The bar chart illustrates the quantity of residences sold for more than 5 million US dollars across eight major cities in 2009 and 2014.
Overall, sales of these high-value properties rose in all cities except Singapore over the period. London recorded by far the highest number of such home sales in both years, while Dubai had the lowest figures.
In detail, London saw the most dramatic growth, with ultra-luxury home sales more than tripling from 523 in 2009 to 1638 in 2014, making it the clear leader. New York and Hong Kong also saw significant rises, from 476 to 796 and 388 to 596 respectively. The remaining cities with growing sales had far smaller volumes: Miami’s figure grew from 256 to 312, Los Angeles from 178 to 214, and Sydney from 151 to 258. Dubai, despite having the smallest sales count in 2009 at just 12, saw its figure nearly quadruple to 46 in 2014. By contrast, Singapore was the only city where luxury home sales fell, dropping from 107 to 74 over the five-year period.
