Athlete and Celebrity Homes
“Whatever field you are in, your goal in this life should be to leave all of your talents and gifts behind. Give and let the world receive.” – Kofi Nartey, founder, SOTALOT Realty Group
NBA star Michael Jordan plans to build a 38,000-square-foot mansion in Jupiter, Fla.’s Bear Club golf community which will cost $7.6 million to build…it will have 11 bedrooms, 10-foot ceilings and an elevator…Houston Rockets owner, Leslie Alexander bought a New York City penthouse for $25 million and then listed it for $39.5 million…A Los Angeles-area home once owned by Cary Grant and later by Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith hit the market with a price tag of $3.495 million…Tony Hawk has a sweet 5,000 square-foot house which includes $150,000 worth of gaming electronics in the living room…etc, etc, etc…
If you’re like me, it stings a bit to read about celebrities and athletes buying real-estate while most of us struggle to make ends meet. It also seems excessively lavish and often a bit unfair at times. But rather than spite those that live the life of luxury, I learned about something amazing last week which bears sharing, the SOTALOT Realty Group.
SOTALOT was founded by Kofi Natei Nartey This guy is amazing…he’s got numerous years of professional real estate experience with a business background that includes financial advising, mortgage lending, motivational speaking, and management training…and he is also a former professional athlete…no surprise that SOTALOT exists to meet the unique real estate needs of Professional Athletes and Entertainers…with a twist. When you complete a transaction with them, the SOTALOT Realty Group will donate part of the proceeds to the charity of the buyer’s choice…and while I can’t say who their clients are, I can tell you that I firmly support any athlete that chooses to purchase a home through them ( Unless its Lebron of course). Props to SOTALOT for putting themselves on the ‘We Are Not A Greedy Company’ list…
As always, thanks for reading. Delinda@athlebrities.com
