2026 Luxury Outlook Report
Building on a strong 2025, the luxury real estate market is positioned to continue outperforming the broader market in 2026. According to the Sotheby’s International Realty® 2026 Luxury Outlook® report, scarcity, not sentiment, remains the defining force in top-tier markets.
In Jackson Hole, limited supply and well-capitalized demand drove outsized performance. Luxury transactions led overall market activity, with significant growth at the $5M+ and $10M+ levels. While inventory has risen modestly, the luxury segment remains tight, reinforcing pricing strength and long-term value.
Globally, the report highlights key macro trends shaping luxury real estate, including inherited wealth transfer, continued confidence in hard assets, selective adoption of cryptocurrency, and evolving buyer priorities around privacy, security, and multigenerational living. In supply-constrained lifestyle markets like Jackson Hole, those forces continue to translate into durable demand and strategic, long-term ownership.
