Donald Trump's childhood home in New York -- already sold twice since 2016 -- is back on the market.
But this time, the real estate agency is appealing directly to the president's fans to buy the house for the unprecedented price of $3 million and offer it to Trump as a gift.
Paramount Realty agency on Tuesday launched a fundraiser on the crowdfunding site GoFundMe, calling on Trump fans to contribute towards the goal of reaching $3 million.
If the money is raised, the house will be given to the outgoing president.
The agency had recently tried to sell the house, located in the affluent Jamaica Estates neighborhood in New York's Queens borough, for $3 million at classic auctions, but without success.
But then they came up with the crowdfunding strategy, which has "never been done before," Paramount real estate agent Misha Haghani told AFP.
"It is more likely that one million people who love Trump would each give three dollars, rather than a wealthy buyer giving three million," he said.
Based on his real estate criteria, the mock Tudor five bedroom, four bedroom house -- where Trump lived until age four, when he moved to a more affluent home nearby -- is barely worth more than $1 million.
But its "intangible value" makes it "unique," Haghani said...

FYI
Yeah man there is one side of one borough that is safe from all the NYC insanity.
And that’s because we have an 18 dollar bridge separating us from Brooklyn and the slowest ferry in the world separating us from Manhattan.
And even then, the ferry lands SO FAR from the South Shore that they would just end up wandering in obama’s sons’ lands.
Buy it and shove it up Andy Cuomo’s ass, sideways.
Trump doesn’t want to live in New York - and who can blame him.
It would be a wonderful gesture to our president and one he would welcome in January 2025.
Retarded.
No Gold leaf present...
This realtor’s obviously a guy who thinks Trump supporters are really as stupid as the media claims them to be.
Real estate is a nice gig if you can make that kind of money selling homes. Maybe he’s doing that because he can’t sell it otherwise. Too many dems in NY would not want to buy it and he’s looking to make a buck somehow.
WHY does anyone think that Trump would ever want to go back into NY given the current political climate? They’d probably have him arrested the minute he set foot in the state.
You do not have much of a grasp of how the five boroughs are laid out and who lives where and what the different parts of the boroughs are named and which are actually quite nice and safe.
But continue to spout
I get a kick out of it :)
How’s Austin hangin??
And the other million large cities that are harder left than Manhattan and reside in SOUTHERN STATES?
Texas didn’t win by 40 points bro.
6.
That’s hardly a state that is on the same page.
In fact, MOST southern states would have to fight their internal civil war before fighting outsiders.
Too many southerners live in a dream world of what once was.
And that’s a dangerous thing
buona notte
Those were my thoughts ...
We should send the realtor a Trumpy Bear ...
If had any sentimental value, Trump would have already purchased it.
The home could be restored to its original state for historical purposes. But there is no guarantee it would be left standing once fascists find out where it is located.
Say what you want about Texas, but at least our Chipotles don’t have Chihuahua sized rats biting the employees! (Did you see that post?)
If it meant something to Trump, he would own it already.
Some may see this as a nice gesture, but I’m not sure it
would be as big a plus to ‘the Donald’ as some might think.
Right now he needs people to support the effort to bring
this election and it’s eccentricities before the SCOTUS.
That’s where I’ve put my money.
Someone should tell the yahoos at Yahoo that we are Donald Trump supporters, not “fans.”
The guy just thinks he found a way to make himself a big commission. He needs it. No one wants to buy a house in NY.
If Trump wanted it he’d have bought it by now.
