Redfin reports Florida and New York dominated February's ultra-luxury housing market with home sales over $50 million

A never-before-listed oceanfront estate in Manalapan, FL was the most expensive U.S. home sale in February 2026, pulling in over $68 million. That's according to a new report from Redfin, the real estate brokerage powered by Rocket.

Another palatial Manalapan property sold for $31.5 million. As of 2020, the ultra-exclusive town on a small barrier island near Palm Beach had a population of only 419. Many residents—like billionaire Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison and Fox News's Sean Hannity—are rich or famous.

Four more of the most expensive homes sold in February directly border—or are within a few blocks of—New York's iconic Central Park. A five-story, recently refurbished townhome pulled in top-dollar among them, going to an anonymous buyer for $55 million.

All in all, five of October's most expensive sales were in New York and three were in Florida. Only two properties west of the Mississippi made the list: a $46 million mountain retreat in Incline Village, NV and a $40 million Los Angeles mansion.

The four most expensive homes brought in $50 million or more, while all 10 sold for north of $30 million.
