Despite its huge price cut, if the home sells for asking, it will be the most expensive home ever sold in the US. Only slightly Surpassing Ken Griffin’s $238 million NYC penthouse that he purchased in January of 2019. But will it actually sell for asking? Niami is hoping so despite some large flaws like “cracks in and around many of the pools and stonework, as well as signs of mold,” according to the CNBC article.
