Ex-Louisville Football Coach Bobby Petrino Close to Selling His Kentucky Home

Tyler Smith/Getty Images; realtor.com

There’s some positive news for former University of Louisville football coach Bobby Petrino. His Louisville, KY, home—on the market for $1.45 million—is pending sale just one month after he listed it.

Petrino, who was let go by the Cardinals in November after seven straight losses, was able to arrange a quick sale three weeks after his unceremonious dismissal.

To accelerate a deal, he listed the home for less than the $1.69 million he paid for it in 2014, the same year he was hired for his second stint as head coach for the team. His loss will be assuaged by the $14.1 million the university paid out on his remaining contract.

Listing price aside, we can see what led the home to be snapped up in a hurry.

Located just steps from the Lake Forest Country Club, the estate was built in 2009. The grand foyer features travertine flooring and barrel-vaulted ceiling, opening to the living room with a fireplace and built-ins. 

The dining room includes a bar, and the chef’s kitchen is equipped with a granite island and eat-in area. It’s adjacent to a family room with a fireplace. There’s also a wood-paneled office covered with sports memorabilia, a recurring theme throughout the house.

The 10,416-square-foot home has six bedrooms, including a spacious master suite with a sitting area and patio. It sits on a half-acre lot, which includes a pool, covered outdoor area, and fire pit.

The big score is the lower level, which features a stone fireplace in the family room which flows into a rec room with a wet bar and wine room with humidor, along with a media room and a gym. Too tired to climb the stairs? Take the elevator. Or take a seat in the lower-level family room, which also boasts a fireplace.

The 57-year-old Petrino also spent time as the head man in Arkansas and Western Kentucky. Football fans will likely remember the bridges he torched on his way out of his lone season as an NFL head coach with the Atlanta Falcons.

Claire Alagia with Wakefield Reutlinger Realtors holds the listing.

Haute Homes: The Diverse Luxury Digs of America’s Priciest Neighborhoods

realtor.com

Think you know how the 1% lives? Blinged-out mansions with gold errythang, elaborate custom pool grotto, and maids and butlers scurrying down long, marble-tiled hallways? Sure, places like that exist, but the reality is, what’s considered the crème de la crème of real estate varies from state to state.

Recently, the realtor.com® data team crunched the numbers and pinpointed the most expensive ZIP codes in every state in America. Some were neighborhoods in big cities, some were entire towns in themselves. The list also took us on a fascinating tour of the best that each state in the nation has to offer: mansions set on rolling, emerald lawns in Greenwich, CT; historic brownstones in Boston; and picturesque horse farms in the suburbs of Louisville, KY.

We wanted to take a closer look at what’s on the market in those swanky areas, so we sifted through our listings. Whether you’re lucky enough to have deep pockets you can turn out to buy, or you just want to check out what luxury means in your state—and others—here are 12 homes for sale right now in America’s most expensive neighborhoods.

There’s also a 30-car courtyard, pool and pool house, two two-story guesthouses, a tennis court, and jogging trail that circles the entire property. If that’s not enough room for you and the fam, there’s another lot available to expand.

Case Study: Perfection Builders Experiences Exponential Growth After after Partnering with Franchise

Kansas Company Becomes Major Player in State after adding Epcon Homes to Suite of Offerings

Scott Lehner kept books for a home builder during college, gaining valuable insight into the home building industry. After college, he spent about 18 years as an accountant and investment banker before getting involved in building insulated concrete forms (ICF) homes. In 2004, he merged his business with the business of a talented trim carpenter and project manager, Jason Ronk, to create Perfection Builders.

Epcon Franchise Builders Scott Lehner and Jason Ronk

Co-Owners, Perfection Builders, Wichita, Kansas

Epcon Franchise Builders since 2007

Number of Homes built before joining Epcon: 120

Epcon Homes built since 2007: 400

Epcon Communities developed or in the process of completion: 6

Expected 2017 growth: 3 new communities (2 in Louisville, KY)

Background

Scott Lehner – Finance and accounting

Jason Ronk – Project management and trim carpentry

Lehner and Ronk combined their knowledge and experience to become residential builders in the greater Wichita, Kansas market. They started with spec homes, eventually expanding to add custom homes as well. The pair built their company by delivering ranch style basement homes, as is typical for their market, at a steady clip of 30 to 40 every year. In a competitive market like Wichita, they knew they needed to specialize and capitalize on a targeted market like Baby Boomers to continue their growth.

Not satisfied to rest on their laurels, Lehner and Ronk researched ways of expanding their product mix so that it would have greater appeal to the 55+ demographic, as well as a way of distinguishing themselves from the average home builder. They turned to franchising in 2007. Since then, Lehner and Ronk have added Epcon Communities to their business, and by utilizing the franchisor’s proven systems and resources, they have grown from a small and successful residential builder to one of the largest home builders in their state. The pair is also expanding into Louisville, Kentucky with the development of two new Epcon Communities.

The right target market

Lehner and Ronk wanted to grow their home building company by appealing to the increasing demographic of home buyers over the age of 55. In 2016, there were almost 75 million Baby Boomers, who accounted for 70 percent of American disposable income, according to Nielsen. Targeting this specific demographic was the growth opportunity Perfection Builders needed.

Building homes that appeal to Baby Boomers comes with a few unique requirements, though. This group is looking for ranch-style homes with features like open concept living areas, outdoor patios, natural light and sufficient storage space. The community aspect is especially important to them. In addition to some provided exterior home maintenance, Baby Boomers are looking for amenities like walking trails, clubhouses and fitness centers.

Partnering with a franchise like Epcon gave Lehner and Ronk immediate access to a selection of proven floorplans and guidelines to build communities Baby Boomers want to live in. The limited number of copyrighted floorplans with many add-on options allowed for a higher sales velocity than custom home building, too, which in turn allowed them to develop communities on shorter cycles.

Proven systems and credibility

Building a house is not rocket science. Many can do it. But creating a business focused on building houses that people want to buy? That’s an entirely different story. For Lehner and Ronk, the tools and guidelines—plus the additional name recognition and credibility—a franchise could provide made entering a new home building market much easier.

A franchise business model offers a turnkey approach to home building. Lehner and Ronk already knew how to build houses with decades of construction experience between them. The package of sales and marketing support, including virtual tours, 3D renderings and more, helped Lehner and Ronk jump right into their new market. Epcon’s systemization also shaved months off the building process for individual units, allowing Perfection Builders to close the home and reinvest gains quickly.

“It would take us I don’t know how many years to develop the package Epcon provides,” Lehner said. “I don’t think most builders have the resources, both from a financial and manpower perspective, to develop and implement a system like you could put in place if you follow the Epcon way.”

Using a community-driven system also changed Lehner and Ronk’s business. With a section of land set for development, an entire community could be pre-planned. Lehner and Ronk focused on beautiful entrances and landscaping to ensure buyers are captivated from the moment they arrive. They also brought their sales team in-house instead of using outside real estate companies, further streamlining their business.

Epcon’s ranch-style homes appeal to buyers in the 55+ market, a lucrative business segment for homebuilding companies like Perfection Builders.

“You bet Epcon helped us get into a much faster pace of home building,” Lehner said. “They helped us become more of a vertically integrated operation so now we’re not just home builders, we’re a land development company, a building company and real estate brokers all in one. Epcon’s sales and support staff helped us get here.”

Targeting a growing and wealthy demographic combined with the processes and credibility Epcon provides has allowed Lehner and Ronk to grow their business significantly since 2007. Perfection Builders went from building about 30 homes a year to more than four times that. When Perfection Builders started, they were building 80 percent spec homes and 20 percent custom homes. Now, their business is 75 percent Epcon homes. Most of those are pre-sold, too.

“We’re as efficient now as we’ve ever been,” Lehner said. “We’re lucky to have the right people, the right product, the right areas and the right systems. It just doesn’t get any better than it is right now. We went from being a small middle-of-the-road builder to one of the top builders in the state now because of Epcon. What’s more, we feel like we’re just getting started.”

Mystery Mannequin Mansion in Texas Tops the Week’s Most Popular Homes

realtor.com

This week’s most popular homes on realtor.com® offer up some true surprises once you peer inside them.

For starters, the top home was shared all over the web thanks to some of the oddest decor choices we’ve ever seen.

From the outside, the Richmond, TX, residence is conventional enough. Indoors, there’s a jarring jumble of artwork, tchotchkes, and … mannequins. Yes, the life-size dolls are visible everywhere, hanging from the ceiling, greeting you in the hallway, sitting at the kitchen island, and even mowing the lawn. Shudder. The home, owned by an artist who lives among her projects, is available for $1,275,000.

This week’s runner-up is a familiar face: The Palazzo di Amore in Beverly Hills, CA, was a staple of our weekly countdown a couple of years ago, when it was priced at $195 million. Now up for sale at a relatively bargain-basement price of $129 million, it’s raising its regal head yet again.

But we truly loved our fourth-place finisher, a home in Omaha, NE, that includes a secret Batman-themed pole right out of the 1960s TV show. Slide down to the Batcave featuring a bar, TV, and Batman decor—all for only $575,000. Ka-pow!

We’re not equipped with a bat pole, but you can simply slide your cursor down the page for the full list of this week’s most popular properties.

In the understatement of the year, listing agent Arline Bolin told us, “It is a special house.”

Price: $129 million Why it’s here: The Palazzo di Amore came back on the market this spring with its price slashed by an eye-popping $66 million and still made our most expensive listing at the time. While not exactly a steal, the glorious property is capturing interest and certainly offers a lot for its money.

“Being on 25 acres, you won’t find this anywhere in the city,” says listing agent Stacy Gottula.

Beverly Hills, CA

realtor.com

———

1. 4302 Colony West Dr, Richmond, TX

Price: $1,275,000 Why it’s here: This artist’s home has set the web aflame. It’s no wonder! The rooms are stuffed from floor to ceiling with art, paintings, and collectibles. And shockingly, there are mannequins everywhere, walking on the ceiling, watching TV, and standing in the hallway.

“It’s just weird,” says David Thelen, who’s with Keller Williams Premier Realty, who posted the odd listing on his own website but is not affiliated with the home. While the clutter would drive a home stager to drink, the artwork will disappear when the owner sells the house.

Ex-Louisville Football Coach Bobby Petrino Close to Selling His Kentucky Home

Tyler Smith/Getty Images; realtor.com

There’s some positive news for former University of Louisville football coach Bobby Petrino. His Louisville, KY, home—on the market for $1.45 million—is pending sale just one month after he listed it.

Petrino, who was let go by the Cardinals in November after seven straight losses, was able to arrange a quick sale three weeks after his unceremonious dismissal.

To accelerate a deal, he listed the home for less than the $1.69 million he paid for it in 2014, the same year he was hired for his second stint as head coach for the team. His loss will be assuaged by the $14.1 million the university paid out on his remaining contract.

Listing price aside, we can see what led the home to be snapped up in a hurry.

Located just steps from the Lake Forest Country Club, the estate was built in 2009. The grand foyer features travertine flooring and barrel-vaulted ceiling, opening to the living room with a fireplace and built-ins. 

The dining room includes a bar, and the chef’s kitchen is equipped with a granite island and eat-in area. It’s adjacent to a family room with a fireplace. There’s also a wood-paneled office covered with sports memorabilia, a recurring theme throughout the house.

The 10,416-square-foot home has six bedrooms, including a spacious master suite with a sitting area and patio. It sits on a half-acre lot, which includes a pool, covered outdoor area, and fire pit.

The big score is the lower level, which features a stone fireplace in the family room which flows into a rec room with a wet bar and wine room with humidor, along with a media room and a gym. Too tired to climb the stairs? Take the elevator. Or take a seat in the lower-level family room, which also boasts a fireplace.

The 57-year-old Petrino also spent time as the head man in Arkansas and Western Kentucky. Football fans will likely remember the bridges he torched on his way out of his lone season as an NFL head coach with the Atlanta Falcons.

Claire Alagia with Wakefield Reutlinger Realtors holds the listing.

But we truly loved our fourth-place finisher, a home in Omaha, NE, that includes a secret Batman-themed pole right out of the 1960s TV show. Slide down to the Batcave featuring a bar, TV, and Batman decor—all for only $575,000. Ka-pow!

We’re not equipped with a bat pole, but you can simply slide your cursor down the page for the full list of this week’s most popular properties.

9. 10979 Chalon Rd, Los Angeles, CA

Price: $100 million Why it’s here: Built on spec, this massive Bel Air mansion is as spectacular as it is expensive. It was last week’s priciest new listing, and has everything a buyer needs for luxe living: 12 bedroom suites, multiple decks, five bars, a two-lane bowling alley, theater, wine cellar, and even a putting green. In the understatement of the year, listing agent Arline Bolin told us, “It is a special house.”

2. 9505 Lania Lane, Beverly Hills, CA 

Price: $129 million Why it’s here: The Palazzo di Amore came back on the market this spring with its price slashed by an eye-popping $66 million and still made our most expensive listing at the time.

1. 4302 Colony West Dr, Richmond, TX

Price: $1,275,000 Why it’s here: This artist’s home has set the web aflame. It’s no wonder! The rooms are stuffed from floor to ceiling with art, paintings, and collectibles. And shockingly, there are mannequins everywhere, walking on the ceiling, watching TV, and standing in the hallway.

“It’s just weird,” says David Thelen, who’s with Keller Williams Premier Realty, who posted the odd listing on his own website but is not affiliated with the home. While the clutter would drive a home stager to drink, the artwork will disappear when the owner sells the house.
