Big D’s affordability and low(ish) cost of living attract thousands of new residents each year, but for those of us who have already worn in our boots on the Dallas streets, we know that the city has plenty of high-dollar listings.
A recent Texas Realtors report says that in 2024, the Lone Star State saw more than 12,000 homes sell for more than $1 million. About 40% of them sold in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington region, more than any major metropolitan area in the state.
The most expensive home in Dallas has bounced on and off the market for the last six years. Initially listed in 2019 for $38,500,000, it was reposted in February for $64,000,000 after several price changes and listing removals. If you’re considering making an offer on the palatial home, you should know that the property tax on the estate last year was $684,000, which is more than double the average cost of a home in Dallas.
“The estate was built in 1938 for Count Pio Crespi, a wealthy Italian cotton baron who came to Texas with his eyes on expanding the family business,” reported The Dallas Morning News. “Designed by Swiss architect Maurice Fatio, the Preston Hollow home has hosted celebrities, presidents and dignitaries. It’s had no shortage of famous owners.”
Maybe you’re not in the market or proper tax bracket for a pricey abode? That doesn’t mean you don't enjoy scrolling through the high-end listings on Zillow and other real estate websites like we do.
