Luxury real estate agents in Beverly Hills are side-eyeing the recent sale of President Trump's 5,400-square-foot mansion for $13.5 million.
Trump bought the house on Canon Drive for $7 million in 2007, Los Angeles County land records show, and in 2018, the county assessed the property at $8.3 million. It was never listed for sale publicly, The Washington Post reports, and the price "seems a little rich, to be perfectly frank," Luis Pezzini, CEO of Pezzini Luxury Homes, told the Post. "Unless there's something spectacular about this [house] that I'm missing." Pezzini said he's selling a house close to Trump's, but it's bigger, on a larger lot, and has a tennis court, and he expects to get just under $13.5 million.
