Scandal-tainted and publicly shamed cyclist Lance Armstrong sold one Austin (TX) compound for an unknown amount and purchased another for $4,340,000 that comprises four structures and 12,000 square feet of modern living space and private access to Lake Austin by way of an exceptionally long steel and ipe wood cabled bridge.

Although most reports say that she still plans to move back her her Canadian hometown of Ladysmith (near Vancouver) but, after just about a month on the open market at $7.75 million, Tinseltown bombshell Pam Anderson has reportedly taken her newly and expensively renovated house in the famed guard-gated Malibu Colony off the market because there were just "'too many people interested...it scared me.'" Really, Pam? Too much interest? That sounds reasonable. Anyhoo... As of three o'clock p.m. today—18 April, 2013—the property remains an active listing on both the MLS and the listing agent's website.

She may be only 23 years old but sweet faced and occasionally vengeful country music queen Taylor Swift has bought and sold more houses than the average millionaire in an entire lifetime.* She currently owns a small compound in Beverly Hills and in Nashville she has an oddly decorated duplex penthouse plus a large house with an impressive Greek Revival entry portico that some say is where her parents live. Last year the singer/songwriter spent millions on a water front house next door to her teenage then-boyfriend Conor Kennedy's famous family compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts.
Now comes word that Miss Swift is house hunting in Rhode Island where she was photographed touring a massive water front mansion with a price tag of more than $20 million.
*Your Mama does not, of course, have any actual statistics on how many private homes an average millionaire—whatever that means—buys and sells in a lifetime.

Yet another of the "real housewives" from Bravos Real Housewives super-franchise faces foreclosure on her large suburban mansion. This time it's New Jersey's Jacqueline Laurita who, as it turns out, also owes a lot of back taxes. We're sure there's a vague explanation forthcoming about how all this financial ugliness is nothing more than a soon-to-be-cleared-up misunderstanding.

They've yet to unload their quixotically configured Upper East Side triplex maisonette but David Duchovney's semi-estranged wife Tea Leoni has already dropped $5,120,000 on a bachelorette pad—also with a somewhat funky layout—on Manhattan's Upper West Side.

Months after every real estate gossip on the planet relayed rumors and reports about pop star turned apparel mogul Jessica Simpson buying Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne's tangentially Cape Cod style mansion in Hidden Hills, the L.A. Times revealed the sale price was exactly $11,500,000, almost a million dollars less than the $12,388,500 that the rock-n-roll royals paid for the 11,000 square foot house in 2007.

Ajit Khubani, the South Florida-based sick-rich creator of the "As Seen on TV" empire, spent a record breaking $34 million for a pair of John Pawson designed triplex penthouses atop Ian Schrager's (the cumbersomely monikered) The Residences at the Miami Beach Edition. Mister Khubani allegedly out-bid Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick. So goes the real estate life of the super-rich.
