Got a spare $150 million laying around?

Hey, it's on sale at $46 million off the original $195m, down to a mere $149m big ones.

or you can lease it for $475,000 a month

That would be one hell of a commission. When you get into the 8+ figures, do real estate commissions drop from much 6% ? I know it's negotiable.

It's always negotiable. But even if it as 6% it's customary to split that with the agent who brings the buyer.


One reason these pay big, is because this house may be on the market for years at that price. The agent is rolling the dice and coming out of pocket to market the property and fronting costs for that and won't get paid until it's sold.

Jeff Greene. Interesting guy. Contrarian. Bet against the sub-prime mortgage biz in 2006 and ascended to the Forbes 400 list.

Turning a $30M purchased into a $200M asking price.
Well that's one way of 'hedging' your bets.

Personally, I'd enjoy a castle+acreage much more as a home. For 1/10th the price.
Or an island.

Jeff Greene is smoking crack. That pad isn't worth a penny over $90 Million.
