Former MF Global CEO Jon Corzine has finally unloaded roughly $3 million worth of assets—a two-bedroom penthouse apartment in Hoboken that went on sale in January and was sold to an unknown buyer earlier this month, according to a report.
The 2,400-square-foot apartment sold for $2.8 million, 14 percent less than the $3.26 million the former New Jersey governor paid for the property in November 2008, Bloomberg News reports. The penthouse also sold for less than its $2.9 million asking price when it was first put on the market at the beginning of the year.
The buyer, who paid in cash, is listed simply as POJ Holdings LLC, according to a broker with Prudential Castle Point Realty in Hoboken who wasn’t involved in the deal, which was completed May 7.
The apartment is located in Toll Brothers’ Maxwell Place complex and features floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the Hudson River and the Manhattan skyline as well as Viking kitchen appliances and a Jacuzzi in the master bathroom. It has a $1,700-a-month maintenance fee, and property taxes in 2011 were $38,003, making Corzine one of Hoboken’s top 10 taxpayers, according to the Prudential broker who spoke to Bloomberg.
