Previously unnamed, the buyer of Donald Trump’s $100 million oceanfront estate is Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, according to reports.
Rybolovlev is said to have acquired his fortune in the fertilizer industry and has no plans to relocate his primary residence to the United States, commenting to news sources that this latest purchase is merely an investment.
Trump bought the property four years ago at auction for $41.4 million and poured $25 million into renovations, producing a 62,000 square foot estate with nine bedrooms, conservatory, ballroom, art gallery, two guest houses and 48-car garage.
Rybolovlev was listed at number 59 on the Forbes list of billionaires, estimated at a worth of $12.8 billion.
