Former NBA Player Robert Swift Refuses to Leave Foreclosed Home

Robert_Swift

Robert Swift, a former NBA star, was drafted in 2004 right out of high school. His NBA career was short and so are his living arrangements. His Seattle home has been foreclosed on, and Swift is refusing to leave. Swift is not taking care of the home well either.

The outside of the property is not maintained, and surrounded by trash (beer and Four Loco cans galore). There are buckets of water sitting with trash inside of it. The cars in the driveway seem to not have moved in a very long time.

If Swift is not out of the home by the end of February, he will be evicted by the sheriff’s office.

NBA Allen Iverson’s Atlanta Mansion Foreclosed

Allen_Iverson

In Dec., we learned that Allen Iverson’s Atlanta mansion was getting ready to be placed in a foreclosure auction. He defaulted on the $1.2 million mortgage, which caused it to go into foreclosure. The home is valued around $4.5 million. Iverson did not let go of the house without a fight.

In fact, he did delay the foreclosure auction until now. As of yesterday, the bank purchased the Atlanta mansion for $2.5 million (via TMZ). If that is not bad enough, during his divorce case this week, the judge basically called him the worst dad in the world.

This NBA superstar is not so super anymore.
