New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has listed his Malibu, Calif., beachfront estate for $40 million, according to a Realtor.com exclusive report published Aug. 13 β a listing price roughly 43% above the $28 million Rodgers paid for the property through a trust in 2019.
The 4,625-square-foot oceanfront compound sits along Pacific Coast Highway and includes a fully remodeled main residence with four bedrooms and four bathrooms, plus a separate two-bedroom guest house. The property features walls of disappearing glass opening onto Pacific Ocean views, along with a primary suite built around a spa-inspired bath, according to the listing details.
The Malibu listing is the third home Rodgers has put on the market recently. Realtor.com reported that the 42-year-old quarterback has also listed properties in New Jersey and Wisconsin, states tied to his NFL career with the Jets and his earlier tenure with the Green Bay Packers, suggesting a broader consolidation of his real estate holdings as he continues playing for New York.
Rodgers purchased the Malibu property through a trust in 2019, a common structure used by high-profile buyers seeking a degree of privacy in real estate transactions. The nearly $12 million gain reflected in the new asking price β before accounting for the cost of the remodel β illustrates the continued strength of ultra-luxury coastal real estate in Malibu, one of the most closely watched markets for trophy-property pricing in Southern California.
Celebrity-owned trophy properties have continued to command premium pricing across Southern California even as broader luxury markets show mixed signals elsewhere in the country. RealtyWire recently covered a Beverly Hills mansion listed for $45 million, and separately reported that Austin, Texas luxury home prices posted the steepest drop in the nation this year β a reminder that high-end pricing strength is concentrated in specific coastal markets rather than uniform nationally. Malibu, with its limited inventory of oceanfront parcels along Pacific Coast Highway, remains one of the markets where list prices for well-known sellers routinely draw significant buyer interest despite broader affordability pressures in the wider Los Angeles market.
What it means: The purchase price, listing price and property specifications are drawn directly from Realtor.com’s reporting on the listing itself. The eventual sale price β and whether Rodgers achieves his full asking price β won’t be known until the property changes hands; list prices for luxury properties frequently settle after negotiation.
What to watch: Whether the Malibu estate sells near its $40 million ask, and whether Rodgers’ simultaneous New Jersey and Wisconsin listings signal a full transition of his primary residence toward the New York area.
