The latest status symbol in luxury real estate is not a car, a yacht, or even a private jet. It is a glowing, spaceship-like sauna tucked into the grounds of a mega-compound, and you are about to see less polished versions of it popping up in backyards everywhere. Before you call your contractor, it is…
From the street, Jeff Bezos’ Beverly Hills compound already reads as a study in billionaire-scale ambition. Now, a gleaming, UFO-like pod has landed on the lawn, and you are meant to see it, puzzle over it, and, if early reports are right, imagine the most over-the-top sauna session of your life.

Across the country, you are watching a fundamental reset in how quickly homes attract offers.

If you understand how that damage starts and what it looks like in its early stages, you can intervene while repairs…
