Wisconsin governor Scott Walker has listed his 1920's colonial home in Wauwatosa for $338,000. The former presidential candidate's listing, however, caused quite a controversy among his neighbors.
Scott Walker, who is currently on his second term as the governor of Wisconsin, has become quite controversial in his neighborhood after the 48-year-old politician listed his colonial home in the real estate market.
The two-story home was built in the 1920s and houses three bedrooms with 2.5 bathrooms. The Walkers have also done some minor changes to the colonial home, including its chimney and the exterior's paint.
The family room is situated on the first floor, which is also beautifully accentuated with a bay window and a seating area next to it. The house also has a dining room, which comes with a built-in buffet and vintage cabinets in the kitchen.
According to Realtor, some of Walker's neighbors wondered if the governor's decision to put his Wauwatosa residence for sale has anything to do with his rumored debts.
Walker allegedly accumulated debts following his campaign debts after announcing his decision to run as a presidential candidate in July 2015. However, the Wisconsin governor decided to withdraw his bid for the White House two months after, citing that the "wall on the Canadian border was a 'legitimate' idea."
Aside from the campaign debts, Business Insider reported that Walker, whose current net worth is $72,500, has thousands of dollars worth of credit card debt to go along with his children's $100,000 student-loan.
Walker reportedly owes Barclays an estimated debt of $10,000 - $15,000, which comes with an interest rate of 27.24 percent.
Aside from this, he also owes the Bank of America $10,000 - $15,000. The interest rate on this debt is 11.99 percent.
The publication further noted that Walker has previously owed Sears up to $50,000 in credit card debt in April 2015. The issue, however, was already clarified in a statement, saying that none of the expenses were anything out of the norm.
