Why Joy Behar’s Asking Price Was Increased
The increase came after the property had reached its $5.95 million asking price.
Behar’s listing agents, Ed Gaetjens and John Wines of Saunders & Associates, told Realtor.com that a nearby home had sold for $11.25 million. They said the sale was one of the factors behind their decision to increase the asking price.
The agents also worked with multiple architects to develop plans for potential renovations. They priced the proposed updates and secured the necessary planning permissions, but no construction was carried out as part of that process.
