frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted September 10, 2012 God I wanna cry, someone lend me 2,9 million please? It is a gorgeaus piece of work, it reminds of Nick: A classy guy without the stupid "hey look how cool and rich I am" attitude. Can you imagine how his house in Sweden will look like? I know it is not a castle but seriously it is better and so well crafted looking at this hell I think my parents could put our house in their easily and it still would have enough room left. Can't believe it sold after just some days, the buyer must be one very rich person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toby91_ca 620 Report post Posted September 10, 2012 It sold just a couple of days after it was listed back earlier this summer. Didn't last. Report suggested it sold for less than the $2.9 million value after being on the market for 21 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleepwalker 512 Report post Posted September 10, 2012 what a beautiful home, damn you drug dealers and your 2.9 million in cash! Drug dealers. Haha, that was my first thought too. Who buys a house in suburban Detroit in 2012 for $3mil cash? Though if it is drug dealers, they are probably not too happy that the media is making a point to report that they paid cash. The Feds are probably already looking into it after reading the news stories saying that, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think they meant actual physical cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LidstromIsASuperhero 29 Report post Posted September 11, 2012 I seem to remember from class that the limit for a literal cash transaction was $10k without authorities being notified so yeah, something is up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted September 11, 2012 Like Toby said, it just means they didn't finance it with a mortgage. It's likely someone who just sold their multi-million dollar home to buy Lidstrom's, unless they have that much lying around in a bank account. Either way, it doesn't mean they showed up with wheelbarrows full of hundreds, just that they didn't finance it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

55fan 5,133 Report post Posted September 11, 2012 I think I'd be scouring nooks and crannies to see if they left anything behind. Can you imagine finding something of value? Or even if it was just sentimental value, like one of the boys' baby books, you could still call him up and tell him you have something of his and you'd like to return it and have a nice chat with him.
