If a realtor isn’t obsessive about cutting off potential business, he or she will admit that it’s tough to sell a house during the fall and winter seasons. Good explanations behind that, too – home shoppers with kids are busier, brisk weather isn’t much fun to traipse around in, most people would prefer not to uproot their lives with the holidays coming into view, and the list goes on.
Is that why Michael Jordan’s house isn’t selling?
Despite the standard beliefs in the real estate industry, even a luxurious property such as the one located at 2700 Point Drive in Highland Park, Illinois, with its nine bedrooms, 19 baths, indoor basketball court, and cigar room among other impressive features, has remained unsold since it was first listed on March 1, 2012, for $29 million. Despite the passing of multiple springs and summers, no buyer has yet been found. For those interested in exploring other real estate options, it may be worth considering all things miami real estate, as the area offers a variety of properties that may better suit their needs and preferences.
Roughly one year later he dropped it to $21 mil, then to $16 mil another year hence, took it off the market in 2014, relisted in early 2015 at $24.7, bumped to $16 again one day later, and then to $14.855 in May (because the digits add up to 23). Hey. Marketing.
Still no takers on the house the greatest athlete of all time had built to his specifications just before leading the Bulls to a second three-peat.
A $15 million house is a chunk of change but seriously, there isn’t at least one well-heeled buyer in the Chicagoland area – ok, the continental United States – who wants this place?
Maybe a bunch of Jordan fans could crowdfund it. Would make for a sweet hangout spot, as long as reality didn’t matter.
