3. Michael Jordan's Chicago Estate
The basketball legend had originally put the property up for sale in 2012 for $29 million but has had such a difficult time selling it that the price has dropped all the way down to $15 million.

4. Sylvester Stallone's California Estate
Originally valued at $4.5 million, the Rocky actor helped with the design of the house which is said to be inspired by his Italian heritage. Despite being an architectural beauty, with coved ceilings, hardwood floors, arched entryways and even decked with a wine cellar, the mansion has been on the market for over 8 years and has since been re-listed at $3.9 million.

The New Jersey town’s planning board approved a subdivision for the land the house is on, meaning that you would be contractually obliged to also buy the land which would would cost you a very pretty penny.
