On September 13, 2024, a short‑listed bid turned the 13,332‑sq‑ft Park Place residence into a $7.225 million cash transaction. NewPARA The 36th‑floor tower, once a modest 2,500‑sq‑ft duplex John purchased in 1992 for $925,000, grew into a sky‑mansion after he annexed five adjacent units over three decades, adding custom galleries, a private gym and a massage room. NewPARA Agent Chase Mizell of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty said he set the listing at $4.995 million to spark competition, a tactic that paid off as the final price eclipsed the asking by $2.2 million. Mizell added, “We wanted a quick sale and a strong bid, so we priced aggressively.” NewPARA The buyer, a private Atlanta resident, paid in cash and will take over the home, which includes nine parking spots, six storage rooms and five wine cabinets; the sale also concludes John’s North American base after his last 2022 farewell concert. The property will be transferred to the buyer in early October, after a title search clears the transaction.
