#8: Alan Wilzig’s New York Townhouse
The asking price: $44 million
What it was bought for: $12.65 million
Alan Wilzig, whose life inspired a minor character in The Wolf of Wall Street, has faced an uphill battle selling his extravagant New York townhouse. Originally listed in 2014 with a staggering $44 million price tag, the property continues to sit on the market, testing the prominent businessman’s patience.
Renowned for its cutting-edge design and luxury features, the townhouse has yet to find its match among the city’s elite buyers. Despite its cinematic connection and Wilzig’s high profile, this stunning home remains unsold, proving even the most iconic addresses can be tough to move in New York’s competitive market.
