Trump does not have - nor has he ever had - anything approaching the kind of wealth required to purchase this property. He doesn't even have the crediworthiness necessary to lead a group of borrowers looking to develop it.

instead of spending $1 billion on a hill, one could purchase a TEN MILLION DOLLAR house in every single state of the nation and still have $500 million to generate money to pay the expenses on those 50 houses.



Yeah, that's insane to think about.

And if you want a badass house in Beverly Hills just don't buy a house in 4 states and have a 50 million dollar house there

LINK

"In 2015 Forbes estimated that Trump's real estate holdings were worth about US$3.5 billion with a value of commercial properties totaled at US$1.3 billion, his residential properties at US$410 million, and his club facilities at US$866 million, and an additional US$940 million for properties he has less than 100% stake in.["


3.5 billion = 3.5 times the price of the hill.

Not sure why this was downvoted, there are very few people in the world who could afford to buy it, AND then, develop it. People just don't understand how money works.

I look at it this way, I'm obviously not an OT baller but I could maybe, technically afford to buy a $2-$3 million undeveloped property. But I would have to spending a year or 2 liquidating (at a discount) my entire life to afford the down payment. Yes I might end up with the property at the end, but I would have to live in a tent on the property and since 90% of my remaining income (which would need to include a night and weekend job as a high end male escort) would go to the note and property taxes.

So yes, technically there are a number of people with a net worth of several billion dollars who could technically, afford the property, but in reality its not really possible. To even think about this outright you would need a net worth of at least $10 billion.

See my previous post. This means he might, might be able to liquidate and buy the property, but in reality he has no where near enough money to really afford it.
