Romance and flowers are fine and dandy for Valentine’s Day, but real estate is what really sets our hearts aflutter. What better way to celebrate love than to bask in the glory of some seriously spectacular DFW luxury listings?
I’ve found three properties that are positively swoon-worthy, all represented by Ebby Halliday Realtors, one of the largest and most-admired privately owned residential real estate firms in the country.
It’s an excellent time and place for luxury properties like these, as North America continues to be home for the majority of wealthy consumers in the world (61 percent or nearly one million households), according to research from Luxury Portfolio International. Unlike the growth stagnation experienced in Europe, the North American wealthy population is growing fast, at 13 percent year-over-year. Additionally, individuals with a net worth over $10 million has grown 146 percent since 2010 and 13 percent since 2015 to 979,886.
These three DFW luxury listings are exactly what a high-net-worth individual might be looking for in DFW, which is one of the hottest markets in the nation. Let’s take a look!
