Billionaires are known for their extravagant lifestyles, and nowhere is that more evident than in the homes they own. But even the ultra-wealthy aren't immune to the pressures of the housing market, and some find it difficult to offload their lavish estates. From sprawling compounds to coastal mansions, here's a look at some of the most jaw-dropping billionaire homes on the market.
Marc Andreessen
Marc Andreessen, the tech investor and co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, has his $33 million Bay Area mansion up for grabs. Located in Atherton, California, the mansion is the perfect space for any party host. With five bedrooms and four bathrooms, the home also boasts seven fireplaces and not one but two kitchens, ideal for catering to those exclusive get-togethers. Despite this sale, Marc isn’t entirely done with California real estate, as he and his wife Laura have spent over $250 million on several Malibu properties, including a staggering $177 million estate.

Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Technologies, is no stranger to high-priced real estate. He’s known for owning one of New York’s most expensive homes, but now he’s looking to offload two equally impressive properties in Boston. One of them, located in Boston’s tallest residential tower, One Dalton, is listed for $34 million. This luxury penthouse includes a 24-hour concierge service and offers breathtaking views from a 570-square-foot private balcony. The other, priced at $9.45 million, sits atop the Millennium Tower and offers floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic views of Boston.

Gordon Getty, the billionaire heir of the Getty oil fortune, is parting ways with his beloved "Temple of Wings" mansion in Berkeley, California. This Greek and Roman-inspired architectural gem has been in the Getty family since 1994 and is now listed for $5 million. Spanning just under 4,000 square feet, the property features Corinthian columns, lush greenery, and a design that transports you to the European countryside. Getty and his late wife, Ann, filled the home with valuable art pieces. But after Ann’s passing in 2020, Getty has decided to let go of the family’s cherished estate.

Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob is betting big again, this time on selling his Malibu mansion for $44 million. The home is on Carbon Beach—often called “Billionaires’ Beach." Spanning 5,500 square feet, the house includes five bedrooms, open balconies, a waterfall wall, and even a private movie theater. Perfect for entertaining, the mansion also features a barbecue island, a fire pit, and a hot tub on its third level.
Rupert Murdoch
Even media mogul Rupert Murdoch is feeling the pinch of the real estate market. His opulent NYC penthouse, located in the heart of Manhattan, has seen its asking price cut in half since it was first listed in 2022. Despite the price reduction, this lavish property remains one of the most luxurious homes in New York City.
