房奴世界波:上海排全球豪宅价格最贵城市第七

有趣的是，尽管纽约的超豪华房产市场达成了几笔天价交易——例如叶卡特琳娜·雷波诺列夫娃（Ekaterina Rybolovleva）花8,800万美元购入中央公园西15号的顶层公寓，以及史蒂夫·韦恩（Steve Wynn）花7,000万美元购入丽思卡尔顿顶层公寓——但它只在第一太平戴维斯的榜单上名列第六，排在巴黎（第4）、莫斯科（第5）之后。2017年，纽约市每平方英尺的豪宅均价为2,700英镑（约合4,100）美元。这仍比美国2005年楼市泡沫高位时的销售价格高出了47%。

“Billionaire activity has been concentrated on high-end urban centers rather than leisure properties in the surrounding countryside or regional sunbelts, ” says Yolande Barnes, head of world research at Savills. ”This reflects a global preference for urban locations as these billionaires need to be located in cities where they can do business.”

“亿万富豪的注意力集中于市中心区域的高档住宅，而非郊外或阳光充足地带的休闲度假物业。”第一太平戴维斯全球市场研究主管约兰德·巴恩斯（Yolande Barnes）说。“这反映出全球市场对于市区住宅的偏好，因为这些亿万富豪们需要居住在市区以打理其业务。”

Despite last year’s robust billionaire buying activity — or rather, because of it –Savills believes the world’s most expensive markets could experience a slowdown in sales this year, since ultra wealthy home buyers have “nearly fully invested in key cities”. It means the frenzied sales activity that has invaded so-called safe-haven cities like New York, London and Hong Kong could begin shifting to new locations.
