2022 was a strange year for anyone looking to buy property in the Tampa Bay area. For the first half of the year, historically low interest rates fueled by the COVID-19 pandemic triggered a home buying frenzy.
“We saw multiple offers and homes selling over the list price,” said Jennifer Zales, an agent with Coldwell Banker Realty who sold several of the highest grossing homes of the year.
But by the third quarter, interest rates started going up. The volume of sales began to decrease and homes were no longer selling as quickly.
Even amid all the chaos, the luxury market remained strong.
“We achieved new highs in 2022 in areas like Davis Islands and along the beaches,” Zales said.
The Tampa Bay Times reviewed data from the Multiple Listing Service to find the top home sales of the year. The 10 most expensive homes brought in more than $110 million in total. Nine out of the top 10 were bought in cash.
According to a 2022 trend report from Coldwell Banker, one-third of affluent individuals surveyed believe that real estate is the safest investment one can make when compared to stocks, bonds, pensions, and cryptocurrency.
“I hear this sentiment consistently from my buyers, which is why I expect this end of the market to remain stable,” Zales said.
Take a look back at the most expensive homes sold in our region last year.
