Cash Is King: 43% of Luxury Home Purchases Are Paid for in Cash, Up From 35% Last Year

Who cares about high-interest rates when you are buying your home in cash?!?

About 43% of luxury homes that sold in the third quarter of 2023 were purchased in cash, up from just 34.6% a year earlier.

By comparison, just 28% of non-luxury homes that sold were bought in cash, little changed from the third quarter of 2022.
