Fuld eyes $32m from sale of luxury New York home

Six months after selling his $13m (€9.4m) Florida mansion to his wife for just $100, former Lehman Brothers chief Dick Fuld is seeking to offload his luxury New York home for 50% more than he acquired it in 2007, according to a report in The Daily Telegraph, London.

Despite the continuing fall in US property prices, Fuld hopes to sell the 16-room apartment for $32m - nearly $11m more than the $21m he paid for it.
