To compile our list of America’s Most Expensive Homes For Sale we scoured listings on Realtor.com, Trulia, Zillow and Streeteasy. We also contacted high-end real estate agencies across the country. In the process, we identified 26 available homes listed at $75 million or more, including six featured here that came to market since the beginning of 2016. Will they sell before the year ends? Only time will tell.
