Former NBA star Shaquille sells his $1.7 million mansion in one month

Shaquille, a former NBA player, is sure to make a lot of money because he sold his Texas property for $1.7 million just one month after listing it.

The Carrollton, Texas, home was advertised for $1,695,000; however, the sale price has not been released. Shaq, 52, probably made a good profit on the pad, which was listed for $1,224,000 when he purchased it in 2022 and is situated just outside of Dallas.

The mansion, which has five bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms and is described as a "elegant home" with "lush landscaping" on Realtor.com, is perfect for a growing family.

The "dream kitchen," which has a wide island and a Wolf gas stove with six burners, is also the ideal place to throw a big party.

In addition, there's a home theater, a cigar lounge, and roomy living spaces with open floor plans and high ceilings. There's a grotto-style pool and lots of space for outdoor cooking in the backyard, making it an ideal place to party.

There's a sitting space and stately columns at the bathroom entry in the main bedroom.

O'Neal will undoubtedly be overjoyed with the speedy selling of his house, especially considering that he suffered a severe loss on another asset in 2022—a Florida estate that he had to sell for 60% less than what he had initially asked for.

In 2018, that Windermere property went up for sale for an astounding $28 million. It was lowered to $22 million in a few of months. It was priced at $16.5 million in April 2021.

Even though O'Neal eventually sold it for a pitiful $11 million, he still turned a profit on the $3.95 million he bought for the house in 1993.

He’s not the only NBA legend who has had struggles in the real estate market.

Michael Jordan, his longtime on-court rival, has been attempting unsuccessfully to sell his $14,855,000 Chicago mansion since 2012.

One of the greatest big guys in NBA history is O'Neal. Including three consecutive championships with the Los Angeles Lakers, he won four NBA crowns.

His 49 games with 40 points or more over his career attest to his legendary skill on the floor.
