He may have played for Atlanta, but like any good Texan, Sanders has his city-slicker place, a coolio Dallas penthouse listed for $7.5 million, and a $21 million ranch in Prosper, Tex., about 45 minutes north of Dallas.
Gallery: See Photos of Deion Sanders Texas Homes
The Prosper Ranch:
Deion's 109-acre ranch home boasts 29,122 square feet, has a two-story entry, banquet dining 
The home is on the market -- still -- for $21 million. The Collin County Appraisal District shows a slightly different value: $5,410,602. Hint: Get the mineral rights.
The Penthouse:
This James Cheng-designed unit is in one of Dallas's first LEED-certified residential condos, the Azure. Sanders has it on the market for $7.5 million. Looks like he bought it lock, stock and barrel, Suite 3002, in 2009. The 5025 square feet include some balcony space. And this is a two-story condo, with a rooftop terrace and lounge with bar and full bath (so nice for guests, keeps your own potty pristine) and a private elevator to it all -- rooftop private pool, roof garden and fireplace. There is also a two-story living room, a terrace lounge that features a bar, an outdoor fireplace and a full bath.

I like the glass and marble master bathroom, the marble sunken tub looks quite inviting. Deion recent selection to be inducted into the Hall of Fame will undoubtly help with this sale for some loyal Dallas Cowboy fan.

Reply by Elwyn - February 10th 2011 @ 8:18AMAssum and beautiful home! I'm so glad this great man of God is bless with great prosperity and a beautiful wife. Although I pray one day she will get saved. However, wishing you more abundance in life.
Keep on evangelizing for the Lord as you will see your great reward.
Yours in Christ Love,
Elwyn Manego

by Jem - February 10th 2011 @ 10:15AMWhy does it seem like so many of the rich are putting their homes up for sale? This is not exactly the best market for selling right now. I think I would enjoy the pent house though, just not the price tag. Http://Bit.Ly/freebiesdaily has some great ways you can save with samples and coupons so that you can afford what you want.
by MissBoss1222 - February 10th 2011 @ 2:08PMToooo funny LOL!!!!
by loren - February 10th 2011 @ 9:51AMThe biggest thing in Texas is property taxes. They have to be huge on these properties.
Reply by WminPhoenix - February 10th 2011 @ 10:27AMThe only reason "Freon" Deion got saved was to protect his wealth. The old "devil made me do it" excuse is a winner for stopping divorce proceedings. Same thing with the 4-time Super Bowl loser, Jim Kelly. He bedded every women he could but when his wife caught him, whoops, Jesus time!
Phony hypocrates!
Elwyn...god has nothing to do with his 2 houses or all his money...god is not rich he is a figment of your imagination!!!!

by D - February 10th 2011 @ 11:23AMAlice-You are pathetic. I’m painting a picture of you. You are probably covered with tattoos. This is much different than a few tattoos. You live in a freak-show city like Las Vegas or San Francisco. You are either a Scientologist, or one of those people who believes aliens created the earth. I have many friends who are what THEY refer to as mainstream Atheists. They do not bash other folks’ religions. They have no trouble saying Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukah. They are fine with people expressing belief in GOD. Really nice and practical, with no insecurities like you. Most mainstream Atheists are fine with people going to church, and saying prayers with no need to slam others. You are not a typical Atheist like them. They are good people. You are one of the above. You are a brainwashed alien worshipper.
by Goober - February 10th 2011 @ 12:25PMDefending Alice...Way to go Alice, at least I have one sane, rational thinking human on this earth with me. "God" hasn't done jack S....We can see by all the bad things on earth, including the children getting raped by 'god's disciples', children dying painful premature deaths, people suffering and so on and so on, and so on....
They believe in a book of fairy tales that is so self contradicting it basically neutralizes everything is says at some point. And to think they call you "brainwashed" is the epitome of the pot calling the kettle black.
And maybe they shouldn't be calling you names, because their "good" book says all kinds of thing against that type of action.
All of you don't really want to know about him,I PLAY WITH AND KNOW HIM VERY WELL...........
Reply by JackBQuik - February 10th 2011 @ 12:02PMHmmm, very interesting. Deion did not buy these trappings during his hey day football career or non-impressive baseball career "try". That penthouse was purchased in 2009. While the asking price is 7.5 million, since he purchased it so recent, I'm sure he had to have paid at least 6 mil for it. He's crazy if he thinks someone will buy that place in this market. Why purchase it and unload it after a year's time. Maybe, the economic crunch is affecting everyone, not just us common almost middle class.
Reply by b - February 10th 2011 @ 8:56PMyou're all morons, arguing over whether god exists or not in the comments section of an article on two homes deion sanders is selling....that said you can't prove god doesn't exist and you can't prove he does...
Reply by Hattie Crabtree - February 10th 2011 @ 1:59PMWow,talk about living high on the hog!!! :)He'll end up broke.Reminds me of MC Hammer.He built this ridiculous castle near San Franciso,supported his mooching relatives then went broke.
Reply by Al-B - February 11th 2011 @ 1:27PMI doubt if he'll go broke, but maintaining this property has to be a hit on his pockets now that he's not making the kind of money that he used to make. It's a smart move trying to get rid of some of these properties, but the timing is horrible.
by Hattie Crabtree - February 10th 2011 @ 2:13PMThat Elwyn character is a silly bible thumper.I call them " modern day Purtians ".The south is full of them,how awful.
