$75 million for a 13 bedroom UNFINISHED mansion?

Much of the US has seen the effects of the slowed economy, from the job market to the housing market.  David Siegel, billionaire and CEO of the time-share firm Westgate Resorts, is no exception.

A year ago, Siegel halted construction on his 90,000 square foot mansion when the effects of the economy took their toll on his industry.  Recently, he put the unfinished mansion on the market for $75 million.


The sprawling mansion, located outside Orlando, has 23 bathrooms, 13 bedrooms, 10 kitchens, three pools, a bowling alley, skating rink and so much more.  Nicknamed "Versailles" by Siegel, the mansion is currently the largest home for sale in the United States.

The home, which is being sold as-is, has no interior walls, carpet or tile.  Do you think Siegel will get anywhere close to his $75 million asking price?
