Britney Spears and A-Rod Drop Prices on Homes — Again

By: Diane Tuman, Zillow Content Manager | June 5, 2009

It looks like stars are suffering the bottoming of real estate, too, as Yankee superstar Alex Rodriguez and pop star Britney Spears dropped the prices on their homes — again. We reported in February that A-Rod and Britney dropped their home prices and it looks like, Oops they’ve done it again.

E! Online reported that pop star Britney Spears dropped the price on her Beverly Hills home earlier this week by $1.4 million. Here’s the timeline for Britney’s home:

  • Purchased home in January 2007 for $7.1 million
  • Listed it for sale in September 2008 for $7.9 million
  • Dropped price February 2009 to $7,195,000
  • Dropped price June 2 to $6.5 million

Spears is presently touring in London on her “Circus” tour.

A-Rod made headlines last year when he split from his wife, which inevitably led to the listing of his Coral Gables home (above) for $14,876,000. Here’s the timeline for A-Rod’s home:

  • Purchased home in December 2004 for $12 million
  • Listed it for sale in October 2008 for $14,876,000
  • Dropped price in February 2009 to $12.3 million
  • Dropped price in June 2009 to $11,000,000

    They shouldnt bother listing it. They wont be able to sell it even if they drop another million on it. The next available time they can sell that kind of house is somewhere second quarter of 2010. good luck to them.

    Any ideas as to why they are selling?

    Not sure about Britney, bu A-Rod is getting divorced, so it’s part of their settlement, I assume.

    Let’s just get this over with! Obama should just take the homes from these rich Americans and live in them himself and give the other one to Al Gore so they can both run up air conditioning bills (paid for by U.S. taxpayers) so high that it would dwarf most people’s mortgage payments all the while they force us to drive little Hitler-inspired paddy-wagon “VW bug” cars and drive the price of gas up to $8/gallon.

    Once Obama ruins the country
    and even acorn is homeless
    people will get a clue and impeach this Illegal President and we can rebuild
    We can rebuild without the GOV and make a stronger America under our states.

    All these corperate rules and regulation and Unions all to give kick backs to these politicians…….

    Britney’s house in NOT in Beverly Hills. Yes, it has a post code that is shared with parts of BH, but that’s it. The house is in Studio City, above the San Fernando Valley. The joint is not even on the right side of Mulholland Drive (it’s on the north side as opposed to the side south of Mulholland where properties often have views of the LA basin). Sorry Brits, you paid too much for this ugly suburban McMansion.

    Seize them sell them and give the money to the real hard working tax payers that’s what i vote anyone with me ?

  12. Kevin on June 26, 2009 9:13 am

    No Brian, I (and likely a lot of other) ain’t with you. You’re wrong because a)the lady is a hard working American who I’m sure has paid a lot of taxes. Despite her current “issues”, she’s been in a business that requires very hard work since she was a kid. b) what gives you the right to any portion of her property? She worked for it, so she can have it, aint that the American way? Unless you’re in China, you can’t simply assume other people’s private property. So, “hard working tax payer”, talk to me.
