Palm Beach, FL – February 9, 2022 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – According to a recent report from Bloomberg discussing a report from Sotheby’s said: “The only thing that can slow the global luxury market in 2022 is … greed.” “It’s impossible to underprice a property in this environment,” says Bradley Nelson, chief marketing officer of Sotheby’s International Realty, which released its 2022 luxury outlook report on Monday. A potent combination of sky-high bonuses, accelerating intergenerational transfers of wealth, low interest rates, and the specter of inflation “makes investing in a concrete, fixed asset like real estate attractive to many as they balance their portfolios,” Nelson says. The environment is such that, no matter how low a property is listed, demand and competition will push its price to the top of the market. “We brokered a co-op sale in New York,” Nelson says. “The asking price was $40 million, and there were multiple billionaires interested in purchasing it at the same time,” he continues. “The market is a living, breathing thing, and it’s going to give you feedback when fresh, desirable inventory comes on tahe market.” “The real estate market is now being driven by hybrid work vs. remote work,” he says. Tax considerations continue to drive luxury purchasing decisions. “That’s really the headline in both the United States and internationally,” says Nelson. “You’re going to see the greatest investments continue to be in tax havens.” Active Companies in the markets today include Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VINO), Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR), Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H), Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE: HLT), MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM).
The article continued: “The lack of state income tax in Texas and Florida will help those states’ luxury markets retain their luster, he says, while tax increases in countries as disparate as Oman, Ireland, and Canada, which just instituted a 1% tax on the value of homes held by nonresident, non-Canadian owners, could adversely impact luxury prices. Finally, Nelson says the biggest impact on luxury real estate is gradually going to become apparent over the next five years: “Transacting in crypto,” he says, “is going to grow in exponential ways.”

The masterplan includes development of an additional 200 lots, ranging in size from 2.47 acres to 12 acres.
