Philadelphia’s Most Expensive Home Sales of 2024—A Look at the Region’s Luxury Real Estate Market

Philadelphia’s Most Expensive Home Sales of 2024: Luxury Real Estate at Its Peak

The luxury housing market in the Philadelphia region thrived in 2024, with high-end properties commanding record-breaking prices. Cash buyers dominated, with 39% of luxury homes purchased in all cash by the year’s final quarter.
