Ever heard of a $15million price reduction?
Record setting price for a home in Beverly Hills closed today.
A friend of mines brokerage worked on this $70million transaction that closed today.
Thirty five year old Markus Persson (inventor of the popular video game Minecraft) closed today on this home after winning the bid just 6 days ago for $15million below the asking price of $85million.
Apparently there were multiple offers and somewhat of a bidding war and at the end of the day the "all cash 6 day close" offer (so aggressive that would make even a Ron Legrand proud) won the bid.
Let me know what you think of this house.
I personally think the house would have sold for more with a shorter escrow had the videographer put the shots of the garage (starts at approx 2:45) more toward the beginning of this video tour:
What say you?
