President Trump’s childhood home in Queens is a tough sell. After being listed for $2.9 million and floated as an Airbnb rental, it was slated for a Nov. 14 auction. But the auction has been postponed indefinitely — because no one who is interested has enough dough to make a bid. Misha Haghani, of Paramount Realty USA, tells The Post the Jamaica Estates house where Trump spent the first four years of his life is off the auction block for now so prospective buyers — which include Trump’s critics — have time to accumulate funds via crowdsourcing sites. “We postponed the auction to give campaigns a chance to raise money,” Haghani says.

The best way to celebrate the legacy of “Gone With the Wind” just might be buying the house that inspired its iconic Southern estate. Twelve Oaks, located in Covington, Georgia, is up for auction, and fans and buyers alike will not believe the updated transformation of the Hollywood home in real life. “I’m from the area, and it has been my favorite home here for as long as I can remember,” the seller, Nicole Munn, told “Good Morning America.” “It was in really bad shape -- over thirty busted windows, the landscaping was overgrown and it was a mess. I wanted to see it be beautiful again.” The house was chosen to be the...

HNA Group is putting up for sale a pair of hotels, one each in Shanghai and in Hainan province, as the financially-troubled mainland fights to stay solvent. The two hospitality properties, both of which are fully completed and operational, could bring in a total of over RMB 2.7 billion ($393 million) for the cash-starved parent company of China’s Hainan Airlines. During the last week, the company has listed both the Renaissance Shanghai Pudong Hotel and the Crowne Plaza Resort Sanya Bay, along with other Hainan resort assets, for sale on government-run asset exchanges in China, a move which is often a final step before a transaction is announced. HNA is asking RMB 803 million for...

Most salary surveys will tell you that the average salary for a real estate agent in the U.S. is just $39,800 a year. What most real estate agents don't realize is that it takes a lot more work to sell those 20 cheaper homes than it does those two expensive homes. Make sure people know that you broker luxury real estate because if they don't know, they won't hire you. If you jumped into real estate to get rich, you might have picked the wrong profession. At least, that’s what salary pollsters will tell you. Most salary surveys will tell you that the average salary for a real estate agent in the U.S. is just $39,800 a year. That’s the average — so...
