House Porn Extravaganza: The 100 Most Expensive Homes In Dallas, 2009

Get ready for major financial house porn: the D Magazine print product is out with the lowdown of who owns Dallas’ 100 most expensive homes. (I kind of gave you a tease about this a few months ago, suggesting we send these people thank-you notes for  paying the highest property taxes in Dallas County.) Well, as you can probably guess, that list is already outdated. Number four on the list, the $28,742,300 home of software titan Lawrence Lacerte at 5323 Park Lane, is wrong. Last Tuesday the home changed hands from Lacerte to Kelsey Warren… and that Dallas County appraisal is not too far off from the home’s confidential selling price. The buyer, Kelsey Warren, took out a $14,000,000 loan, paid cash for the rest.  On a $14,000,000 home mortgage, the monthly payments are about $103,000 per month, not counting taxes and insurance.

Can you just imagine writing a check that hefty?

    Wick and his Igor, Tim Rogers, are constantly complaining about the state of journalism in Dallas because they think they are a competitor of DMN, so then they offer this drivel.

    Um, thanks. Now you can tell me that I don’t have to read this blog.

    That was fun but I would like to see the same list including Tarrant, Collin and Denton Counties – you know “the metroplex”.

    Hey #101,
    Isn’t this called Dallas Dirt, not Metroplex Dirt?!?

  • roger

    Haha – number 60 on the list is just a one acre lot! – DCAD value of 9.3 million

    @Will – true enough. I wonder if that url is taken…
