Anthony Davis walked away with less than he paid for his Bel Air estate after selling the 17,254-square-foot property at 2100 Stratford Circle for $32 million on Thursday, July 9.
The deal closed nearly 20% below Davis's $39.9 million asking price and just $1 million above his 2021 purchase price of $31 million. But because the property sits within Los Angeles city limits, Davis owed approximately $1.8 million under Measure ULA, the city's 5.5% transfer tax on sales exceeding the current $10.9 million threshold, according to The Real Deal. After that hit, the eight-time NBA All-Star effectively lost money on the transaction.
Davis, who spent six seasons with the Lakers before being traded in 2025, listed the home in mid-2025. It went into contract in mid-April and closed Thursday, according to The Real Deal.
Jordan Cohen of Re/Max One represented Davis. Cohen, ranked as Re/Max's No. 1 agent worldwide, has represented more than 150 professional athletes. Jacob Dadon of Carolwood Estates represented the buyer, whose identity the brokerage declined to disclose.
The three-story residence in the Bel Air Crest neighborhood includes eight bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, a theater, wine cellar, gym with massage room and salon, batting cage, Olympic-size pool, combined tennis and basketball court, and a motor court large enough for more than 30 cars, according to the property listing on Zillow.
Two more Westside trophy deals pending
The Davis sale lands alongside two other high-dollar Westside transactions that went under contract in late June and early July but have not yet closed.
Casino mogul Steve Wynn's 27,000-square-foot Beverly Hills compound at 1210 Benedict Canyon Drive, known as Villa Lulu, went under contract in late June for approximately $50 million, the New York Post reported. The 11-bedroom estate was once listed as high as $135 million. Wynn purchased it in 2015 for $47.9 million from Guess co-founder Maurice Marciano.
In Holmby Hills, a 2.8-acre estate at 10250 West Sunset Boulevard found a buyer in early July at an asking price of $43.5 million, the New York Post reported. The Georgian Colonial main house, designed by architect Paul Williams in 1939, was formerly owned by fashion designer Max Azria and had lingered on and off the market for 11 years. Mauricio Umansky and Farah Levi of The Agency hold the listing.
Neither deal has closed, and final sale prices remain unknown. Unlike Davis's Bel Air Crest property, the Beverly Hills estate would not be subject to Measure ULA because Beverly Hills is a separate municipality outside Los Angeles city limits.
