5. Madison Ave Townhouse
Location: Manhattan, NY
For sale: $72 million
Monthly mortgage: $314,309/ month
This 7-story Madison Avenue townhouse first appeared on Zillow's "Most Expensive Homes" list in Sept. 2010. But, with an unchanged asking price of $72 million and no buyer in sight, it has claimed a returning spot. Listed in the Upper East Side real estate market, this townhouse contains 12,000 sq ft, 10 bedrooms, a central staircase, an elevator, and carries a $314,309 mortgage payment (based on a 20 percent down payment of $14.4 million with a 3.94 percent 30-year fixed mortgage rate).
Apparently you can get more from the Madison Ave townhouse's mortgage than the Woolworth mansion... but not much. $315,000 can buy a 500-sq ft, 1-bedroom apartment:
