U.S. real estate, as always, was well-represented, and many of the industry’s biggest names ended up adding to their fortunes this year. Donald Bren, chair of Southern California-based Irvine Company, is the wealthiest American real estate titan, just cracking the top 100 (#97) with a $17.4 billion fortune, an increase of $1.2 billion from last year. Also making the cut is Related Companies founder Stephen Ross (#147), whose net worth shot up to $11.6 billion from $8.2 billion, and retail mogul Jeff Sutton (#1217), who Forbes pegged to be worth $2.5 billion, down from $3.1 billion. Adam Neumann maintained a spot on the list (#1368) with a net worth of $2.2 billion, up considerably from $1.4 billion last year. And, of course, former president Donald Trump, (#1,217) who saw his fortune decrease to $2.5 billion from $3 billion.
