🏠 The most expensive homes sold in Orlando this year

House prices have hovered near record highs for months, pushing affordability to new lows. But that hasn't stopped ultra-wealthy buyers from splashing the cash.

With deep pockets and relative insulation from today's uncertain market, many affluent buyers are leaning into real estate as a tangible investment. California, Florida, and New York lead in these ultra-luxury sales, regularly posting $20 million-plus transactions, though many other areas have seen record-setting sales.

The most expensive home sales of 2025: Nationwide

California and Florida consistently dominate the ultra-luxury market, with recent standouts like "The Manor" in Los Angeles – the state's second-largest home at 56,500 square feet. Florida's housing market has cooled significantly due to rising insurance costs and HOA fees tied to climate change, but it's still a popular place for ultra-wealthy homebuyers who typically have the means to move, rebuild, or take a loss.
