Re: OMG! Look at this house! It's incredible!
OMG - the TAXES! 
ETA: Why don't I feel like the taxes are THAT bad?
Right now I am paying
$7,000 in taxes on my house. (close to 15% of what they pay).
However, my house cost NOWHERE NEAR 15% of $13,000,000! (= $1,950,000)
I know other things are considered (property size, when the house was constructed, etc), but something just doesn't seem fair there, right?

I would appreciate it if you would ask before posting my house
Kinda looks like the Gotti house
I was thinking it was Vicki Gotti's house as well. I know they live there and she wants to sell.

At first I read this and I thought - wow she's right - that DOES seem unfair!  Especially since I pay similar taxes and my house is not worth anywhere near that price.
But I think your math is off 
You shouldn't be taking 15% of their taxes you should be checking the percentage of taxes you pay compared to your homes resale value and compare that to the percentage that house pays.
For me it worked out like this:
Their taxes are 2.65% of the house's resale value
My taxes are about .61% of my resale value

They have lifesize (bigger than lifesize!) nutcracker men in the foyer!
It looks nice but I would feel so lost in the bedroom I think. It's so huge!
It reminds me of the castle in the movie The Princess Diaries 2.

Re: OMG! Look at this house! It's incredible!
Gorgeous kitchen and bath and very impressive hallway.....some of the rooms are a bit too opulent for my taste but I suppose fit the theme of the house.
Amazing nonetheless. Sometimes I wonder who lives in these houses and I think, where did I go wrong!!! :)

I agree. And I think it would be a very lonely existence living in that house. Even when you someone is home you proabably would never know. But I guess that's easier to say since I can't even come close to affording it!

Not in love with the house architecturally.
And the listing agent should learn how to spell "Separate" or at least do a spell check before listing a multi-million dollar home.

Re: OMG! Look at this house! It's incredible!
This is one of the first mansion type houses that I like. I could live there quite comfortably Some of them look like museums, though, and I would never want that.
