Carolwood Estates 2025 Annual Report

Carolwood Estates has recently released its 2025 Annual Report, providing valuable insights into the firm's outstanding accomplishments over the past year. Based in Beverly Hills, California, Carolwood has solidified its position as a leader in the luxury real estate market by capturing a significant share of the high-end residential sales in Los Angeles.

In 2025, Carolwood participated in a staggering five out of the seven top brokered residential sales in the LA region, facilitating 71% of all transactions involving sales above $50 million. This achievement firmly establishes the firm as a powerhouse in the sector, demonstrating not only their extensive reach but also their expertise in luxury real estate.

The highlight of the report includes a pair of notable transactions, each valued at $110 million. The first of these was a high-profile purchase by a former tech CEO of the notorious Spelling Manor in Holmby Hills, which Carolwood CEO and Co-Founder Drew Fenton represented as the seller. Meanwhile, Linda May took the lead on representing the buyer in this monumental deal. The second significant sale involved Australian billionaire James Packer, who acquired the fully renovated 630 Nimes Road in Bel Air, with Fenton representing Packer and Jonathan Nash alongside Stephen Resnick and David Parnes serving as the seller's agents. Both transactions not only topped the list of the highest sales in LA County for the year but also earned recognition from the Wall Street Journal as two of the ten highest residential sales nationwide.

Importantly, Carolwood Estates achieved a monumental $5 billion in closed sales for 2025, reflecting a remarkable 156% increase year-over-year. Notably, $1.5 billion of these transactions were executed off-market, highlighting the firm's ability to navigate exclusive dealings in the competitive luxury market. The firm continues to maintain an impressive inventory estimated at $3.5 billion, with $1.3 billion held off-market, showcasing their unparalleled access to some of the most sought-after properties in the area.

Carolwood's exceptional performance can be attributed to its remarkable team of approximately 200 elite agents, who have helped the firm capture a commanding 27% share of the $20 million+ residential market and a solid 24% share of the $10 million+ market in prime neighborhoods across Los Angeles.

Beyond their focus on high-end luxury transactions, in 2025, Carolwood also closed over $1 billion in transactions below $4 million—indicating a diversified approach that caters to various segments of the market. This strategy allowed them to seamlessly navigate the diverse landscape of the real estate industry, proving their capability to deliver results across price points.

Additionally, Carolwood showcased some iconic new listings in 2025, including a $135 million trophy property by developer Ardie Tavangarian and a $40 million Brentwood property designed by noted architect Thomas Juul-Hansen. They also represented continued sales in notable neighborhoods such as Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and Holmby Hills, further cementing their dominance.

In January of last year, Carolwood proudly announced its exclusive affiliation with Knight Frank, a globally recognized property consultancy. This strategic alliance enhances Carolwood's appeal by connecting it with an expansive network of international clientele, providing opportunities to leverage global insights and partnerships within the luxury real estate market.
