The most expensive homes sold in Beverly Hills in 2025
The two sales that defined the 90210 market, what actually drove the prices, and the tax line that quietly splits one ZIP code into two very different markets.
The headline number in Beverly Hills in 2025 was 63.1 million dollars, paid in June for a 30,500 square foot estate in the gated community of Beverly Park. The second number was 60 million dollars, paid in April for a 1930s estate in the Beverly Hills flats once leased by Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. Two sales, three months apart, both closing under their asking prices, and both telling the same story about where the top of the Beverly Hills market actually sits.
That story is quieter than the one the national headlines told. The biggest Los Angeles trades of 2025 ran to 110 million dollars, but those homes were in Holmby Hills and Bel-Air, not in Beverly Hills. The distinction matters more than it looks, and not only for bragging rights. It changes how a seller is taxed, how a buyer should underwrite an offer, and which comparable sales an appraiser is allowed to use.
Debbie Pisaro tracks these closings the way she tracks the architectural homes she sells across Los Angeles, by reading the records rather than the press releases. What follows is the verified Beverly Hills sales record for 2025, the context behind each price, and the one tax line every owner of a high end 90210 home should understand before listing.
What were the most expensive homes sold in Beverly Hills in 2025?
The two priciest closed sales recorded at a Beverly Hills 90210 address in 2025 were 71 Beverly Park, which sold for 63.1 million dollars in June, and 1028 Ridgedale Drive, which sold for 60 million dollars in April. Both were trophy estates of more than fourteen thousand square feet, both closed below their original asking prices, and both were brokered off a small roster of luxury specialists who handle nearly every nine figure and high eight figure deal on the Westside. Debbie Pisaro of Coastline 840, a Los Angeles luxury real estate agent who holds California DRE #01369110, notes that neither sale set a Beverly Hills record. They reset expectations instead, confirming that the city's true ceiling in 2025 sat in the low sixties, while the headline grabbing nine figure trades happened just outside its borders in Bel-Air and Holmby Hills.
71 Beverly Park: 63.1 million dollars
The year's top sale closed on June 20, 2025. The buyers were Paris Hilton and Carter Reum, who acquired the estate after losing their Malibu home in the January 2025 Palisades fire, part of a wave of fire displaced buyers that drove much of the Westside's luxury volume through the year. The 30,500 square foot house was designed by Richard Landry and sits on a 6.2 acre lot inside Beverly Park, the guard gated community above Beverly Hills. It carries twelve bedrooms, twenty bathrooms, a five hole golf course, a resort pool, a screening room, and a two story library. The price worked out to roughly 2,069 dollars per square foot.
The seller was a firm tied to the family of Chinese medical device billionaire Xu Hang, represented by Ginger and Alexandra Glass of Compass. The home was originally built by Mark Wahlberg around 2014, and Wahlberg's own exit from the property is the most instructive part of its history. In February 2023 he sold it for 55 million dollars, after listing at 87.5 million and cutting hard to close before the Los Angeles mansion tax took effect that April. That detail is the whole reason the tax line later in this post matters.
1028 Ridgedale Drive: 60 million dollars
The second largest sale closed on April 28, 2025, and held the title of the year's priciest Beverly Hills deal for two months until Beverly Park overtook it. The seller was Australian billionaire James Packer, former chair of Crown Resorts, who let the estate go for 60 million dollars after originally asking 85 million in 2023. Built in 1930 in a traditional style, the home runs about 14,579 square feet across three stories on a 1.87 acre lot, with twelve bedrooms and eighteen bathrooms. Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman owned it for two decades before selling in 2015 for 26.6 million dollars, and Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck leased it during their marriage.
Kurt Rappaport of Westside Estate Agency and Drew Fenton of Carolwood Estates represented Packer. Rappaport also represented the buyer, who closed through an undisclosed entity. Unlike Beverly Park, 1028 Ridgedale Drive sits in the flats of the actual City of Beverly Hills, which is the detail that separates the two halves of this market.
Why one ZIP code is really two markets
The 90210 ZIP code is shared by two different governments, and the line between them is worth millions at the closing table. The flats and Trousdale Estates sit inside the incorporated City of Beverly Hills. Beverly Park, Beverly Crest, and the hills running toward Bel-Air carry Beverly Hills mailing addresses but lie inside the City of Los Angeles. That boundary decides whether a seller pays the Los Angeles mansion tax, the same tax that reaches City of Los Angeles neighborhoods far from the Westside, including Eastside areas like Los Feliz.
Measure ULA, the transfer tax Los Angeles voters approved in 2022 and put into effect on April 1, 2023, charges 4 percent on property sales above roughly 5 million dollars and 5.5 percent on sales above roughly 10 million dollars, with the thresholds adjusted annually for inflation. It applies only to real estate sold inside the City of Los Angeles. The City of Beverly Hills is a separate municipality and is not subject to it, a point confirmed by the Los Angeles Office of Finance and by every transactional attorney working the Westside.
Run the two 2025 leaders through that filter and the gap is stark. 1028 Ridgedale Drive sits in the City of Beverly Hills flats, so its 60 million dollar sale carried no ULA tax at all, only the standard county documentary transfer tax. 71 Beverly Park, despite its Beverly Hills address, sits in the City of Los Angeles, so its 63.1 million dollar sale fell squarely inside ULA territory, where the 5.5 percent rate represents several million dollars. Mark Wahlberg understood this in 2023, which is exactly why he slashed his price to close that same house before April 1. The tax did not change the address. It changed the math.
For a seller, the practical takeaway is that two estates one street apart can net very different proceeds on the same headline price. For a buyer, the same boundary affects what an appraiser will treat as comparable, since a City of Los Angeles trophy home and a City of Beverly Hills trophy home are not perfect comps even when they share a ZIP. Debbie Pisaro models this line for every high end Beverly Hills client before a property is priced, because the difference is not academic. On a 12 million dollar Los Angeles sale, ULA alone is roughly 660,000 dollars.
How 2025 compared to the year before
The 2025 ceiling of 63.1 million dollars marked a clear step up from 2024, when no on market Beverly Hills sale crossed 40 million. The top recorded Beverly Hills trade of 2024 was 1006 North Roxbury Drive, a home of more than 20,000 square feet that sold for 37.1 million dollars in June. It was followed in December by 619 North Arden Drive, a Spanish style residence from the 1920s with seven bedrooms and twelve bathrooms that closed at 35 million dollars, sold by a trust tied to producer David Zander and previously listed by film director Todd Phillips at 34.5 million in 2021. Days later, 984 North Alpine Drive sold for 33 million dollars to Sue Gross, former wife of PIMCO co-founder Bill Gross, the third largest Beverly Hills deal of that year.
The lesson in those numbers is that the Beverly Hills market did not run away in 2025 so much as it firmed at the very top while the headline grabbing nine figure sales clustered in neighboring Bel-Air and Holmby Hills. Spelling Manor, the 110 million dollar sale often misfiled as Beverly Hills in 2025, is in Bel-Air. So is 630 Nimes Road, another 110 million dollar trade. Debbie Pisaro treats this geography carefully, because the difference between a Beverly Hills comp and a Bel-Air comp is the difference between an offer that pencils and one that does not.
What this means for buyers and sellers at the top of Beverly Hills
For sellers, the 2025 record carries a consistent signal. Both leaders closed below ask, 71 Beverly Park by about 7 percent and 1028 Ridgedale Drive by nearly 30 percent off its peak 2023 number. Ultra luxury Beverly Hills inventory still moves, but it moves at a negotiated price and often after months on the market. Debbie Pisaro prices these homes against verified closed comps rather than aspirational list prices, and she models the Measure ULA exposure before a number goes public, so a seller knows the net, not just the gross, from day one.
For buyers, the same record argues for independent representation. At this tier the listing agents are a small, repeat group, and a buyer working without a dedicated advocate is negotiating against people who do these deals weekly. Debbie Pisaro represents buyers across Beverly Hills, the surrounding Westside, and the architectural pockets of the Los Angeles Eastside, underwriting each offer against the tax boundary, the true comparable set, and the seller's actual motivation rather than the marketing narrative.
The next benchmarks for the city are likely to come from its new branded residences rather than its resale estates. Debbie Pisaro follows that segment closely, including projects like Aman Beverly Hills and One Beverly Hills, in her ongoing coverage of California branded residences. For buyers weighing those towers, Debbie Pisaro keeps a detailed guide to the Aman Beverly Hills residences on Coastline 840, where developer pricing and resale value diverge in ways an unrepresented buyer rarely sees coming.
Before you list a high end Beverly Hills home, confirm which city it is actually in. The answer decides whether the Los Angeles mansion tax touches your sale, and on a trophy estate that single fact can move your net by millions.
Beverly Hills luxury sales, frequently asked
The most expensive home sold at a Beverly Hills 90210 address in 2025 was 71 Beverly Park, which closed on June 20, 2025 for 63.1 million dollars. The 30,500 square foot Richard Landry estate was bought by Paris Hilton and Carter Reum and had previously been built and owned by Mark Wahlberg.
1028 Ridgedale Drive sold for 60 million dollars on April 28, 2025, down from an original 2023 asking price of 85 million dollars. The 1930 traditional estate was sold by Australian billionaire James Packer and had been owned earlier by Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman.
No. The City of Beverly Hills is a separate municipality and is not subject to Measure ULA, the Los Angeles transfer tax that charges 4 percent on sales above about 5 million dollars and 5.5 percent above about 10 million dollars. Beverly Hills sellers pay only the standard county transfer tax. The exception is that Beverly Park, Beverly Crest, and other hillside areas with Beverly Hills addresses are inside the City of Los Angeles and do pay Measure ULA.
Because the 90210 ZIP code is split between two cities. The flats and Trousdale Estates lie inside the incorporated City of Beverly Hills and are exempt from Measure ULA. Beverly Park, Beverly Crest, and the canyons toward Bel-Air carry Beverly Hills mailing addresses but sit inside the City of Los Angeles, where the mansion tax applies. Debbie Pisaro verifies the actual jurisdiction for every high end listing before pricing it.
Not within the City of Beverly Hills. The two 110 million dollar Los Angeles sales of 2025, 594 South Mapleton Drive and 630 Nimes Road, were in Holmby Hills and Bel-Air respectively. The top sale at a Beverly Hills address was 71 Beverly Park at 63.1 million dollars.
In 2025 the top tier of the Beverly Hills market began around 30 million dollars, with trophy estates in Beverly Park and the prime flats closing between 33 and 63 million dollars. Sales above 50 million dollars remained rare and were concentrated in a handful of guard gated and flats addresses.
Longer than the broader market and usually below asking. 71 Beverly Park spent 91 days on the market and closed about 7 percent under its list price, while 1028 Ridgedale Drive sold for nearly 30 percent below its peak 2023 ask. Trophy estates at this level are negotiated transactions, not quick sales, which is why pricing against verified comps matters.
Debbie Pisaro of Coastline 840, California DRE #01369110, represents buyers and sellers of luxury and architectural homes across Beverly Hills, the Westside, and the Los Angeles Eastside. With 24 years of California experience, she prices against verified closed comps, models Measure ULA exposure before listing, and gives buyers independent representation against the small group of agents who handle most high end Beverly Hills deals.
Likely yes. New branded residence projects such as Aman Beverly Hills and One Beverly Hills are positioned to set per square foot benchmarks well above the resale market. Debbie Pisaro covers this segment in her California branded residences collection, where developer pricing and eventual resale value often diverge in ways that reward represented buyers.
