It's all relative, but supposedly the top 1% had $11M in the US in 2022 (e.g., via https://www.forbes.com/advisor/investing/financial-advisor/are-you-in-the-top-1-percent https://www.forbes.com/advisor/investing/financial-advisor/a...). That means, 5 averagely priced houses do not put you in the top 1%, however, 1 big mansion in a nice area could.
- kelnos 3y ago$11M is net worth, not all of which needs to be held in residential real estate. I would expect a lot of people in that ballpark of net worth to probably "only" have a few million sunk into real property. The rest would likely be in securities. Also consider that someone with 5 houses may not even have all that much of their net worth in the houses; the could largely be financed.
