Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Context. The Bing Crosby Hillsborough estate sold for $25 million after being listed at a much higher price ($40 million, later $30 million), not $10.8 million.[3][4]
Context. The San Francisco Decorator's Showcase home sold for $25 million in June 2026, but coverage gives no prior listing price of $10.8 million.[5]
Context. None of the sources mention a house listed at $10.8 million, so the specific listing-to-sale pair in the claim is not addressed.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
