McAfee Founder’s House In Foreclosure


By Daya Baran at May 20, 2009 3 Comments    Share

The sprawling estate built by John McAfee, founder of McAfee Software is in danger of foreclosure. It is expected to be one of the most high-profile foreclosures since the housing crisis began.

McAfee sold the house to Jeffrey Wu, a big time banker who once boasted of having billions but had to take out a loan for $3.2 million to finance the purchase.

The 280 acre property includes a 10,000-square-foot main residence, with an entertainment center, three guest homes, nine cabins, four trout ponds, a horse paddock and unobstructed mountain views.

Seven months after purchasing the property, Wu put it up for sales asking  $8.9 million which he later dropped to $7.5 million.  but there were no takers. In October 2008 the property was on the market for $3.8 million. More>>
