Celine Dion's Island Dream Mansion Asks for Discounted Price
Celine Dion, contemporary hit singer, has lowered the price of her Jupiter Island Mansion from $72.5 million to $62.5 million, a $10 million discount.
The legendary Jupiter Mansion declares 10,000 square-feet, a water park with slides, a lazy river, and more, on over five acres of beachfront property. The home itself is located at 215 South Beach Road, Jupiter Island.
Joseph Montanaro, Montreal Realtor, is marketing the mansion. Montanaro has said there has not been much interest in the estate, not near as much as they had hoped. He also said that the $72.5 million asking price was almost as much as it cost to purchase and develop the property.
Thus far, Montanaro has not received any calls about the $10 million-price drop for the hyper-luxurious mansion home.
Many real estate professionals believe that the lack of interest in Dion’s home is due to the changing market. Extremely luxurious and lavish homes are no longer as popular as they used to be.

Opinions and Advice Why Are Luxury Condo Sales Surging in Downtown Miami as Sales Weaken in Miami Beach?
Move over Miami Beach, there’s a new rising star on the block. For long, Miami Beach has been the hot favorite for property seekers in Miami. Whether it’s been about purchasing a permanent residence or getting a second home, South Beach properties have always sold out like hot cakes. On the other hand, Greater Downtown (Edgewater and Brickell included) has mostly been a second-best option to South Beach and Miami Beach, possibly out of necessity, with proximity to work being the biggest motivator for local buyers. But, as we’ve been tracing luxury condo trends over the last couple of years via our quarterly market reports, we noticed a reversal. The Greater Downtown area is now emerging as the top favorite among luxury condo seekers. Here are some reasons we are seeing this new trend: Numbers Speak: Miami Beach vs. Greater Downtown Miami Over the past couple of quarters, sales trends in Greater Downtown Miami have been marching ahead, even as those in Miami Beach slowed down....
Real Estate News Massive Lawsuits Won by Miami Condo Associations Mean Awesome Upgrades for Condo Owners and Residents
Recently, a handful of condo associations have scored massive windfalls thanks to lawsuits leveraged against insurers and developers. This is obviously great news for condo associations, and it also usually means that the associations' finances will likely be great for years to come. This in turn translates into improved living conditions for residents of those buildings, since these windfalls provide opportunities for condo associations to make major repairs and improvements that benefit residents. Oftentimes, the amount of money they win does not actually need to be spent entirely on the issue that motivated the lawsuit (many times the repairs have already been made by the time the lawsuit is settled). This provides a great opportunity for the condo to either fill their reserves and avoid special assessments on future capital improvements and maintenance projects, or simply spend money doing awesome upgrades on various things.
