The Trump Administration had an acute impact on the luxury market in the nation’s capital, where the average price for a luxury home rose 32.6 percent in the first quarter compared to 2016, according to Redfin.
Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin both purchased homes over $10 million. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson reportedly bought a $5.5 million home.
There are typically only a few $10 million sales in the city in any given year, so the cabinet officials’ high-dollar sales in the first quarter boosted the overall luxury price point for the entire city.
