marina, to the opportunity for a private hangar acquisition.

Even the most skilled photographer can not truly capture the spectacle that is revealed upon entering the lush grounds of this listing. “One is greeted by the relaxing sound of a rushing waterfall,” says Wiebe. “The driveway then leads alongside a private rainforest, complete with winding walking trails, a serene pond, a gazebo with a hammock for even more relaxation, along with an abundant fruit orchard.”

An expansive 195,000-gallon pool extends around

the house, and tucked into the outdoor oasis are hidden waterfalls and features, a spa, a tropical swim-up tiki bar, and an unforgettable, winding Tahitian-style river. Towering palm trees, arched bridges, stone walkways, and flowering foliage complete this haven by the sea.

Inside, the main and guest house continues to marvel with 8,573 square feet of expertly designed and decorated living space. An eat-in kitchen, with high-quality appliances and classic finishes, is perfect for entertaining. “Each of the three guest en suites offers private balconies with steps right into the pool,” says Wiebe. The unique combination of decor inside invites guests and offers a grand setting that is unforgettable.

Completing the opulent home is the master bathroom.

“It has a stunning coral wall that includes a waterfall feature,” says Wiebe. Final touches in the master bath are a nod toward more modern times with TVs set within the mirrors of the vanities for streaming from the tub. Lisa Wiebe is listing this prestigious find for $21,000,000.

A Path to Prosperity

Navigate 2024’s luxury market with insights and opportunities from industry experts.

If

you wanted to select one word to characterize luxury real estate heading into 2024, it would be optimism.

When asking agents about the state of luxury real estate at the end of 2023, their responses were “all over the spectrum!” shared Meghan Barry, president of Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate. “Some are enthusiastic, some are cautiously optimistic, some are seriously doom and gloom. I think people are hopeful that the change in the calendar will bring on a change in attitude from buyers and sellers.”

But more than just turning a new page on the calendar inspired the year-end swell of optimism regarding real estate. As 2023 transitioned into 2024, positives continued to emerge. The data wasn’t

necessarily spectacular, and improvements were modest. Still, all were good indicators that real estate, which had been in a deep freeze for most of the year resulting from what Diane Swonk, chief economist at KPMG U.S., characterized as a “mortgage winter,” might be beginning to thaw.

November’s existing home sales increased by 0.8%, reversing a streak of five consecutive monthly declines, per the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Still, overall transactions fell by 7.3% year-overyear. NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun emphasized that November figures reflected an October bidding process when mortgage rates were at a two-decade high. “A marked turn can be expected as mortgage rates have plunged in recent weeks,” he said.

COURSE CORRECTION “There is reason for optimism,” noted Michael Altneu, vice president of Coldwell Banker Global Luxury, referencing recent rate changes. Between late October and midDecember, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage plummeted more than a percentage point.

According to Freddie Mac, U.S. averages for the first week of January were 6.62% for a 30-year fixed rate and 5.89% for a 15-year.

In the Bay area, Caroline Huo, director of professional development at Keller Williams Luxury, said, “We were encouraged by the Fed’s announcements of the lowering of interest rates next year, and we already feel buyers are kind of at the gate, ready to go. There’s still a lot of pent-up demand. It’s going to depend on not just interest rates, but also what’s happening economically with the companies.”

Still, Altneu cautioned, “It’s hard to say how much change will occur in 2024 as we’re still heavily invested in interest rates and what will happen with either maintaining rates or smaller cuts.”

“The glimmer of change grows bright,” asserted the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing (ILHM) in their December luxury market report.

Single-family home sales rose 5.1% and attached 13.7% over November 2022. Yearover-year, new single-family listings increased by 21.1% and 29.3% for attached homes.

Following a holiday pause in activity, Kathleen Bibbins, ILHM’s general manager, noted, “Our members are receiving calls from people who are planning to sell in 2024.”

SUPER SIMPLE? “The outlook this year is super simple,” said Marci Rossell, chief economist for Leading RE and Luxury Portfolio. “Sometime in the second quarter of 2024, the Federal Reserve is going to start lowering the Fed funds target rate, and that will be the development of 2024.”

The most rate-sensitive sector in the economy was housing, according to Rossell.

“The shock was that the rest of the economy weathered rate increases very, very well. Growth picked up pretty much in every single sector, with the exception of real estate, venture capital, and mergers and acquisitions. Those three took the brunt of the storm when, normally, interest rate increases would have had a broad effect on the economy.”

RATE PLAYS The popular perception is that interest rates do not affect the luxury sector. In reality, rates play into a broad dynamic. Rossell explained: “Lowering interest rates benefits 44

“The outlook this year is super simple,” said Marci Rossell, chief economist for Leading RE and Luxury Portfolio. “Sometime in the second quarter of 2024, the Federal Reserve is going to start lowering the Fed funds target rate, and that will be the development of 2024.”

“In this sector, interest rates play a pivotal role,” said Christy Budnick, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, referring to the mid-to-high range of the market. “Not only do rates determine purchasing power, but also someone will decide if they are financially able to sell and move to another home that is suitable for their needs.”

buyers across the board, even if they are paying cash. With short-term rates as high as they’ve been, money market funds have been an extremely attractive place to park cash. These short-term rates, which everyone understood were temporary, were an incredible investment opportunity for anyone with excess cash. As rates ease back, other assets like real estate will look more attractive again. And that will be the story of the second, third and fourth quarter of 2024, as inflation returns to the Fed’s 2% level, which gives them the latitude to begin to cut rates.”

“Lower rates may provide much-needed inventory relief and bring back potential buyers who were previously waiting on the sidelines,” said Altneu.

“In this sector, interest rates play a pivotal role,” said Christy Budnick, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, referring to the midto-high range of the market. “Not only do rates determine purchasing power, but also someone will decide if they are financially able to sell and move to another home that is suitable for their needs.” Most agree inventory and interest rates will be key in determining how the real estate market will trend in 2024. “A loosening of interest rates will certainly invigorate the market.

We will just need to see how tight inventory will be in areas that are particularly sought after and dense,” added Budnick.

TROPHY PREMIUMS In San Francisco markets, higher-priced properties, particularly those with prime locations and unique amenities, were still holding value and selling in 2023, explained Huo. Entry-level luxury in her area is in the $3 million to $10 million range. “We saw these buyers pull back because of interest rates and inflation squeeze.

Buyers were also being extremely selective,” she added. Prime locations and unique amenities remain most desired. Often in the higher end, $20 million to $25 million-plus bracket, these properties continued to hold value, and, she says, there was even some price growth.

Additionally, Huo said, “We saw a movement and preference for trophy properties, especially exceptional locations, architectural significance, and stunning natural settings. And many of our ultra-luxury clients are looking to go elsewhere to Montana and to Utah, or to the Carolinas and buy exceptional properties that offer experiences.”

“We believe that trophy homes in prime locations that are priced fairly will continue to trade in 2024,” said Budnick.

Both ends of the luxury spectrum depend on two factors: whether we see more luxury UNIQUE HOMES

destinations that offer favorable lifestyles and allow for a stronger purchasing power will remain favorable, and new ones will continue to emerge as pricing shifts,” says Budnick.

Lifestyle and lower prices are also creating new upscale suburban areas, with demand pushing into even more distant locations.

Portland, Maine, ranked as the most popular metro for luxury buyers per The Wall Street Journal/Realtor.com Emerging Housing Markets Index. It is only one of several places outside of Boston getting a second look from upscale buyers. The Detroit, Warren and Dearborn area was No. 9 on this list, while St. Louis ranked fifth.

Montana MORE LUXURY, MORE PLACES One pandemic legacy is the emergence of places relatively new to the high-end arena as well as the expansion of luxury in others.

Some offer a unique or much-desired lifestyle; others have financial advantages. While slim inventories boosted overall home prices in major cities including Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and San Diego, Detroit posted the greatest gain — 8.1%.

Days on market come in under 10 in many areas including St. Louis, Cincinnati, Knoxville, Tennessee, Richmond, and New York’s Finger Lakes region. Zillow’s pick for 2024’s hottest overall market is one of the chilliest in the U.S. — Buffalo. Midwest locales rank high on their list, which includes Columbus, Ohio and Indianapolis.

“The pandemic did alter prices for the luxury market for certain areas, as some people moved from larger cities with more expensive real estate to more rural areas where their dollar stretched considerably further. We believe that as remote working for so many is here to stay,

In addition to places newly perceived as high-end, the migration has upped the luxury cachet and prices in other locations. For example, in Florida’s Tampa, St. Petersburg area, entry-level luxury price points have risen from $1 million to the $3 million range, according to Robert Glaser, CEO of Smith & Associates Real Estate.

“As we head into 2024, I foresee the major high-end markets continuing to see steady demand, but I also foresee demand for one-ofa-kind properties, like a private tropical island, trophy architectural penthouses and remote wellness enclaves will be in even higher demand among high-net-worth consumers,” said Anton.

Also on the distant horizon is a potential pullback in luxury. It’s already taking place in fashion and some expect it to influence luxury properties. Rossell has reservations, “People are still going to spend if it’s the house of their dreams. There just doesn’t seem to be any sign that consumers are weakening in the slightest, regardless of where they stand, whether they are a low or medium luxury.”

properties for sale and how much of the luxury inventory for sale will be offset by buyers.

Inventory constraints are a concern as a whole, and until we see more people list their homes and get comfortable with current rates, that issue will continue. On the flip side, prices have increased and buyers are still looking for opportunity amidst the inventory constraints,” said Altneu.

Dollar signs and zeros are customary benchmarks for luxury. Price parameters haven’t changed with the top 5% or 10% of any market considered luxury. However, a new perception of luxury, which takes lifestyle into consideration, is evolving and will continue to shape upscale markets in 2024.

“For every consumer, price is a factor; however, for high-end consumers luxury transcends price,” shared Stephanie Anton, president of Corcoran Affiliates. “Ultimately, I believe that luxury consumers will continue to approach real estate with a personal view of what ‘luxury’ means to them, setting new trends rather than following them.”

Anton noted her brand’s perception of luxury; “At Corcoran, luxury is a mindset.

It is the discovery of a residence that allows someone to embrace their ideal lifestyle.

This could be a one-bedroom beachfront condo that acts as an idyllic escape or a custom mountainside chalet that acts as an entertainer’s haven. Both are luxury in the eyes of their owner.”

“Buyers continue to be driven by lifestyle in most markets, a trend that’s been percolating over the last few years. In any market, in any price point, people want to be living their best life,” said Barry.

earless reinvention. It’s been a theme for the Coldwell Banker® brand since its inception

more than a century ago. We find ourselves at a moment of fearless reinvention yet again – this time, in the pages of this magazine.

For the first time, we’re covering our award-winning Trend Report in this very special edition of Homes & Estates. The Trend Report is considered luxury real estate’s definitive guide to the newest and next trends driving the market.

For 2024, we’re bringing you six data-driven articles that will give you a more complete picture of where the market is headed this year. First, there is the late-breaking positive news that came out of 2023 – namely, that sales and inventory levels in the luxury sector got an end-of-year bump. If you’re wondering which property types are among the most in-demand for today’s increasingly selective luxury buyers, look no further than our story, “Aiming High.” The buzziest topic of the year is, of course, generative AI – so we interviewed tech expert Matt Britton, founder and CEO of Suzy, about its promises and pitfalls as well as disruptive potential for real estate. With the help of Wealth-X and Barton Consulting, we explore two demographic groups who are poised to influence the luxury home market: the next generation of HENRYs (High Earners Not Rich Yet) as they eventually become first-time luxury homebuyers, and high-net-worth international buyers. We close out our Trend Report coverage with an analysis on the expected growth of the smart-home industry as AI enters the picture. Of course, intermingled among these stories are plenty of beautiful property images if you simply want to look at the most envy-inducing homes currently on the market!

Covering The Trend Report in our flagship magazine is an evolution of our brand offerings as Coldwell Banker Real Estate constantly dreams up new ways to inspire and inform both our clients and agents in the luxury world.

Furthermore, the home’s linear design “draws parallels to a contemporary coastal compound, while simultaneously acknowledging the meticulous details that reflect the sophistication of a spectacular yacht,” says Brittany Hahn Games, Luxury Property Specialist at Coldwell Banker West.

The exterior of the home is bound to turn heads, but the impeccable interior finishes and decor by Arianna Noppenberger of Aria Designs, also invoke a feeling of refined luxury. The simplicity and clean lines emphasize the stunning views and create an atmosphere that makes relaxation easy.

In addition to aesthetics, the home is complete with modern technology. “Smart home integration by Crestron provides a single platform to remotely control pool/spa, security, lighting, audio, entertainment systems, and shades,” says Woodruff. “Ultra-slim LED recessed lighting, unique fixtures, and creative lighting designs also contribute to the overall aesthetic of the estate.”

Not a single detail was overlooked at 3 The Point. The home was crafted from high-performance materials that provide insulation, durability, and sustainability that not only enhance the functionality of the home, but contribute to a contemporary and sophisticated living experience that is unmatched.

shifting into another gear.

After three relatively sluggish quarters in 2023, sales numbers increased in the fourth quarter compared to the same period in 2022, according to an analysis of 130 U.S. markets by the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing. By the end of November 2023, luxury single-family sales notched up by approximately 4.7% and sales for luxury attached homes shot up by 15% compared to the same time last year.

The number of new listings entering the market also increased compared to 2022. By the end of November 2023, new listings increased by rate of 15% for single-family homes and 27.9% for attached properties, compared to the same month in 2022.

And in a quarter that would typically see a 25-30% drop in sales compared to the previous quarter, the downturn has been much slower at an average of 15% for single-family homes and 10% for attached properties.

Fueling much of this momentum were the increased levels

ColdwellBankerLuxury.com | 7

of new inventory. New property listings did not decline in the last few months of 2023, boosting sales. This is significant because the lack of new inventory entering the market each month was one of the major roadblocks for buying activity during most of 2023.

“Will this listings boon, coupled with falling mortgage rates, finally grease the rusty housing market wheels?” wondered Margaret Heidenry for Realtor.com.1 DRIVING OUTCOMES FOR 2024: MACRO INFLUENCES

On the macro side, higher interest rates, housing shortages and conflicted consumer sentiment created a catch-22 situation for the real estate market in 2023. If just one of these macro influences shifts in 2024, such as interest rates dropping further, it could put buyers and sellers back in the driver’s seat again.

1. TAKING OFF THE GOLDEN HANDCUFFS Historically low interest rates, between 2-5%, seen during the pandemic years have become “golden handcuffs,” effectively “locking in” many luxury would-be sellers and keeping them from moving or listing their homes.

This dynamic has only exacerbated the problem of inventory – already at historic lows.2 This low supply of homes has kept prices high, even as mortgage rates rose, making it much more expensive to purchase a home than two years ago.

This is occurring in markets across the country, from small towns to the Big Apple. Said Broker Arlene Reed of Coldwell Banker Warburg: “New York City is experiencing what is neither a seller’s market nor a buyer’s market. There is limited supply, keeping prices fairly stable. Sellers do not want to give up their low-interest mortgages making it difficult for buyers to find what they want.”

In this current environment, rates must level off or come down for sales activity to pick up in 2024. That appears to be just what is happening. After the Federal Reserve announced it would leave interest rates unchanged in mid-December,3 Fed Chair Jerome Powell indicated that it was done with the 20-month-long rate-hiking campaign, saying, “It’s not likely we will hike again.”

If rates stay put or drop even .5% lower, this could jumpstart the market and spark more sellers to take off their Golden Handcuffs. Additional inventory would mean buyers (and sellers who become buyers) would have more property choices.

It could also ease upward pressure on home prices.

2. INVENTORY LEVELS IMPROVE According to conventional wisdom, a “balanced” real estate market requires 5 to 6 months of housing supply. According to Realtor.com, the number of homes for sale is still currently 41.8% below pre-pandemic levels.4 The current housing supply at the end of 2023 stood at an average of 4 months for luxury homes across 130 markets – an improvement from the record low of 1.4 months in December 2021, but still well below a buyer’s market.

While it seems like inventory levels are trending in a positive direction for 2024, the ongoing luxury housing shortage is expected to endure. Reduced interest rates may offer some relief, but they are unlikely to fully resolve the issue.

Increasing overall housing construction could be a solution, but persistent high materials costs and labor shortages may deter builders from initiating new projects. And even still, competition for the most desirable luxury homes – new construction or those in move-in-ready condition in good locations – will likely be high as affluent buyers have become even more selective than ever before.

3. CONSUMER OPTIMISM REVS UP Affluent buyers have always held a high standard of living but have become 8 | Homes & Estates

even choosier as they contend with a more expensive housing landscape. Some buyers changed their spending habits – whether it’s practicing “quiet luxury” and less ostentatious displays of wealth, waiting for the perfect property that aligns with their newfound wellness needs after the pandemic or simply holding off on major purchases like real estate until it’s more clear what direction interest rates were headed.

Still, affluent individuals in the U.S. tend to view the real estate market more positively than the rest of the population. According to a recent survey of luxury consumers conducted by Censuswide on behalf of the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® program, more of them believe that the market will be better (36.2%) or the same (36.5%) than worse (22.2%) in 2024.

If interest rates remain stable or drop modestly and desirable inventory levels improve, it could be just the fuel needed for consumers to feel good about moving forward on home purchases in 2024.

DRIVING OUTCOMES FOR 2024: MICRO NUANCES

In 2024, more micro nuances could be at play across individual geographic locations or even property types than in years past. Certain locations may be more impacted than others by the local economy, labor market stability or if their available inventory matches demand.

1. SUPPLY VS. DEMAND Looking at sales ratio, which is the barometer of supply and demand, some markets appear to be running hotter than others right now.

For instance, the Institute found that the average sales ratio for 2023 ranged from 37% in Will County, Illinois to 69% in East Bay, California, meaning that for every 10 homes 6.9 are selling – indicative of a strong seller’s market. Even at the end of 2023, the majority of these markets were seeing high demand with strong sales against inventory ratios.

Other top-tier markets such as Seattle, Sacramento, Denver, Chicago, Silicon Valley, Cincinnati, San Diego, Phoenix, Kansas City, San Francisco, Houston, Orlando, Salt Lake City, Dallas and Portland exhibited similar seller market signs, all registering an average sales ratio for 2023 above 21%.

As for those areas with lower sales ratios, it’s important to note that property location, price point and property type can all influence demand and supply in a particular area. For example, properties in certain locations will always be in high demand by affluent buyers and thus command a higher premium, such as

waterfront, ski-in/ski-out or trendy city blocks. Equally, certain property types – such as move-in-ready – are only acceptable properties for affluent buyers in some markets. Even homes at certain price points can see demand swing dramatically.

As Dawn McKenna, a Luxury Property Specialist based in Hinsdale, Illinois, with offices in Chicago and resort hotspots across Southwest Florida and the Midwest, noted: “With so many issues affecting prices and demand, it’s best that buyers and sellers not be too clever or trendy in their decision making. Stick to the fundamentals of location, quality and family.”

2. PRICES Despite what national headlines might say, prices are not down in every market nor are sellers making major concessions in every market.

For instance, luxury single-family homes sold on average at or slightly above asking price in Central Connecticut, Richmond in Virginia, East Bay in California, and Howard and Frederick Counties in Maryland. There were 19 other markets, spanning from Aspen to Seattle, which also logged sale-to-list-price ratios at 100% for their single-family homes.

For attached homes, East Bay and Howard County also fared well, with sale-to-list-price ratios slightly above 100% – along with Bay Area magnets Marin County and Silicon Valley. Luxury townhomes and condos in 14 other markets – ranging from California’s Central Coast and Los Angeles to several D.C. suburbs, including Montgomery County in Maryland and the Arlington and Alexandria areas, Fairfax County and McLean and Vienna areas in Virginia – were also getting their asking price on average.

Meanwhile, other markets have seen year-to-year slowdowns, with properties selling on average below list price. Pandemic haven Lake Tahoe and three of Florida’s hottest destinations during the 2020-2021 buying boom – Palm Beach, Miami and Marco Island – saw their sale-to-list-price ratios drop for

single-family homes. Almost the same markets also saw their sale-to-list-price ratios dip for attached homes: Miami, Marco Island and Lake Tahoe. This is not to say these markets aren’t on buyers’ real estate radars anymore. It’s more likely that they are simply cooling off from the overheated pandemic buying boom, and local sellers may need more time to adjust their price expectations.

3. MARKET TYPES Seasonal resort locations could perform differently than traditional primary home locations in 2024.

“Market performance in permanent resident locations like Chicago is much more tied to macro conditions,” noted McKenna. “In those locations, interest rates, taxes, and even election cycles are more consistently reflected in buyer and seller sentiment year-round.” But in the best seasonal markets like Naples, Park City, Harbour Country and Lake Geneva, macro conditions rarely override the micro-awesomeness of the lifestyle they offer. When these places are in the prime of their season, people tend to forget the world. Normal everyday stresses can seem far away.

A BROKER’S MARKET

If buyers and sellers do get back in the driver’s seat this year, they will need to take all of the current market’s complexities into account. Local nuances on the ground can have just as much of an impact on yearly market performance as larger influences, such as interest rates and supply vs. demand. Demand in certain price points, or for certain property types, may also vary.

All of these contradictions present in the market have prompted some real estate agents to quip: “It’s not a buyer’s market or a seller’s market. It’s a broker’s market.”

In other words, it may be more important now than ever to select a luxury real estate professional with proven “boots-on-the-ground” market knowledge and results.

technology, turnkey condition: today’s affluent buyers want it all. Despite higher interest rates and fewer properties to choose from, they’ve become more demanding and selective than ever.

“Agents have reported that buyers are more willing to wait to find the perfect house, which was not the case during the pandemic buying boom,” reports Michael Altneu, vice president of Global Luxury for Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC. “For that reason, homes that ‘have it all’ – that perfect combination of location, condition, schools and lifestyle – will continue to sell well this year. If priced correctly, many will get their asking price or more.”

Several findings support this view. In 2023, for example, a survey of over 600 Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialists found that demand for “move-in-ready” was second only to location.

In 20231, the sale-price-to-list-price ratio of luxury properties2 held steady at approximately 98.3% for single-family homes and 98.8% for attached properties – another indication that sellers with desirable luxury properties who priced their properties correctly were still getting their asking price.

Expectations for 2024 are that buyers will continue to set their standards high in search of their “unicorn” property. With that in mind, the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury program identified four property types that will be popular this year and satisfy buyers’ craving for having it all.

“OF-THE-MOMENT” LUXURY HOMES

Call it the trend that keeps on trending: turnkey is king. For the last several years, move-in-ready homes have been top of luxury home shoppers’ must-have lists. With fewer high-end listings to choose from in 2024, a propensity for immediate gratification and a general aversion to renovations, affluent buyers may be even more likely to adopt a “movein-and-enjoy-now” approach this year.

“There is an immediacy to people’s decisions in the luxury market,” says Linda Skolnick of Coldwell Banker Realty in Westport, Connecticut.

“They want it now and it has to be a certain quality – especially if it’s a second home.”

“Buyers need to understand that it’s still a seller’s market when the property is desirable.”

On their wish lists are new construction single-family homes or homes that have been updated to modern luxury standards, but also come with additional perks. Amenities that provide “a lifestyle experience,” fully appointed kitchens with integrated appliances and custom details like coffee bars and flex features that work from morning to night, pools with cabanas and guest houses for multi-generational living, dual home offices or the latest smart home automations are high on the priority list.

Move-in-ready properties sell. “The problem,” explains Skolnick, “is that there is not enough inventory of these homes in Westport.” She points to her waitlist of 33 buyers holding out for luxury new construction or feellike-new construction homes in the area. This is the part of the story that is often missing from the media narrative. “The numbers don’t tell the facts,” she laments. “In the luxury market, sales are down because we don’t have the right inventory. We could sell move-in-ready properties all day long if we had them.”

VERTICAL COUNTRY CLUBS

For a city dweller, nothing ticks the move-in-ready box like a brand-new high-rise condo offering access to a full portfolio of luxurious amenities, quality design, bespoke buildouts and a cache of sophisticated social programs consisting of curated events, classes and special services. Manhattan has seen several “vertical country clubs” hit the market with great fanfare and record sales in recent years, including the “mega-terrace” Central Park Tower on West 57th Street, 50 West 66th Street and One Wall Street.

“Developers are not just investing in building beautiful homes,” says broker Tate Kelly of Coldwell Banker Warburg. “They’re investing in a narrative, a unique story that reflects their specific personality. By offering these one-of-a-kind amenities, developers are essentially selling a membership into an exclusive club, appealing to those who want their living space to reflect their distinct tastes and aspirations while being surrounded by others with similar tastes and desires. It’s a smart move that transforms real estate into an experience, and buyers are responding exactly how the developers were hoping they would.”

Other cities like Boston have followed New York’s lead with its own brand of amenitized condo buildings.

“We’re seeing a lot of custom interior buildouts for kitchens and baths – so these spaces feel extremely personalized to the buyer and not what you’d expect to see from a spec home,” says Ricardo Rodriguez, a Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Specialist in Boston-Back Bay, who represents several luxury boutique developments. He has also noticed a shift in the depth of amenities: “It’s gone from a standard checklist of amenities – the gym, the pool, the concierge, etc. – to a bespoke set of amenities and social programming that define a complete lifestyle for a specific buyer profile.”

It used to be that the draw of living in a city center was that you were close to the hottest restaurants, shops, nightlife and cultural pursuits – but the new trend is that high-end developers are offering these elements inside the building for residents’ private use. “Like a vertical country club,” suggests Rodriguez.

Emerging from this trend is a growing number of high-end developers who are 12 | Homes & Estates

now incorporating private restaurants and food programs developed by Michelinstar chefs. Examples include 432 Park Avenue in New York City, The Perigon in Miami Beach and Raffles in Boston.

Developers have also put greater emphasis on outdoor spaces, wellness amenities and privacy in response to buyers’ demand for a sanctuary in the city following the COVID-19 pandemic. Rodriguez points to The Residences at 566 in the South End as an example.

“People want new construction, amenities and technology, but in my experience, they want it all in a boutique environment,” says Rodriguez. “Stealth wealth is driving a lot of their decisions. They don’t want flashy. They want a more personal and intimate experience.”

BRANDED RESIDENCES

Adjacent to the vertical country club, branded residences may be another rising star in 2024. The promise of new construction, secure five-star living and a cocktailsmeets-concierge lifestyle managed by the most prestigious names in the hotel, fashion or auto worlds could see a resurgence as buyers head back to cities or seek out secondary properties in international destinations.

According to Brainsre.news, this market3 is set to grow 55% by 2026 globally, with 324 projects with over 26,000 residential units in 52 countries, and 186 active projects worldwide.

• Ritz-Carlton and Four Seasons are the top hotel brands in terms of the number of projects globally.

• Aman and Six Senses have the highest growth rates, with 68% and 67% of their total portfolios in the development phase, respectively.

• Peninsula4 just entered the arena with the Peninsula Residences London.

• Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has grown its pipeline of Rosewood Residences with projects coming soon to Beverly Hills, Hillsboro Beach and Dallas’ Turtle Creek.

• Mandarin Oriental has also made a splash in the hotel-residence space with debuts in Barcelona, Beverly Hills and New York City, and a hybrid hotelresidence concept coming to Tel Aviv.

•

Joining these hotel brands in recent years are fashion and jewelry houses, including Armani, Roberto Cavalli, Fendi, and Bulgari, as well as car marques such as Porsche, Bentley, and Aston Martin, which have all launched residential developments.

Branded residences are popular throughout the United States, United Kingdom, Mexico, Thailand, China and the United Arab Emirates, particularly in Dubai5 where 46 branded residences are soon to be joined by more than 30 new residential developments. They tend to sprout up in established global cities – New York (home to the world’s first branded residence6 in 1927), Miami, London and Los Angeles – but emerging and maturing markets could be the next hotspots.

The Dominican Republic, with its beautiful beaches, welcoming culture and year-round tropical climate, will get its first five-star branded real estate offering in the first quarter of 2024.

H. Michael Heuser, broker-manager for Coldwell Banker Prime Realty and a Dominican Republic native, has watched the local luxury residential offerings mature over the last 20 years to keep pace with the influx of high-net-worth North Americans and Europeans flocking to its shores.

Branded residences are relatively new to the Punta Cana market, says Heuser, but he expects more branded offerings in the pipeline over the next several years.

“Associating with a brand can translate to higher premiums for luxury real estate developers,” he says. “For The Residences at St. Regis, Cap Cana, the name is adding to the value and the cost of the property – about 50% have already sold pre-construction.”

The branded residence market is set to grow 55% by 2026 globally.7

Changes in usage patterns also continue to drive interest in branded residences. With the shift toward remote or hybrid work, more affluent individuals may be on the hunt for secondary residences where they can live for longer periods of time. In many cases, a branded residence may offer them the ability to place their residence into a rental pool when not in use, allowing them to maximize their investment and have the property management details completely overseen by the brand – a feature more commonly seen in the hotel world.

“A brand name comes with instant cachet, comfort and familiarity for the buyer, especially if they are buying a secondary property or buying internationally, because they know that the property will always be taken care of and they can come and go as they please,” adds Heuser.

For these reasons, demand for branded residences is expected to remain strong worldwide in 2024 and the years ahead.

GOLF-LIFESTYLE HYBRID COMMUNITIES

Following the pandemic, golf communities enjoyed a surge as buyers sought more green space, fresh air and access to outdoor activities.

But some developers are reimagining the golf community with modern-day audiences in mind, adding amenities that extend beyond the fairways: lakes, farms, biking and hiking trails, fitness options for women, shopping, spa and wellness centers, five-star dining and other attractions that cater to a variety of lifestyles and passions.

These luxury golf-lifestyle hybrid communities have sprouted up across the United States and have continued to catch affluent buyers’ attention as of late – especially buyers moving out of high-cost coastal areas.

The Summit Club, nestled between Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area and the Las Vegas Strip, has since evolved into “the city’s only private residential lifestyle club community,”8 with 555 acres of five-star amenities. Highlights include a golf course, outdoor pursuits program, unique terrain-to-table culinary offerings and comprehensive events programming. A collection of 260 lots and luxury homes was expanded in 20229 with

“Developers are reimagining the golf community ... adding amenities that extend beyond the fairways.”

27 additional custom-home sites on 54 acres to accommodate demand, per media reports. The ultra-luxury community has reportedly attracted celebrities10 such as Mark Wahlberg, Céline Dion and other high-profile individuals from California.

“The Summit possesses one of the most important characteristics for high-net-worth and public individuals, and that is security,” notes Lillie Shines with Coldwell Banker Premier Realty who has listed a $23.5 million custom modern minimalist estate in The Summit Club – currently the only brand-new never-lived-in house for resale in the community. “It’s also an entire lifestyle they’re buying into – all behind private gates.”

“It’s not just about golf,” adds Shines. “While the golf course is great for the actual game, some of the real value in living at The Summit is the sheer range of lifestyle options offered and the views of open space. Sold price points in the last six months range from about $6 to $16 million

“Selling a luxury home in today’s market is about capturing potential buyers’ imaginations.” villas, retreats, cottages and Sunday homes to estate homes priced from the mid $300,000s to $1.5 million.

In Marietta and the suburbs around Atlanta, similar communities continue to hold their allure for wealthy buyers who are willing to write a check for $100,000 or more to join a country or golf club. Glennda Baker with Coldwell Banker Realty in Atlanta touts Marietta Country Club, Governors Towne Club and the Country Club of the South as examples: “A club membership is a status symbol and a networking mechanism. It’s more than just a lifestyle for many people – it’s a place to build your business.” Baker says she noticed a shift toward these communities after the pandemic. “If you buy property in one of these communities and it has a view of the fairway, tee or green, it will enhance the value. Typically, view properties sell for 10-15% more. Now, everyone wants a lifestyle where they can work from home, watch the golfers go by and be on the golf course by noon.”

Back in Vegas, Shines views golf-lifestyle hybrid communities as “strong preservers of value.”

“Even when Las Vegas had its worst housing market ever during the Great Recession, we saw these communities amongst the lowest decliners,” she says. “There is a lot of equity in these areas and households with substantial capacity. The scarcity of these homes, coupled with home prices set at the margin, means that only a few buyers are needed to sustain prices in this ultra luxury market.” for bungalows to $30 million for custom homes, and those prices really describe the value embedded in The Summit Club.”

Outside of Vegas, golf-lifestyle hybrid communities continue to demonstrate their value.

In Scottsdale, Arizona, there’s Desert Mountain11, an 8,300-acre masterplan that promises everything from “world-class tennis and hiking expeditions to wine tastings and al fresco art classes” – not to mention the world’s largest collection of private Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses (the current count is seven), including a distinct par-54 championship course, No. 7. Several Desert Mountain homes have reportedly sold at or near the $10 million mark.

About 50 miles northwest of Houston, Texas, the 767-acre Bluejack National community has been described as “another universe.”12 At build out, the community will comprise a total of 420 residences ranging from

CAPITALIZING ON LUXURY’S MOST WANTED

For sellers of any luxury property in 2024, the secret to optimizing the sale of their home doesn’t lie so much in the type of home they own but rather in the reasons these four property types are so popular. Understanding how these property types enrich people’s lives – whether it’s privacy, wellness amenities, lifestyle experiences, technology, design or a combination of it all – and why discerning modern luxury buyers consider them so desirable is key to achieving successful outcomes this year.

As Altneu reminds us: “Sellers who are willing to upgrade their properties with these qualities or features in mind, may be in the best position to capitalize on the ‘have-it-all’ mentality right now.

Selling a luxury home in today’s market is about connecting with and capturing potential buyers’ imaginations.”

The

HENRY Factor

Who are the future first-time luxury homebuyers? Get ready for the next generation of HENRYs to make waves in real estate.

16 | Homes & Estates

ENRYs are on the rise , and they’re poised to

make a splash in the next real estate cycle.

“What’s a HENRY?” you ask. It’s an acronym for “High Earners Not Rich Yet.” HENRYs are typically made up of millennial and Gen X individuals who earn substantial income – over $250,000 per year, according to Wealth-X, an Altrata Company – yet spend most of their income on expenses and haven’t built up enough assets to be considered wealthy yet.

As they build up their wealth over the next five years, many are expected to become first-time luxury homebuyers. Here is everything you need to know about the next generation of HENRYs – from their values to where they live, what they do for a living and where they could be headed next when they do finally take the plunge into luxury real estate.

WHO ARE HENRYS?

The HENRY term dates as far back as 2003, coined by writer Shawn Tully in a Fortune Magazine article.1 Generally, HENRYs are on their way or have the potential to build their wealth. With an average age of 43, many have only transitioned into earning high incomes within the last five years, and therefore not had time to accumulate a solid foundation.

See page 57 for a full list of resources.

They are more likely to be male, rather than female – with philanthropy, sports and extreme sports, outdoors and technology factoring high on their list of interests. They also tend to be digitally savvy and avid online shoppers. They also tend to live in major metropolitan areas, such as New York City.

ASCENDING TO FIRST-TIME LUXURY HOMEBUYER STATUS

While the overall wealth of those with a $5+ million in net-worth declined 7% in the U.S. between 2021 and 2022 following stock market declines, HENRYs saw their population soar to nearly 9 million at a growth rate of nearly 13% during this same period.

Wealth-X forecasts that this growth trajectory will continue into 2024.

“In recent years, there has been a notable rise in the count of individuals with high incomes, primarily attributed to the emergence of more complex job roles and investment prospects.

Additionally, salary adjustments made to counteract the effects of inflation in the United States contributed to this trend in part,” shared Maeen Shaban, director of research and analytics at Altrata.

“We think they could become a powerful group in the real estate market should they choose to exercise their ability to purchase a luxury property within the next few years. If you’d like, they are equivalent to ‘first-time’ homebuyers in the luxury sector.”

As the number of individuals earning at higher income levels is expected to grow, the actual number of potential first-time luxury homebuyers is also likely to grow. Continues Shaban: “The hypothesis is that a majority of them have not made a luxury real estate acquisition yet – but will do so when they are at the right life stage or are financially able.”

As this group matures and their wealth becomes more solidified, they are likely to turn their attention to making larger luxury purchases such as real estate as it typically coincides with 1) life See page 57 for a full list of resources.

stages such as settling down and starting a family and 2) their need for a luxury home that matches their aspirations or financial status.

Notes Winston Chesterfield, founder of UK-based strategic consulting firm Barton, which focuses on wealth and the luxury sector: “If you earn a very high income, particularly in high-cost cities like New York City, an entry level property is not going to be good enough for you. We’ve spoken to these people. Because they’re young, they see the prospect of buying property outside of the city as a later purchase, perhaps when they start having a family. They could be earning money suitable for a mortgage now – perhaps they even own a small non-luxury property and are earning equity or are quite happy renting. It’s just not at a luxury level yet.”

WHERE DO MOST HENRYS LIVE?

As previously noted, most HENRYs live in major metropolitan areas, where high-income jobs, culture and nightlife are plentiful.

Not surprisingly, in the United States, New York City ranks at the top of the list, followed by Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas and Washington, D.C. Somewhat paradoxically, some of these cities have the highest cost of living – thus driving the perception among HENRYs that they don’t have enough wealth to purchase a luxury property at the moment.

“NYC is the best example of this conflict,” explains Chesterfield.

“A New Yorker could be earning $750,000 a year. They enjoy a certain kind of lifestyle where they are going out and having fun with their friends every night or going on expensive vacations.

They’re spending money freely and enjoying their financial success.

Yet they feel like they can’t afford to buy the kind of property they want in the city.”

WHAT INDUSTRIES DO THEY WORK IN?

A sizable portion of HENRYs are gold-collar professionals or C-level executives in consumer services and banking, according to Wealth-X. The technology sector is also less influential than one might have previously thought.

As more tech companies entered the fray as highincome employers, the average age of HENRYS has dropped considerably over the last few years. “But when you look at the $1 million income level,” says Shaban, “you will see that technology represents a smaller percentage. It’s because tech is a comparatively young industry.”

Tech’s biggest companies may have become famous for paying high salaries to tech professionals over the last 10 years, but compared to established industries, the tech sector is still establishing itself. “Banking and finance still tops the charts,” says Shaban.

Further impacting the Wealth-X findings is what they consider “income.” The firm uses taxable income in its analysis – not just from annual salaries, but also from dividends, rental income, etc. This is likely the reason why banking and finance suddenly jumps to the top of the list when the income level increases to $1 million+. “Banking and finance mostly consist of high-income salaried people, but it also includes people who are starting their own funds,” adds Shaban.

WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN FOR HENRYS TO JUMP INTO THE LUXURY PROPERTY MARKET?

First, HENRYs likely need to reach a certain life stage, such as marriage or starting a family. Several recent studies have shown that young people are delaying these capstone events. According to Pew Research Center3 analysis of Census Bureau data, the share of U.S. adults who are married by age 21 shrunk from about onethird in 1980 to 6% in 2021. The share who married by 25 dropped from nearly two-thirds to 22%. It’s true for older millennials, too. The same 2021 analysis found that 25% of 40-year-olds in the United States had never been married, a significant increase from 20% in 2010.

They also need to achieve an optimum level of wealth in their city of choice.

Current housing market dynamics, economic factors such as inflation, and psychological roadblocks may also need to shift to alter their comfort level with such a large luxury investment.

Chesterfield believes many will eventually convert to first-time luxury homebuyers in the next few years “when they are ready” and “once their lives have stabilized,” either from starting a family or perhaps when their business has stabilized, if they are a business owner or entrepreneur.

“We know that the population of high-income earners is increasing by 13% annually across the United States,” says Chesterfield. “Because of that, we know that the number who will convert to buying luxury homes in next few years will also increase.” Adds Shaban: “When a group’s growth rate is above 10%, they will likely move to a new wealth group.”

WHERE WILL THEY BUY?

When they do eventually decide to make a major property purchase, don’t expect the same level of cross-market migrations that occurred during the height of the pandemic. “A lot of these people still need to be in the office,” says Shaban, “so they tend to be more ‘sticky’ – a bit more locked into their locations.”

If work-from-home was widely embraced during the pandemic, many employers such as Goldman Sachs, Amazon and Google have begun issuing return-to-office mandates – even if it’s just for a few days per week. A survey of 1,000 company leaders by Resume Builder4 also found that 90% of companies planned to implement return-to-office policies by the end of 2024.

“Once they attain their wealth and have more capital control, they may decide to move out of the area,” stipulates Chesterfield. “But while they are high income earners, they are certainly a bit more constrained.”

PREPARING FOR THE FUTURE

“For HENRYs, luxury is a state of mind, not a price point or brand,” wrote Pamela N. Danziger, founder of Unity Marketing5. Authenticity, personalization and craftsmanship, inclusivity, a commitment to doing the right thing, sustainability and unique experiences are all part of their modern luxury mystique.

For them, luxury is a lifestyle – their lifestyle according to their individual tastes and they want a home that’s suited to that individual lifestyle. This concept could open the door for a broader definition of what luxury means in terms of homes on the market – if it no longer only refers to the price tag.

hen it comes to attracting the world’s

Affluent international buyers have not cooled on American real estate. Why the global elite still view U.S. luxury property as a means of asset diversification and investment.

42 | Homes & Estates

wealthiest individuals to invest in real estate, America’s still got it.

According to data compiled by Wealth-X, an Altrata Company, and U.K.-based Barton Consulting exclusively for the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® program, the number of international buyers purchasing real estate in the top 5% of the market saw an estimated growth of 25% in 2023 compared to 2022.1 Except you wouldn’t know it from the media headlines over the last six months. Mansion Global2 declared in August 2023: “A Dwindling Number of Foreign Home Buyers Are Shopping on U.S. Soil.” Forbes3 went even further in September 2023: “Foreign Buyers Are Finally Cooling on America’s Overheated Housing Market.”

The reason? These media outlets were reporting the latest findings4 from the National Association of REALTORS (NAR), which found that international buyers bought some 84,600 existing homes for $53.3 billion across the U.S. in the year between April 2022 and March 2023, a drop of 14.2% and 9.6% respectively from the 12 months prior and the lowest metric since the association began tracking the data in 2009. However, these NAR figures analyzed

See page 57 for a full list of resources.

the purchase of homes by foreign buyers across ALL market segments in the U.S. – not the luxury home segment.

Wealth-X analyzed the purchase of homes by price in the top 5% of the U.S. market and the net worth wealth of purchasers (buyers with a net worth of over $5 million). This tells a very different story.

As Maeen Shaban, director of research and data analytics at Wealth-X, points out, “Home purchasing by international buyers was disrupted in the overall housing market due to low inventory, the rising cost of homes in the U.S. and the current exchange rate. For the affluent, these impacts become less significant as an individual’s wealth increases.” Affluent international buyers are also less impacted by rising mortgage rates as they typically pay cash for real estate.

Continues Shaban: “When you adjust the parameters to account for wealth, you see the average home price rise from about $1.1 million (for the top 10%) to about $1.9 million (for the top 5%), which is a truer threshold for ‘luxury’ currently in the U.S. This bears out when we compared the data for the top 5% against the top 10% of the market. From January 2023 to December 2023, we can see a slight decline in sales compared to 2022, albeit at a much lower rate 3.6%. That’s a marked difference from the double-digit growth seen from the top 5% group.”

These results are on a sliding scale because as wealth increases, due to their smaller numbers, proportionately the affluent buy a greater quantity of luxury properties.

The bottom line: international high-net-worth individuals continue to see the value of investing in the U.S.

“The greater their wealth is, the more likely they are to invest in luxury real estate, helped, in part, by the fact that many of them are likely to already have funds in U.S. dollars,” says Winston Chesterfield, founder of U.K.-based Barton Consulting. “Coupled with that, the U.S. has some of the friendliest real estate policies for overseas purchasers, an open borders policy for doing business and compared to real estate prices in other global destinations like Singapore and Switzerland, relatively affordable housing. The U.S. is one of the best places to invest, if not the best place.”

DIFFERENT BUYING PSYCHOLOGIES

Location variances between the top 5% and the top 10% of the market often boil down to different needs among wealth groups.

As Chesterfield explains, “Lower income international buyers in the U.S. are typically looking for permanent relocation, and therefore are looking for a forever home.” NAR’s reporting5 appears to bolster this theory, which found that international buyers “tend to purchase property in suburban areas, garnering 45% of [international] buyer purchases.”

In contrast, “global high-net-worth individuals tend to own properties for shorter periods of time, about 5 to 7 years,” says Chesterfield. “The world is their home, and they are more international in mindset. They also tend to make property portfolio decisions based on their business and lifestyle at the moment, but also for investment reasons.”

For these reasons, high-net-worth individuals tend to be much more fluid. “The question of ‘where’ to purchase property is a very different proposition for high-net-worth individuals because they can simply move onto another property or location if they don’t like their current one,” says Chesterfield. *Buyers with $5m+ in net worth, NOT based in the U.S. and purchasing in Top 5% or 10% of the market

TOP INTERNATIONAL BUYERS

China, Canada and the United Kingdom rank high among both the top 10% and top 5% categories, as buyers from these countries continue to demonstrate their affinity for U.S. real estate.

Although NAR reported an uptick in the numbers of Chinese buyers buying U.S. real estate from April 2022 to March 2023 and a return to pre-pandemic levels, Wealth-X found that the United Kingdom leads when it comes to buyers purchasing at the very top of the market. Canada took second and China ranked third.

Interestingly, China leads as the No. 1 country of origin among international buyers in the top 10% of the market but drops to No. 3 in the top 5%. Why the shift? A clue could be in the NAR report: 38% of Chinese buyers intended to their purchase to be for vacation or rental use and 30% said they intended to use it for a primary residence. These types of properties, many of which are condominiums and townhomes, tend to be lower-priced.

Canada remained consistent with No. 2 positions in both the top 10% and top 5% categories. Meanwhile, the U.K. dropped to No. 5 in the top 10% segment while emerging markets such as Mexico and India entered the picture. In the top 5%, Hong Kong and Switzerland featured prominently. Hong Kong and Geneva, Switzerland regularly rank among the world’s most expensive cities for real estate. With the exception of New York City, real estate in most U.S. metros is comparatively more affordable than these locations.

U.S. SUPERSTAR CITIES

When it comes to luxury real estate, which U.S. cities are the most favored locales for the global elite? Not surprisingly, they tend to congregate in these major cities: • • • • •

New York Los Angeles Miami San Francisco Washington, D.C.

Wealth-X estimates that in New York alone, there were 715 home purchases made by international buyers in 2023. Specifically, Manhattan leads the list of cities in which a wealthy individual simply must own property if they wish to cement their status among the world’s wealthy elite. Coastal cities Los Angeles and Miami follow.

Explains Chesterfield: “While we have seen some change in where the international affluent buyers are purchasing, typically it has stayed within the more recognized markets. International investors typically buy in the cities that they are most familiar with – the New York’s, the L.A’s, and the

“International investors typically buy in the cities that they are most familiar with... locations based on recommendations or where they consider to be in the heart of the action.”

Miami’s. They choose locations based on recommendations from friends, family, work colleagues or where they consider to be in the heart of the action.”

This is especially true when Wealth-X looked at the top 5% of the market. Those who are purchasing at this level may already have connections in these major luxury epicenters – whether it’s business, personal or otherwise.

“Affluent individuals, in general, have investment accounts that work in U.S. dollars or have stocks and bonds in U.S. dollars as part of their investment mix,” says Chesterfield. “A lot of them have a dedicated USD bank account. These are not financially naive people.

They have sophisticated investment portfolios and are very diversified.

A lot of them will deal internationally using the currency of the U.S., which not only mitigates the constraints of exchange rates but provides them direct access to USD.” Jade Mills, a top Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialist in Beverly Hills, has observed that 2023 international buyers tended to be from Asia or Europe: “Globally famous luxury enclaves, like Beverly Hills or Bel Air, are highly coveted by Chinese buyers who tend to regard Southern California as more stable than China for investment. Living near prestigious schools is important to them, and gated communities are also highly sought after.”

In the Miami area, international buyer interest from Chile and Mexico continued unabated in 2023. “We are seeing more interest now that pandemic-related travel bans are lifted and the consumer has more confidence that they can use a property they buy,” notes Jill Hertzberg of The Jills Zeder Group, a leading team of Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialists based in Miami and Coral Gables.

“We have seen an uptick from both of these areas as well as from Brazil and Portugal,” adds her partner, Jill Eber. “Central and South America have always had an interest in Florida due to its proximity and the many economic ventures connected to South Florida being a gateway to many countries. The ebb and flow are sometimes connected to business interests and sometimes connected to capital flight due to political or economic changes in a specific Latin American country.”

Safety continues to be a key factor for these buyers, as they tend to seek out property in gated or gate-guarded communities. Says ColdwellBankerLuxury.com | 45

Hertzberg: “It takes them a while to appreciate the relative safety we enjoy here in South Florida.”

Both Hertzberg and Eber expect an increase in international buyer interest for the Miami market in 2024 as borders open up: “The continued value of Miami real estate is attractive to high-networth domestic buyers as well as to international buyers. Add all the other elements of lifestyle, weather, international events, and our diverse community, and it is an incredibly wonderful opportunity for investment, work, lifestyle and living.”

RISING STARS

Despite the popularity of the “Big Five,” there are other destinations that international buyers had their eyes on in 2023, especially when Wealth-X expanded its market analysis to the top 10% of the market. These “rising star” cities included: • • • • •

Cleveland, OH Greenville, SC Phoenix, AZ Atlanta, GA Philadelphia, PA

See page 57 for a full list of resources.

Relocations to these cities are typically dictated by individual business opportunities, family ties to a particular community or better investment returns due to a lower cost of living. Take Cleveland, Ohio, for instance: its luxury home prices starting from about $500,000 to $750,000 while also offering high-end shopping districts, a thriving food scene, live arts and entertainment events, universally acclaimed healthcare centers, plus business opportunities created by Fortune 500 companies6 – making it attractive to buyers from the U.K. Another example is Greenville, SC. Nestled in the foothills of South Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, Greenville ranked among the top 10 hottest real estate markets for 2023, according to NAR7, and saw its population soar during the pandemic buying boom – likely due to its low tax rates, housing affordability (it’s about 22.7%8 less expensive than New York), welcoming business climate and a walkable downtown with eclectic culinary offerings. No wonder Canadian buyers sought out this unique Southern town, along with Arizona’s beloved snowbird haven, Phoenix.

Indian buyers seem to be drawn to Pennsylvania, both the Philly area and State College-Dubois area, home to Penn State. Another emerging luxury hotspot is Atlanta, which has seen an explosion of growth in the last several years as the “Hollywood of the South” and an influx of interest from Chinese buyers. Luxury home prices have shot up with the city’s increasingly global reputation; an entry-level luxury home in Buckhead, the city’s toniest neighborhood, will cost you about $1 million.

Some real estate agents in Atlanta have reported that they have begun to see international buyers coming from China, but also Nigeria and Italy.

“Relocations to these cities are typically dictated by individual business opportunities, family ties to a particular community or better investment returns due to a lower cost of living.”

“Some investors that have been priced out of the Miami market are now looking into the Atlanta market, where luxury properties tend to be priced significantly lower,” notes Debra Johnston, a luxury property specialist in Atlanta. “Generally speaking, they are looking for prime locations in and around Buckhead, including Tuxedo Park and Chastain Park, and which have larger lots and are in excellent condition.”

WHAT TO EXPECT IN 2024

While the traditional market may continue to be challenged, industry insiders expect that affluent international interest will ramp up in 2024.

Even NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun9 struck an optimistic tone in the 2023 report, 2023 International Transactions in U.S. Residential Real Estate10: “Recovering international travel following the end of the pandemic will bring more foreign transactions in the coming months and years.”

AI

Revolution With its immense availability of data, artificial intelligence has the power to be as disruptive to luxury real estate as the internet was decades ago.

Here’s how.

The global AI market is set to grow up to 54% every single year.2

ou know when you have Bill Gates touting a technology as “revolutionary,” it’s

time to pay attention. “The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the microprocessor, the personal computer, the internet, and the mobile phone,” the tech billionaire and investor wrote on his blog, GatesNotes1, last March.

Many AI experts, including Matt Britton, also liken AI’s disruptive potential to the internet.

“The internet really changed the way we consumed information,” says Britton, founder and CEO of Suzy, who presented at the 2023 Coldwell Banker® Gen Blue Experience. “AI is A RT I F IC I A L I N T E L L IG E NC E M A R K E T SI Z E $BN USD going to have an equal or even greater impact on our lives than the internet, but it’s going to happen a lot faster.”

Fast-forward to 2020, and 97% of homebuyers said they used the internet in their home search. Now that the dawn of AI has arrived, where will the real estate industry be in another 20 years?

THE LITTLE BOT THAT COULD

It was a little over a year ago that OpenAI’s ChatGPT first burst onto the scene. Of the hundreds of millions4 who have downloaded ChatGPT, real estate agents started experimenting with the technology for their businesses, impressed with the chatbot’s writing ability, proficiency at complex tasks and ease of use. Conversations around generative AI, and its potential to fundamentally change the way we buy, sell and interact with property, have heated up ever since.

So, how will generative AI reshape the future of real estate?

We posed the question to ChatGPT, naturally. Within seconds, we received a 246-word listicle, cataloging seven potential areas in the real estate business that should brace for impact:

CUSTOMER SUPPORT MARKET ANALYSIS VIRTUAL PROPERTY TOURS AUTOMATED DOCUMENT PROCESSING PERSONALIZED PROPERTY RECOMMENDATIONS LANGUAGE TRANSLATION PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS

“However,” our chatbot stipulated at the end, “it’s essential to note that while AI can be a valuable tool, it won’t replace the need for human expertise and personal relationships in the real estate industry. It can enhance efficiency and provide data-driven insights, but the human touch remains crucial in areas like negotiation and understanding clients’ unique needs.”

For those professionals working at the highest echelons of real estate, generative AI should be viewed as a way to enhance the client experience. Acknowledges Michael Altneu, vice president of the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® program: “If anything, I see generative AI enriching the relationship between the agent and client by streamlining processes and personalizing the luxury real estate experience even more than it is now.”

We explore six key aspects of the real estate experience where AI’s impact will most likely be felt over the next few years.

1. EFFICIENCIES WILL CREATE A MORE FLUID REAL ESTATE MARKET “AI will not just improve real estate operations,” says Britton. “It’s going to change the very nature of the industry, leading to more transparency, efficiency, and convenience.”

AI has the power to make the buying and selling process a lot more efficient for consumers on both sides of the transaction due to the vast amounts of data it can analyze in seconds. With machine learning, agents will be able to identify real-time trends and eventually generate valuation models for their clients. They could analyze markets and market opportunities by ZIP code or even block by block, based on data available in the AI model.

Paperwork will be diminished, and many of the routine administrative tasks associated with property buying, selling or leasing have an opportunity to become much more streamlined with AI-powered tools. This will free up time for real estate professionals to focus on more critical issues.

“Real estate transactions are extremely complex, and by nature, not very fast,” says Britton. “Escrows and mortgage transactions

See page 57 for a full list of resources.

ColdwellBankerLuxury.com | 49

will have shortened schedules because AI can disseminate underwriting data much more quickly – although regulations could slow this down in the future.

Buying and selling real estate could become a much more fast-moving and fluid business with AI.” 2. AUGMENTED REALITY As our ChatGPT pointed out, “AI can create immersive virtual property tours, allowing potential buyers to explore properties from the comfort of their homes.”

The human, Britton, agrees: “Virtual property tours can drastically reduce the time and cost associated with property visits and allow buyers to ask basic questions of AI without disturbing the seller.”

Britton is able to see a future scenario where buyers can get most of their property questions answered virtually right up until the point that they are ready to put an offer on the table. However, real estate insiders caution that AI models can sometimes generate inaccurate property information. As Altneu points out: “AI doesn’t always have the right square footage or property details that a human can provide. It’s still important that buyers seek out a real estate professional who can verify details with the MLS and other data sources.”

Another area that will see rapid improvement with AI? Listing photos.

Examples of AI-enhanced photo retouching tools have already sprouted up.

One example is Photoshop’s AI-powered tool, Generative Fill5, which allows photograph owners to perform powerful edits with just a single click.

3. SELLERS WILL GET MORE STRATEGIC MARKET EVALUATIONS AND BETTER MARKETING “AI could impact affluent sellers of real estate by providing more accurate property valuations, personalizing marketing strategies and using predictive analytics to anticipate market trends,” says Britton. “This will help sellers make informed decisions about when to list their home and optimize a sales strategy with their agent.”

Property valuations have typically been a time-consuming undertaking, relying on manual data collection and analysis for historical sales data, property

features, location data, and market trends. AI tools can streamline all of this by producing valuation information that can more readily be confirmed by the property owner or their agent. “In the future, homes will also become better inventoried,” predicts Britton. “Serial numbers and dates of maintenance will help buyers understand more about the home and also help sellers price their home more effectively, especially if some features are included in the price but aren’t evaluated properly.”

Additionally, sellers will benefit from personalized property marketing. “AI algorithms can analyze consumer behavior, preferences, and interaction data to predict who the most likely potential buyer will be, and create an optimized marketing strategy that will resonate with that target buyer,” says Britton. But what will the agent do? “AI will write the strategy, and humans will manage, control it, and audit it.”

4. BUYERS WILL GET A MORE PERSONALIZED SEARCH EXPERIENCE AI could streamline the property search process for buyers by generating customized property recommendations based on the buyer’s unique preferences, budget, and lifestyle. Britton calls AI “a personal sidekick” for the buyer. “It’s going to know all about you… your personal income, how long your commute is, what neighborhoods you like, what schools you want your children to attend, where you shop, etc.” he says. “Ultimately, property searches can be done much more accurately.”

For international buyers, AI can help bridge language barriers by providing instant translations and assistance ­– an especially helpful tool in the luxury real estate space, which tends to attract a worldwide buyer pool.

AI is also expected to predict which properties are more likely to appreciate in value or which locations are emerging as real estate hotspots.

5. REAL ESTATE SERVICE AT THE CLIENT’S BECK AND CALL According to our ChatGPT, “real estate firms can use AI for 24/7 client

support for answering common questions, providing property details, or even scheduling property tours.” At higher price points, this may factor in less as personal interactions are more highly valued – but AI could provide an important pre-screening function.

AI can also serve as a personal assistant to luxury real estate professionals. For instance, high-performing real estate professionals who send personalized gifts to their clients could outsource this task to AI. An AI tool could build individualized profiles for each client based on their passions, hobbies and interests using data from the public domain or private notes, develop gift options and even write personalized notes to accompany the gift. However, agents will want to be sure that the notes sound as if they are personalized from them.

6. MORE OPTIMIZED CONSUMER OUTCOMES AI will also be helpful in negotiating optimal deals for both buyers and sellers.

AI negotiation support systems can assist agents by analyzing vast amounts of data, predicting potential outcomes and suggesting outcomes.

In fact, the entire efficiency and effectiveness of the real estate transaction will be impacted by AI automations. In a typical real estate deal, many repetitive, detail-focused tasks pass through various parties such as lenders, agents, underwriters and stakeholders. Automation will streamline these timeconsuming processes and eliminate busy work. “The closing process is going to change for both buyers and sellers,” says Britton.

POTENTIAL PITFALLS AND LIMITATIONS

AI could bring profound changes to luxury real estate. Still, its promise has not been fully realized. Like with any new technology, there are potential pitfalls. Privacy issues and data breaches need to be addressed. Confirmation of the accuracy of data produced by the AI model is a must by the user. Questions loom about the loss of human touch and emotional connection. Uneven adoption of the technology and lack of education could also pose future problems.

“There is a danger in trusting the technology too much,” warns Britton.

“Deep fakes could result in properties being misrepresented. Widespread confusion about AI can also increase the risk for fraud, especially when it comes

to sharing financial information during a real estate transaction.”

The technology has its limitations too. While property evaluations could conceivably become more data-driven with AI, they could also skew a property’s true market value if it doesn’t accurately take into account specific details of the property, the emotional aspects or unique features of a home in the way a human can. This could be problematic at higher real estate price points, where homes tend to be bespoke and comps can be few-and-far-between.

AI also doesn’t understand the nuances of human behavior. “AI can’t replicate human creativity and it can’t solve a problem that it’s not familiar with,” says Britton. “It needs constant training, and even then, it has limits when compared to the human brain.”

Then there are the opportunity costs. The software itself can cost thousands of dollars. There is the investment of time to train a machine and investment by the user to confirm accuracy of information before sharing AI generated content.

And of course, the potential loss of revenue if jobs are eventually replaced by AI. FOLLOWING THE CONSUMER’S LEAD

Despite the risks and fears of artificial intelligence, the future of real estate will not be driven by the titans of industry – but by consumers, according to Britton.

“It’s all about the end user,” he says, comparing future disruptions of real estate to what happened to the music industry after the rise of the internet, social media and streaming services. “Musicians wanted to create full albums [as the ultimate expression of their artistry and craft],” he says, “but it turns out that consumers just wanted to download singles.”

He adds: “Looking back through history, we see that every new technology that has been successful has ultimately been responsible for making life easier, saving time and money,” he says, pointing to companies like Amazon, Uber, and Apple. “The integration of AI will impact everyone because it has the power to provide these benefits both globally and at all levels of industry.”

Ok, but does ChatGPT agree?

An enthusiastic “Absolutely!” is the answer, followed by: “While industry players are essential, they must adapt to meet the evolving needs of empowered consumers.”

Ready for

Lift Off Are the stars finally aligning for a smart home future?

he story of the smart home started

with a tantalizing dream: an intelligent home that responds to your every command and automates everyday tasks through the “The Internet of Things” (IoT).

A cohort of technophiles and high-net-worth homeowners became smart home early adopters. They were among the first to invest in custom whole-home smart systems with professional installations from companies such as Crestron, Control4, and Savant. They also were more likely to purchase newer properties with smart home systems already integrated, particularly if it was a second or third property for them and they needed to monitor it remotely.

As Tracy Allen, a Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® Property Specialist in Honolulu, explains: “For many of my clients, a ‘dream home’ is one that thinks for you at the end of a long day. It offers an array of smart features, from the rise of the lights that greet you and your favorite song playing as you walk through the door, to the shades drawn and pocketing walls of glass all harmoniously coming to life.”

But the reality is that most homeowners have been slower to realize the dream of a home that “thinks for you.” As Martin Bäckman, principal analyst at Swedish IoT analyst firm, Berg Insight, explains it: “A sizable percentage of people now own smart home products, but technological fragmentation and lack of interoperability prevent widespread adoption.”

The ground is starting to shift. New technological innovations are on the way. Consumer attitudes are changing. If all of these factors align, are we finally going to see the dream of the smart home take off?

MOVING TOWARD MASS ADOPTION

The smart home market appears to be on the verge of moving from early adopters to mass adopters. A 2023 report by Grand View Research, Inc.1 estimated the value of the global smart home automation market to be $444.98 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of 27.3% from 2023 to 2030. According to a 2022 research report by Berg Insight2, the number of smart homes in Europe and North America was 120.5 million in 2022, with North America accounting for the lion’s share of the market with 39.2% of all households (or 57.5 million homes). By 2027, Berg Insight estimates that about 88.1 million homes in North America will be smart, or 58% of all North American households. Another global data intelligence platform, Statista3, projected that the smart home market worldwide would generate a revenue of $134.8 billion USD in 2023 and an expected annual growth rate of 11.43% (CAGR 2023-2028), resulting in a projected market volume of $231.6 billion USD by 2028.

Meanwhile, household penetration, was predicted to be 16.4% in 2023

and is expected to increase to 33.2% by 2028.

REASONS FOR PREDICTED GROWTH

Why is the smart home market predicted to expand over the next several years?

1. NEW STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGIES Several recent developments, including company partnership collaborations and advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and speech recognition among others, are expected to drive growth.

The launch of Matter (formerly “Connected Home over IP” or “CHIP”), a connectivity standard, inspired hope that some of the interoperability issues associated with smart home devices would be alleviated. Supported by over 200 companies including Amazon, Apple, Google, and Samsung, Matter guarantees seamless communication across all devices, irrespective of the ecosystem they inhabit. Most companies with Matter-compatible devices said they would start shipping in 2023. “So far, the standard has not really lived up to its hype,” notes Bäckman. “There have been several delays, and there are still some major things that need to be resolved. It’s tricky

because you want to get every company onboard, but then every added company brings additional complexity.”

Even if Matter-compatible gadgets have limited impact, many experts believe generative AI has the potential to turn the smart home category into a rocket ship. AI-enhanced voice control could remove the complexity it takes to operate smart home systems. AI also has the ability to understand our habits, analyze the large amount of data generated by our homes’ devices, feed that data into a smart home control system and become predictive in helping us complete tasks. This humanlike awareness and decision-making ability would allow our smart homes to deliver “a much more personalized, intelligencedriven user experience,” says consumer tech trend expert Matt Britton, founder and CEO of Suzy.

A research paper published in 2023 by tech research and consulting firm Gartner4 supports Britton’s view that generative AI has the potential to significantly improve user experiences across six key domains in the home: natural humanmachine interactions, home virtual assistants, energy or utility management, home automation, intelligent security and urgent issue settling.

2. THE EMBRACE OF OLDER GENERATIONS Younger generations of consumers are thought to be leading the smart home revolution. After all, the assumption goes, they’ve grown up with digital technology.

But in a 2023 poll commissioned by Google Nest and conducted by OnePoll, the fastest adopters of smart home tech were actually baby boomers. Meanwhile, the slowest adopters were Gen Z. Older generations also could stand to benefit the most from smart home technology. This is significant given the sheer size of the baby boomer population.

According to research from the World Health Organization6, the proportion of the world’s population over 60 will nearly double from 12% to 22% between 2015 and 2050. As life expectancy rises and more seniors opt to age in place, smart home technology could significantly enhance in-home safety and care and minimize the emotional upheaval of moving to an outside care home.

66% of baby boomers started using their smart home devices daily “straight away.”

46% of Gen Zers took at least 4 days to get acclimated to their smart home devices .5 3. LIFESTYLE AND BEHAVIORAL CHANGES People are spending more time at home – and because of that, they want their homes to do more for them. According to a 2022 Gallup Poll, there are 70 54 | Homes & Estates

million U.S. workers (that’s 56% of the full-time workforce) who can work remotely. Of this group, half have opted for a hybrid life (mixing remote with on-site) and 30% go all-in on remote. That leaves just 20% entirely on-site.

Other factors, such as rising interest rates and inflation, will keep some people locked into their homes for longer, making them more likely to upgrade their existing home rather than trade-up to more expensive properties in the immediate future. Consumers who are feeling a financial pinch might look to smart home technology in an effort to curb their energy consumption and lower their energy bills.

4. TACKLING CLIMATE CHANGE Smart homes could help address the effects of climate change by reducing the strain on energy grids and lowering household emissions. Per a major climate report by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)7: “Mitigation can mean using new technologies and renewable energies, making older equipment more energy efficient, or changing management practices or consumer behavior.”

Smart home technologies can automatically adjust to a home’s changing energy needs and detect inefficiencies so electricity, water and gas waste can be minimized. (Not to mention, it helps lower energy bills.) The impact in reducing household emissions could be significant, if implemented, en masse.

WHICH SMART HOME CATEGORIES WILL DRIVE GROWTH

Backman thinks the categories that offer the most value to consumers are best set up for future growth. For instance, “being able to remotely control the heating/cooling of a home via a smartphone is generally seen as a more valuable feature than having a connected dishwasher that sends you a push notification when finished,” he notes. “Connected solutions that help reduce costs, increase safety and security are much more likely to be adopted than products that just add a little bit of convenience.”

See page 57 for a full list of resources.

Even affluent homeowners tend to look for systems that are useful, or add value to their lives, rather than delivering the “wow” factor. In a 2023 survey of over 600 Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® Property Specialists, for example, home automation systems were named as the No. 1 tech amenity that had the most perceived value to high-net-worth buyers. Energy-efficient appliances were rated second in perceived value, followed by security systems and EV charging stations. Notice the “flashier” tech features such as theater systems, audio systems or color-changing lighting systems ranked lower in priority – or not at all.

“Ease of use – that’s the smart home trend right now,” says Danny Hertzberg, a Luxury Property Specialist who works with affluent clients in the Miami area. “People have tried complicated whole-house smart systems, and with few advancements happening in the space over the last few years, they’ve gone back to wanting simplified systems that control a few key areas of their home – a one-touch button that turns lights off and on, the ability to control speakers from their phones or voice control that adjusts their thermostat. They don’t want to call the AV guy every time something isn’t working. But a smart home with integrated machine learning that anticipates their needs, learns their habits, and works for them? That’s the holy grail of smart home technology.

It’s coming, but it’s not here yet.”

Health monitoring applications are an emerging smart home category that could also be a boon for the industry in the near future.

THE FUTURE OF SMART HOMES

Innovations in AI will continue to push the anatomy of the home forward, setting higher standards for how we want to live and what we want our homes to do. Eventually, our homes will be one-of-a-kind and intelligent.

They will help us make decisions and help us lead safer, healthier, more comfortable, more productive lives. The early adopters are already living the first iteration of this dream right now.

But even if the problems of operability and interoperability are solved in the next few years, concerns still arise about misuse. For instance, what are the unintended consequences of a smart home that’s constantly monitored and serviced?

Are there data privacy and security concerns that may affect consumer desire? How these potential challenges are resolved will determine the shape of smart-home innovation in the future.

All of the pieces of the smart-home puzzle appear to be materializing – the infrastructure, the technology, the intelligence, the consumer will, and the shifting expectations of what a home can do for us. The question now is whether we can finally put all of these pieces together and see if it unlocks the door to a future we want to live.

Methodology The Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® program collaborated with Censuswide, the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, Wealth-X, an Altrata Company in conjunction with Barton Consultancy, and Matt Britton Ventures, LLC to provide insights into wealth, real estate, property investment, luxury spending preferences, and emerging trends in technology.

Censuswide Research conducted by Censuswide between November 27, 2023, and December 11, 2023. The survey reached 1,053 U.S. consumers aged 18+ with a household income of $1M+, or who have bought a home in the U.S. worth $1M+ or are planning to purchase a home in the near future worth $1M+. Censuswide abides by and employs members of the Market Research Society, which is based on ESOMAR guidelines and principles.

Institute for Luxury Home Marketing For The Trend Report 2024, the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing analyzed the data for the top 10% of 130 U.S. markets. Data contained is from January 1, 2022, to November 30, 2023 and has been computed by the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing’s data research partner and shared with Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® and based on information attained both privately and publicly. The Top 10% is defined as a property in the Top 10% of any given market. These homes (in terms of inventory, solds or list prices), match or exceed the 90th percentile sold price for homes sold on a monthly basis from January 1, 2019, to November 30, 2023. Closed sales reported later than the monthly analysis period were not included. Property-specific sales records were standardized, inaccurate sale prices were corrected when necessary and all duplicate records were manually excluded. As a result, statistics available via the source data providers may not correlate to this analysis.

Data is then represented both monthly and yearly throughout the report, using medians, averages, totals, percentages, and ratios. However, unless otherwise specified, statistics typically presented in this report represent both the monthly median and the median of monthly medians of the respective data. Market Status is an analysis of Sales Ratio and represents market speed and market type: where the sales ratio is 15% or less, it is a buyer’s market. If it is greater than 15% and less than 21% it is a balanced market. Over 21% it is a seller’s market. If greater than 100%, MLS data reported previous month’s sales exceeded remaining inventory pulled at the end of the month.

Wealth-X, an Altrata Company This report presents data on the wealthy from Wealth-X’s latest comprehensive update to their proprietary Wealth and Investable Assets Model, which gauges the size and combined wealth of the population with personal wealth of $1M+. The model produces statistically significant estimates for total private wealth and estimates the size of the population by level of wealth and investable assets for the world, and for each of the top 70 economies and 200 cities. Wealth-X’s model is unique in the sense that the Wealth-X Database enables them to construct wealth distribution patterns using real, rather than assumed wealth distributions, making the model much more reliable.

Wealth-X updates the model’s macroeconomic inputs on a regular basis and recently completed a comprehensive once-in-five-years update of the model. This entailed updating historic macroeconomic and country-specific indicators, and wealth distribution curves. This was undertaken, firstly, to ensure that we have gauged correctly the relationships between the indicators that the model is using; and secondly (although no less importantly) in light of the fact that the Wealth-X Database has grown significantly over the past five years.
