illionaire Don Hankey, known for his ties to President Donald Trump and his role as "the king of the subprime car loan," is putting his Florida mansion on the market for $44 million. The 11,000-square-foot modernist beachfront home in Highland Beach, near Boca Raton, boasts stunning sea views, a massive double-decker patio, and an infinity pool installed by Hankey at a cost of $250,000.

    Hankey paid $29.5 million for the property in 2021 and has since added lavish features such as a floating stone fireplace, lava stone floors, and a living green wall. The estate includes seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, two kitchens, a screening room, a spa, and a six-car garage.

    The primary suite is particularly impressive, with a personal gym, wet bar, oversized marble bath, and glass-enclosed office. Hankey's Westlake Financial Services has worked with over 50,000 car dealerships across the country to provide auto loans to buyers with bad or no credit.

    Hankey made headlines in 2024 when he posted a $175 million appeal bond for Trump in his New York civil fraud case. The billionaire's company has also faced legal battles, including two settlements with the Department of Justice over alleged violations of laws protecting military personnel from foreclosure and repossession.

    The Highland Beach market is thriving, with median sales prices exceeding $1 million. Hankey's estate is an "exceptionally rare multigenerational estate" that rarely becomes available in the area, according to listing agent Samantha Curry.
