Raiders’ Mark Davis tops the condo sales for 2023

Updated January 22, 2024 - 2:57 pm

Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis topped the list in 2023 of selling the most expensive condo in Las Vegas when he netted $10.5 million for his unit at The Summit Club in Summerlin.

Just like he did in relocating the Raiders from Oakland, Davis made a nice return on investment for the 2,862-square-foot condo that he bought in March 2021 for $5.3 million, according to Clark County property records. Davis listed the three-story condo for $13.5 million. Stay Away LLC is listed as the buyer.

The condo, which was completed in 2021, has two bedrooms, two three-quarter baths and one half bath. There is a bedroom on the main level and a primary bedroom downstairs. The unit has a great room with a fireplace, kitchen and balcony.

Davis flirted with Summit Club ownership before eventually turning to the hillsides of Henderson and closer to the Raiders headquarters in West Henderson. He has a $14 million custom home under construction by luxury builder Blue Heron in Ascaya, some seven miles from the headquarters compared to 23 miles from The Summit Club. Davis paid $6 million for the 6.3-acre lot in August 2020.

In December 2017, Davis paid $8.5 million for a 1.21-acre lot in the Summit Club where he planned to construct a custom home. Davis sold the lot for $10.5 million in July 2020 before buying his Ascaya lot a few days later.

Davis’ three-story home will resemble the Raiders’ practice facility and Allegiant Stadium. The upper floor resembles the bridge of a ship. The home, which has unobstructed views of Allegiant, is expected to be more than 15,000 square feet with a pool. Its address is 77 Sunset Strip, like the famed 1960s television series about a Los Angeles private detective that aired from 1958 to 1964.
