Well, now that infamous quarterback Brett Favre no longer plays for the Green Bay Packers, it’s time to sell, sell, sell.  The former Packer has placed his former Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin home up for sale.

While it is rumored that Farve and his family enjoy a mansion in Mississippi, this estate leaves a little less for the eyes to goggle at.  With four bedrooms, moderate space and a rather nice recreational room, this estate must have been more a football season home for Farve and wife Deanna. 

The home is listed at a meager $475K.

Estate Of the Day: Another Luxury Resort Slated for Montenegro

October 10, 2008 | Posted by Allison as Estate of the Day at 8:00 am | Comments »

As if Montenegro didn’t have enough luxury resorts already, the seaside destination is being slated ror yet another luxury resort.

The proposed Royal Montenegro Grand Resort will be more grand as anything yet on Montenegro.  The luxury resort will feature a five star 220 room hotel with conference center, casino, nightclub, yacht club, spa and condos and villas. 

The project is already underway with a date of 2010 for opening, though I strongly suspect we’re gonna see that pushed back quite a bit.
