Michael Jordan’s quest to promote his Chicago mansion isn’t getting any simpler.
The Bulls legend’s residence — at the moment listed for $14.855 million — has been available on the market since 2012, and a January TikTok video by person @decayingmidwest purportedly reveals the seven-acre property in disrepair.
The video has gone viral in latest days, placing consideration on the alleged state of the Highland Park residence, which was initially listed for $29 million when it hit the market.
An indoor basketball court docket, full with a Bulls emblem, seems to be flooded.
The kitchen is seemingly trapped mid-renovation with cabinet doorways on the bottom, with items of wooden and trash all through the room.
The largely empty home has chairs, beds and couches within the rooms, although it’s clear there haven’t been many tenants, if any, in years.
Jordan’s troubles promoting the property have been well-documented: in 2013, he slashed the asking value to $16 million.
Now, it continues to take a seat on the cheeky $14.855 value — with the digits including as much as 23, Jordan’s famed jersey quantity — the place it’s been for the previous 9 years.
Not that the home doesn’t have any attracts.
Amongst its promoting factors are a big Infinity-edge pool with an Island within the center, quite a few enjoyable lounges with huge flatscreen televisions, built-in bars, a sprawling patio and card and cigar room.
The house did see an inflow of curiosity lately, maybe attributable to 2020’s “The Final Dance” documentary.
“I’m undecided if it’s due to the TV packages that they did (the 2020 “The Final Dance” documentary miniseries on Netflix) or if it’s as a result of individuals have an curiosity in taking a look at it a bit bit otherwise, however immediately there does seem like a little bit of curiosity in it,” Katherine Malkin of Compass advised The Chicago Tribune in 2022.
In 2023, a, 18-year-old man was arrested for trying to interrupt into the property.
Jordan and spouse Yvette Prieto don’t appear to be sweating the sale or any viral video fallout — they’ve been spending the summer season yachting round Europe.
