She’s a whip-smart executive, but she might take a loss this time.
Meg Whitman, who helped turn eBay into a multibillion-dollar behemoth and later served as CEO at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, has listed her West Hollywood, CA, home for a million dollars less than what she paid for it, according to Dirt.
Whitman snapped up the two-bedroom, two-bath, 2,300-square-foot home in 2018 for $6,500,000. She listed it for her purchase price in 2020, before taking it off the market a few months later. It’s now available for $5,495,000.
The billionaire is currently serving as the U.S. ambassador to Kenya, so she’s spending less time in Southern California.
The lovely all-white condo she’s parting with is on the 24th floor of the Sierra Towers building. Previous residents of the celebrity-filled building have included Cher, Sandra Bullock, Matthew Perry, and Adam Sandler.
