The new property, bought through an off-market deal, is valued at $41 million by Zillow, but Bezos paid a premium, possibly due to its location and potential as a custom home site. Bezos's relocation to Florida coincides with selling approximately $8.5 billion worth of Amazon shares, taking advantage of the state's favorable tax environment.
