Sarah Jessica Parker’s and Matthew Broderick’s loss on their townhouse totaled a whopping $745,000.
In 2011, the couple purchased the 150-year-old townhouse in Greenwich Village for $18,995,000. Nearly a year later, they decided to place their home up for sale, listing it at $24.99 million. Then, last summer, they decided to lower their asking price to $22 million. There most recent price tag totaled $19.95 million.
Despite their attempts at making a profit off of their home, the couple had to settle for a lower offer of $18.25 million, taking a loss of $745,000. Ouch! And that is not including the money they spent to refurbish the 1846 brick building, located at 20 East 10th Street, between Fifth Avenue and University Place, and the annual taxes which totaled nearly $100,000 per year , according to the New York Times .
