President Trump's childhood home sells after renovation

The president lived at the Tudor-style Queens estate until age 4.

President Donald Trump's childhood home in Queens, New York, has been sold for $1.93 million after a $500,000 renovation. The Tudor-style house, built in 1940 by Trump's father Fred, was last owned by developer Tommy Lin, who purchased it for $835,000 in 2020 after it remained vacant for several years. The home underwent a significant transformation, featuring a modern kitchen, luxurious bathrooms, and herringbone wood floors.

The last owner, a company called Trump Birth Home LLC, also listed the property for rent on Airbnb, complete with Trump memorabilia. The home's price surged to $2.14 million just months after Trump became president in 2017, before Lin acquired it. The property had previously been listed for $2.9 million in 2019 but remained unsold.

Trump, now 80, is known for his real estate career, including the construction of Trump Tower in Manhattan and the White House renovations during his presidency.
