Monaco’s real estate market has reached unprecedented heights, with total sales soaring to €5.9 billion in 2024. This historic milestone is largely attributed to a record-breaking wave of new property transactions, reinforcing the Principality’s status as one of the most exclusive and resilient real estate markets in the world.
Sales of newly built homes accounted for an astonishing €3.7 billion—more than the combined total of all new property sales in Monaco between 2006 and 2021. This surge follows the completion of 159 new residences in 2024, the highest number delivered in a single year since 1993. A significant portion of these properties emerged from the highly anticipated Mareterra eco-district in Larvotto, redefining luxury living in the Principality.
Demand for spacious, family-sized residences dominated the market, with nearly 95% of all new homes sold featuring three or more bedrooms. Among them, eight ultra-premium villas commanded staggering price tags, with over half of all new properties selling for €20 million or more. Additionally, seven transactions surpassed the €100 million mark, highlighting the extraordinary levels of wealth flowing into Monaco’s high-end real estate sector.
While the resale market experienced a slowdown for the second consecutive year, values remained resilient. The total number of resale transactions fell by 5.9% to 365, marking the lowest volume since 2012. However, the overall market value dipped only slightly, declining just 0.6% to €2.2 billion. The average resale price climbed to a record €6 million, a 5.7% increase from 2023, reinforcing Monaco’s reputation as a safe haven for luxury property investment.
Monte-Carlo remained the most sought-after district, accounting for 132 of the total 365 resales. La Rousse, the second most active neighborhood, experienced a notable downturn, with transactions plummeting by over 25%. Interestingly, while new developments favored larger family-sized residences, one-bedroom apartments were the only resale segment to see an increase in transactions.

While many global real estate markets have faced uncertainty in recent years, Monaco’s high-end property sector continues to thrive. International demand remains exceptionally strong, fueled by the Principality’s unique combination of safety, stability, and prestige. The launch of landmark developments like Mareterra is further reshaping the city-state’s skyline and reinforcing its allure among ultra-high-net-worth buyers.
Despite global economic fluctuations, Monaco’s real estate market remains a pillar of strength, with sustained price growth expected in the coming years. The scarcity of available properties, coupled with increasing interest from global investors, ensures that Monaco continues to set new records in the world of luxury real estate.
