Actress Rosie O’Donnell has not been able to sell her five million dollar New Jersey mansion despite having it on the market for five years. The former The View host currently lives in an $8 million, four-bedroom penthouse in New Your City.
O’Donnell has been hoping to unload the tony Saddle River mansion since first listing it for $7 million in 2015, the New York Post reported. The left-wing former TV host and actress bought the five-acre property in 2013 for $6.3 million, but she is listing the home at a $400,000 loss and that is if she can even sell it at her current asking price — a sale she has failed to achieve for half a decade.
O’Donnell has unloaded several of her multimillion-dollar properties over the last few years, some at a loss. In 2018, she sold a mansion in New York for $5.1 million, $200,000 less than her original asking price of $5.3 million. She also sold a home in West Palm, Florida, for $5 million that same year.
It may not be surprising that O’Donnell cannot sell a million-dollar property in New Jersey. The Democrat-led state is among the top five worst states for citizens moving away, never to return.
The 2020 North American Van Lines migration report found that New Jersey was among the top states for “out migration” of its populace. Among the other top five states, the moving company found that Illinois was the worst for losing its citizens, followed by New York, California, New Jersey, and Maryland.
O’Donnell has been a vocal left-winger for years, and worked assiduously to depose President Donald Trump. She also pushed the candidacies of the two leftist who ran for U.S. Senate in the recent Georgia runoff elections. The Queer as Folk actress also jumped on board the effort to turn Georgia blue launched by failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate, and left-wing star Stacey Abrams.
