Los Angeles is synonymous with extravagance. T.V. shows document it, podcasts celebrate it, and social media amplifies it. So, it’s no surprise that L.A. is home to a large portion of the nation’s most expensive homes, with most clustered in Beverly Hills, Bel-Air, and Malibu. In fact, the most expensive home ever listed, named The One, is located in Bel-Air (it was auctioned off for a fraction of its original list price).
Even though luxury is pervasive throughout Northern and Western L.A., climate change and related insurance crises are leading some to reconsider SoCal living. Recently, these regions were ravaged by the January 2025 Los Angeles Wildfires, which destroyed thousands of homes and displaced entire communities. Even so, people continue to buy property in the areas, albeit at a much slower clip.
Here were the most expensive home sales in Los Angeles in May, according to data from Redfin.
