September 21, 2026 · 8 min read · By Onias Derilus, Broker
Eric Trump lives in Jupiter, Florida, in a home he and his wife bought in 2021 inside the Trump National Golf Club community. This post covers the reported price and size, why the family landed in northern Palm Beach County, and what golf-course homes in Jupiter cost today.
Where does Eric Trump live? He lives in Jupiter, Florida, in a golf-course home inside the Trump National Golf Club community. The Real Deal reported that he and his wife, Lara, paid $3.2 million for the house in 2021. The couple left Manhattan for Florida full time in 2022. This post sticks to the property and the place: what was paid, what the home is, why Jupiter, and what homes nearby cost now.
Key takeaways
- Jupiter, Trump National: The home is inside the gated Trump National Golf Club community in northern Palm Beach County.
- $3.2 million in 2021: The Real Deal reported the deal closed in March 2021; other outlets covered it that May.
- About 7,700 square feet: Reports describe a four-bedroom, five-bathroom house from 2004 with a pool and cabana on more than half an acre.
- Family nearby: His brother bought in Jupiter the same spring, and the family's Palm Beach base is 20 miles south.
Where does Eric Trump live in Florida?
Eric Trump's home is in Jupiter, the northernmost city in Palm Beach County. He and Lara bought inside Trump National Golf Club Jupiter, the private club his father's company purchased in 2012. The residential side of the club is a gated community of a few hundred homes wrapped around the course.
On paper, the choice made sense. The Trump Organization runs the club, so membership was never in question. Jupiter is also a short drive from Palm Beach, where his father lives at Mar-a-Lago, and from Palm Beach International Airport. Reports at the time noted that the Trump family had begun moving south in stages after 2019. The Jupiter purchase was part of that shift.
The club itself has a short history. It opened in 2002 as the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club and Spa, with an 18-hole course by Jack Nicklaus that plays to 7,404 yards. The Trump Organization bought it from Ritz-Carlton in December 2012. Wikipedia records the price as $5 million plus the assumption of about $30 million in refundable member deposits. A dispute with former members over those deposits ended in a $5 million settlement in 2017. The homes around the course predate the Trump purchase, so the community is older than the name suggests.
Pure Equity does not publish private addresses. The community and the town are as specific as this post gets. For a sense of the wider golf market in the area, see Jupiter Country Club and the region's golf and country club homes.
Inside the reported Jupiter home
The Real Deal put the price at $3.2 million and the size at 7,715 square feet. The house has four bedrooms and five bathrooms, and it dates to 2004. It is a two-story home on a lot of just over half an acre, with a pool and a cabana.
A Realtor.com report that ran when Lara started her Fox News show in 2025 described the interior. It listed coffered ceilings, marble floors, a formal dining room, a living room with a fireplace, a wood-paneled office, and a wet bar. The same report cited a Realtor.com estimate that the home had roughly doubled in value, to about $7.7 million. That is a model estimate rather than a sale.
Outlets differ slightly on timing. The Real Deal said the purchase closed in March 2021. Coverage from The Hill, SheKnows and others followed in May 2021, when the deed became public. Every account gives the same price.
The New York home they left behind
Before Florida, the couple lived in a combined penthouse in a Trump building on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Realtor.com reported that Eric bought units there in 2016 and merged three of them. The result was a four-bedroom, five-bathroom apartment of about 2,625 square feet. After the move south, the apartment went up for rent at about $17,000 a month.
That order of events matters for anyone weighing a similar move. The Florida house closed first, in 2021. Then the full relocation of the family, including two young children, came in 2022. Rather than sell, they turned the New York apartment into a rental. Many Northeast owners who move to Palm Beach County do the same thing. They keep the old home for a year or two before deciding.
Why Eric Trump chose Jupiter
The reported reasons are practical. First, the club. Eric Trump has run the Trump Organization's golf portfolio for years, and Trump National Jupiter is one of its properties. Living inside it puts him at work and at home at once. Second, family. His brother Donald Jr. bought a waterfront home in Jupiter's Admirals Cove weeks earlier in 2021. It is about five miles away. Their father is in Palm Beach.
Third, the tax and climate reasons that move many high earners to Florida. Reports on the purchase pointed out that the family had faced resistance at some private clubs elsewhere in the state. A home inside a club the company owns removed that issue. Jupiter also has strong schools, a low-key downtown, and a beach, which suits a family with young kids.
Where else does Eric Trump live?
Public reporting lists two homes: the Jupiter house, which is the primary residence, and the Manhattan penthouse, which the couple rented out after moving. There is no reported third home. Eric Trump travels often for the company, whose golf properties stretch from Scotland to Los Angeles. Those are work trips rather than residences.
The couple has not reported any plan to sell in Jupiter. When Lara's Fox News show launched in 2025, Realtor.com asked whether they would move back to New York. It found no sign of it. The show can air from New York or from Florida.
What homes near Eric Trump cost
Jupiter has a deep market with a wide spread. Our MLS feed as of September 2026 shows about 730 active listings in Jupiter, with a median list price near $875,000 and an average of about 116 days on market. Golf-course homes inside gated clubs sit well above that median. Next door, Palm Beach Gardens runs a similar market. It shows about 760 active listings and a median near $898,000 in the same feed, and its clubs compete for the same buyers. Both towns saw days on market stretch in 2025 and 2026 as inventory grew.
The $3.2 million the Trumps paid in 2021 would buy less today. Prices across the town's club communities rose sharply between 2021 and 2024. That is why the Realtor.com estimate on the home more than doubled. A 7,700-square-foot home on a golf course in a Jupiter club now trades in the mid-single-digit millions and up, depending on the club and the view.
Owners in nearby clubs can compare with Admirals Cove, where his brother bought, and with the estate-scale Bear's Club. County-wide numbers live on the Palm Beach County page, and buyers who want a gate can start at gated communities.
