Michael Phelps is finding that being the most decorated Olympian of all time doesn’t necessarily help you in real estate.
The popular swimmer’s 4,000-square-foot condo along Baltimore’s popular Inner Harbor area lingered on the market for several months before reportedly being sold for $440,000 less than what he originally paid for it.
The three-bedroom, four-floor condo “loft” features hardwood floors, 2.5 baths, granite countertops, and floor-to-ceiling windows with waterfront views.
Phelps purchased the condo in 2007 for just under $1.7 million. The condo was listed recently for $1.42 million.
The property reportedly just recently went under contract for $1.25 million.
