Okay, the headline is slightly disingenuous: Iranian-American home developer Fred Milani is putting up his 16,500 square-foot replica White House located in Atlanta for sale on account of the economic downturn. Asking price? $9.88 million.

This person estimates the actual White House (132 rooms, 55,000 sq ft, 18 acres, 16 family-guest rooms, an underground bunker, 3 kitchens, 3 elevators, and 28 fireplaces) is worth today $308,058,000. It was originally built at a cost of $232,372. Slaves weren't unionized back then.
