Crime Families $7,000,000 ABANDONED Beach Mansion | BMW, Mercedes-Benz, EVERYTHING Left!!

You’re about to see one of the most incredible abandoned mansions we’ve ever found. Originally built in 1988 with 12,000 square feet of living space right on the beach. This would be anyone’s typical dream home. In 2012 the mansion went up for sale and almost immediately after hitting the market it was sold for 5 million dollars to a family that came to America from Egypt. But just 6 months later a devastating hurricane slammed into the northeast causing substantial amounts of damage to the home and many other homes around. But that’s not why this mansion is abandoned. After the hurricane the family fixed the house and made it quote on quote “hurricane proof” and did many other upgrades bringing the property value to $7,000,000. But according to neighbors and anonymous sources. The family was doing some shady things to acquire their wealth. Quite honestly no one knew what these people even did to become so rich. Some say they were part of the mafia, some say it was drug lords, no one really knows who these people are. But one thing we did find inside of the home was foreclosure papers dating to 2014. Which makes sense being that there are 2 luxury cars left behind in the garage that have tags dated to 2014. People in the neighborhood say they were here one day and gone the next never to return. So let’s explore and try uncover exactly why this place is abandoned. So join me today and let’s see what’s left.

Honestly my favorite part of this house is how respectful you are of the people who used to live there

[@snorlax4021]

People need to hear the truth tho; the interior of the house is honestly terrible. The styling is just awful - really tacky, almost like it was decorated by someone with absolutely no sense of taste or style.

[@SarahS-zq8ru]

I don’t understand the neighborhood kids that get inside to just to vandalize the place. Like what is wrong with these suburban spoiled brats that feel so entitled to just destroy things? It goes to show some real internalized issues, or their parents never teaching respect.? I have no idea, do not get it. Its like some lord of the flies sh*t i can tell you that. They get free rein of a place and all they can think to do is destroy!.? Something wrong there imo. I’m thinking if i came upon this type of scenario as kid, it be more like a secret club house, and id wanna keep it nice as a hang out spot! Lol but idk? The hate and discontent in these kids that vandalize, just beyond my scope i guess… how fun to explore these type of time capsules, it does make me feel for the people that clearly got in over their heads in debt. I hope they had somewhere safe to restart their new life, regardless of what brought them to have to abandon this property… thank you for giving us this glimpse into this mysterious scenario, certainly makes me curious to know more about it, even tho prob not my business….

[@poppyglow]

This house was previously owned by Perry and Alex Criscitelli who were part of the Bonanno crime family. The current owner is Abdel asser Kamel Sheta Esmail who may be related to Gamal Abdel Nasser, an Egyptian military officer and politician who served as the second president of Egypt from 1954 until his death in 1970. It appears that the house was foreclosed because the owner did not pay the Homeowner Association Dues that were less than $10,000, Board of Directors of Ocean Gate Estates Home Owners Association Inc. - v. - Abdel Nasser Kamel Sheta Esmail et al. He also owes $55,623.07 for the property tax that was due on January 2, 2024, according to NYC Department of Finance.

There’s a tide mark on the Mercedes from Hurricane Sandy, I assume the same for the BMW. This family bought the house just prior to Sandy, they repaired the house (next door was demolished) and had ‘nt got to the garage. Tax and sales records show they still own the house. The zebra print carpet and a lot of the furniture was in the house when they purchased it, going by the last for sale listing. Most other KZbinrs are saying the husband was arrested and the family deported, but my research shows the wife is still in the area. The foreclosure you refer to was by the HOA, it’s listed in court documents, probably for Hurricane proofing their house without HOA approval I’m guessing. It has been listed several times since 2014 but always withdrawn

Hey Bankz! I loved this video. I used to be an interior decorator for a couple of showrooms during 2007-2014, and one of them carried only the highest end furniture companies. It was my favorite job I've ever had! It's crazy because I recognize a lot of the furniture and rugs from those days and it's ALL from the most expensive lines, as you guessed. I can tell from the style of the decor that they had an interior decorator come through and do the rooms for them and furnishings. But then, like you were saying, all those tacky fuzzy comforters and things like that makes it clear the smaller items that they were purchasing themselves, they had no clue how to match colors and decorate. It seems like they must have had some young babies that they were having to feed, and rather go up and down stairs they just put a fridge and a microwave in the master so they could do bottles and whatnot easily. Maybe they had multiples like twins or triplets that made it difficult to manage.

I cannot imagine why ANYONE would want anything so grossly overdone as this. I like nice things as much as the next person, but geez/Louise!!! Can you imagine have to keep a house like that CLEAN? Even if you had all that space to have friends/family come to stay with you at the beach, the space does not even make sense. You'd need a whole staff to just to keep up with the house, no way just a housekeeper alone would be enough. A maintenance man, grounds keeper, live in child care, cook..... the list goes on.

I love that nobody mentioned the MASSIVE pool of dried blood all over the floor by the pool table, at first I thought it was puke but that is definitely blood, it looks like somebody was shot and bled out or brutally butchered there.

What another wonderful house. I loved the observatory I would stay up there all day. I would love a kitchen like that, it’s a great place to have party’s.

I mean, it really really doesn’t matter. The house is gonna get foreclosed on anyway everything‘s gonna go in the garbage so who cares if they take the stuff I never understood why you guys are humming and hoeing about why stuff gets taken who cares they’re in a whole Nother country, they fled for tax evasion. Do you really think they care about this stuff being taken? No they owe $55,000 and back property taxes. Do you think they give a damn about taking some stuff out of this damn house and it’s just gonna go to the landfill anyway, so somebody might as well take it.

[@kimdale5308]

It’s funny how you can tell when people have never been around things no fault to their own they go and discover these houses and they don’t know what actually is cheap things or good things. They have no clue. They just have seen videos and watch stuff on TV and think all these things are expensive when reality this is just cheap junk, these are people that had some money, but they didn’t come for money the decorations they didn’t know what to do. They just went and bought a bunch of crap that they thought looked expensive.

[@annagarza7299]

I will never understand why people just decide we are leaving and TAKE NOTHING WITH THEM 😩 in the 2008-2009 house crash my friend worked for a company in the Bay Area California 🌴 and they would go into each abandoned house to clean it up and she could not believe they did not take anything she said nice bedroom sets tv’s everywhere and kitchen fully stocked WOW ….

[@dougbottum8594]

Coming to you live from Orlando. I used to explore abandoned mansions in Orlando when I was a kid before the internet unfortunately. Found a house in Altamonte springs back in the early nineties rumor had it the father killed his wife and two kids and then himself in the house. So we decided to go exploring it looked like the house from Gone with the Wind. So here's the funny thing there was an article in the newspaper several years later because somebody had bought the house and they were tearing it down. It was in a beautiful neighborhood on a lake. Come to find out the rumor about the father was untrue but the house was owned by somebody involved with the movie gone with The wind and The wrap party with all the stars from the movie Gone with the Wind was held at that house.

Hi there I love your Videos. You asked what we like the most of this house, well I am really honest with you absolutely nothing. For me this house looks like everything expensive thrown in there, to show off or whatever, without any kind of taste. I often saw such houses with golden everything with the main goal to show off, to show we have money, but absolutely tasteless. For me there is nothing warm and cozy in this house. I wouldn’t want it even if it was given to me for free. And the animal print stuff absolute no go. But great video, thanks. 😊

Too many WTF sections in this house... sad i had to scroll this far to see a comment that got close to my own thoughts. Would make Total sense how the upper bathroom with Bathtub and fancy pillars had been converted into a *saferoom* or as another person said a place to take care of multiple kids... without having to go up and don stairs... or to keep someone in a place being as luxurious as could be. the basement with the Steve mcqueen car bed in the corner the huge screen with the little zebra print seats. excess of mountain due water bottles everywhere. ofc the ninja fruit splatter of ribena juice at the pool table an in the kitchen also make me feel bad.. super tasty juice what a waste. just a whole lotta wtf going on..
