A Bel Air home was just listed for $350 million making it the most expensive listing in the U.S. According to Global Mansion, Chartwell, a 1930’s chateau that belongs the family of the late billionaire Jerry Perenchio, went on the market August 7 as the highest price listing in the nation.
Other nine-digit listings include Opus, a Beverly Hills spec home listed for $100 million. The developer, Nile Niami plans to unveil another megamansion next year that will be listed at $500 million. Formula One heiress Petra Stunt is selling her home in Holmby Hills for $200 millio and the Playboy mansion sold for $100 million last year.
How do the select few luxury listing agents with homes in this price range market the one-of-a-kind mansions and find a billionaire buyer? Douglas Elliman CEO, Scott Durkin who is quite comfortable around major luxury sales was asked about selling megamansions. Durkin commented, ‘The marketing of a home of that price range requires you to completely wipe your board clean. Getting the home the most exposure you possibly can and targeting the audience, that’s really the goal. Once you’re north of nine digits, you can’t just wait for the phone to ring.’ Douglas Elliman brokered the most expensive Manhattan penthouse last year for $87.7 million as well as other nine-figure listings in New York City and the Hamptons.
