Inside stunning $27million mansion with six-car garage being sold for BITCOIN

A STUNNING mansion is on sale in Texas and the owner is expecting Bitcoin as payment.

You’ll need a lot of the cryptocurrency to make a purchase though as the home is listed for $27.5million (£20million).

The impressive Bayou City mansion belongs to Houston trial lawyer Tony Buzbee.

Buzbee, a one-time mayoral candidate, will also be accepting other payments for the property.

His one-acre brick mansion is located in the fancy River Oaks neighborhood.

Part of its online advert states: “One-acre resort-like grounds filled with lush lawns, a pond, herb garden, boxwoods, and a sparkling pool and spa.

“Savant and Lutron controls, generator, security, integrated audio.

“Gated drive and a six-car garage. Brick facade, slate roof and exterior lighting add to the extraordinary curb appeal.

“Close to River Oaks Country Club, Memorial Park, Galleria, Downtown and Energy Corridor. Bitcoin accepted as a form of payment.”

It’s thought the home was previously bought with cash.

Given the fluctuating Bitcoin market, buying a property in cryptocurrency could backfire on the seller or buyer.

Last last year one Bitcoin was worth around $67,500 (£49,800) but today it’s valued at around $43,415 (£32,036).

The current exchange rate means Buzbee’s mansion would cost about 625 Bitcoin.

Back in November, it would have only cost 407 Bitcoin.

The high-risk nature of cryptocurrency means it’s unlikely to become a popular form of payment for properties any time soon.
