The real reason nobody wants to buy Michael Jordan’s Chicago mansion

It’s been eight years and Michael Jordan still hasn’t been able to unload his mansion in Chicago, and the price on it just keeps going down. So what gives? It’s the definition of baller, no pun intended, and it would be kind of cool to live in His Airness’ not-so-humble abode.

But maybe that’s the rub. The house is so well known, with the 23-gate and all, and literally branded by Jordan. You’d have to struggle to really make it your own and that might not be worth it. It takes a certain kind of person who would move in, as is, and be okay with every nook and cranny reeking of Jordan’s taste. Not that it’s bad taste, but you’d probably have to either be a really big fan or be prepared to undertake some significant renovations. This is a house that say, another athlete or celeb should buy, just for the bragging rights. Bottom line: It’s not for everyone.
