The Jamaica Estates Tudor, in Queens, New York is currently renting for $617/night, the New York Post reports.

Real estate developer Michael Davis purchased the home for $1.39M after it was put up for auction by restaurateur Isaac Kestenberg and his now-estranged wife, Claudia, in 2016. Davis has since flipped the property and sold it only months later for a profit of nearly $1M.
