NY Jets Antonio Cromartie in Foreclosure
Antonio Cromartie, the NY Jets corner back, has been notified about a potential foreclosure on the home he bought his momma. He became a multi-millionaire in 2006, which is when he purchased this 864-sqft Tallahassee property.
He is being sued for $105,381, which is the amount the bank allegedly says he owes on missed payments. He bought the property for $135,000 at 9.7% interest rate.
The lender says he stopped making payments in 2010 and they are asking for the keys, the mortgage and interest on what he owes.
Last year, Cromartie signed a four-year contract with the NY Jets for $32 million. With the foreclosure, ten children, two more on the way and baby mommas, he might need to negotiate for more money.
