Karp paid $46 million in June of last year for the 9,700-square-foot mansion at 55 East San Marino Drive.

The 2,900-square-foot house, built in 1945, was on the market with Dora Puig of Luxe Living Realty, <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/miami\/2026\/03\/30\/groupe-dayan-chuck-khubani-find-buyers-for-miami-beach-homes\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">asking $30 million<\/a>. 29 ESM Inc., which paid just $6.8 million for the house in 2015, sold the property. Late restaurateur Karim Masri, who died in 2024, previously lived there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A number of multimillionaires and billionaires have purchased homes in South Florida in recent months, some propelled by the <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/san-francisco\/2026\/02\/21\/tech-billionaires-battle-ca-wealth-tax\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">proposed wealth tax in California<\/a> and all likely fueled by Florida\u2019s lack of state income tax.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In March, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan closed on an under-construction waterfront Indian Creek estate for <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/miami\/2026\/03\/02\/mark-zuckerberg-drops-170-million-for-billionaire-bunker\/?itm_source=parsely-api&amp;utm_source=parsely-top-posts&amp;utm_medium=top-article&amp;utm_campaign=recommended-content\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$170 million<\/a>. That deal marks the most expensive home ever sold in Miami-Dade County. That same month, ex-Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz announced his move to Miami from Seattle on his LinkedIn, spending <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/miami\/2026\/03\/11\/starbucks-howard-schultz-buys-penthouse-in-move-to-miami\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$44 million<\/a> to acquire a penthouse at the Four Seasons Residences at the Surf Club.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Also in recent months, Google co-founder Larry Page <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/miami\/2026\/01\/22\/google-co-founder-larry-page-buys-third-miami-home\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">paid $188 million<\/a> for three Coconut Grove homes in deals that were recorded in December and January.
