Michael Jordan‘s $14 million Chicago home is back in the headlines after languishing 12 years on the market.
The 61-year-old NBA legend initially put the sprawling mansion up for sale in 2012, with a sky-high asking price of $29 million. He lowered it to $16 million after year.
In 2015, the price was reduced again—this time in an apparent bid to remind shoppers of the sporting significance within the Highland Park, IL, property’s walls.
The new sticker price? $14,855,000, in honor of Jordan’s longtime jersey number, 23. When added, 1, 4, 8, 5, and 5 total 23.
But that maneuver failed to broaden the appeal of the property, which has remained on the market at that price for the past nine years.
Michael Jordan’s home is at the center of a TikTok scandal after a user claimed to have broken in and filmed it.
The NBA legend’s home has been on the market since 2012.
In the TikTok video, which has since been deleted, the “urban explorer” claims the Chicago home is in a state of disrepair.
The property was largely abandoned, until a so-called “urban explorer” claimed to have broken into the home in January, then released a video that was allegedly filmed inside.
The footage sparked a surge of interest on TikTok. Representatives for Jordan insisted that the video was not taken inside his home. Realtor.com® has contacted Jordan’s spokesperson for additional comment.
The urban explorer, who goes by “Decaying Midwest” on TikTok, claimed to have found interiors that are far less appealing than the grandeur and luxury that one might expect from a high-profile property.
The original video has since been deleted, but several fan accounts have reposted the footage of a flooded basketball court, the logo of Jordan’s longtime team, Chicago Bulls, at its center.
The kitchen in the video—which has not been verified as having been taken inside Jordan’s home—showed a similar state of disrepair and what appear to be incomplete renovations.
The footage shows cupboard doors left on the floor, water bottles abandoned on the countertops, and pieces of wood scattered around the room.
The unverified TikTok video featured footage of a run-down kitchen.

Jordan’s property listing showcases several stunning living spaces.
There are nods to the basketball legend throughout the property.
The video also revealed some attractive features, including a stunning sauna, grand living spaces, elegant chandeliers, and a luxe home theater.
For Jordan, there’s a silver lining to this video stunt: His property is back in the headlines and, perhaps, the attention of homebuyers. But an eventual sale might not be a big worry for the NBA legend, who owns the Charlotte Hornets.
Jordan has an estimated net worth of $3.2 billion, according to Forbes. Much of that fortune came from Jordan selling his majority stake in the Hornets for $3 billion in summer 2023.
Jordan also owns several homes across the U.S., including a rental property in Utah, a penthouse in Chicago, and a lakehouse in his home state of North Carolina.
