Zuckerberg Buys $170 Million Miami Mansion, Setting County Record as Luxury Sales Jump 22%

Summary
$170 million bought Mark Zuckerberg a mansion under construction on Indian Creek in March, the priciest home ever sold in Miami-Dade County.
Miami’s luxury boom helps explain the record: first-quarter 2026 sales of homes above $1 million rose 22% year over year, including nearly 35% growth for properties priced from $3 million to $10 million.
Florida’s no state income tax, Miami’s growing finance and tech base, and scarce waterfront supply have drawn billionaires and firms south, pushing the local luxury-home threshold to about $4.1 million from $3.2 million a year earlier.
The surge is reshaping the market beyond one deal: Miami ended 2025 with 10,591 listings above $1 million, topping New York’s 10,176 for the first time.
That wealth influx is also straining affordability, with rising prices and insurance costs making Miami harder for middle-income residents even though New York remains costlier overall.
