Each year, the Sotheby’s International Realty Luxury Outlook report offers a global perspective on the trends shaping the high-end residential real estate market.
The 2026 edition highlights the continued strength of luxury residences worldwide, driven by sustained wealth creation, international mobility, and evolving lifestyle priorities among high-net-worth buyers.
