Victoria Gotti’s $2.65 million NY mansion – featured in TV show ‘Growing Up Gotti’ is foreclosed on

Victoria Gotti’s million-dollar New York mansion famously debuted in the reality TV show ‘Growing Up Gotti’ was foreclosed on by a bank.

The $2.65 million Old Westbury home was once owned by Victoria’s mob-boss father John Gotti and has been abandoned since the FBI raided the mansion in 2016 as apart of a tax fraud investigation involving the mob-daughter and her sons, according to Page Six.

Now, JP Morgan Chase National Bank snatched up the home for in October for $2.65 million when it was auctioned off. 

The Long Island mansion appears to need some work as algae fills the partially empty pool and the weeds peek through the cement. 

The Gotti’s family auto part shop – run by Victoria’s sons Carmine, John and Frank Gotti Agnello – was also raided by the FBI in 2016. 

Carmine Agnello, Victoria’s ex-husband, used to run the shop until he turned it over to his sons. 

Victoria Gotti dumped Agnello about 19 years ago after he was exposed for cheating on her with his Queens secretary – and was also convicted of racketeering. 

The family was famously featured in ‘Growing Up Gotti,’ which ran from 2004-2007 on A&E.

It was cancelled due to poor ratings, according to NBC.

It appears Victoria has had a long foreclosure battle with JP Morgan for nearly two decades. 

Victoria became the sole owner of the home in 2004.

She reportedly owed JP Morgan $650,000 in mortgage payments in 2009 after not paying for two years.

At the time Gotti had a plan of using her ex-husbands money from the land he lost when he was convicted to pay off the home. 

But it is unclear if she ever did.

‘I’m never going to lose that house,’ Gotti previously told The New York Daily News. 

Victoria previously attempted to sell the home for $4.8 million despite it being worth a $3.2 million at the time, the news outlet reported.

Victoria’s rise to fame began with her father John, who became well-known in the late 1980s when he was given the nickname ‘The Teflon Don’ because of his ability to beat various rap sheets.

He was also known as the ‘Dapper Don’ because he always appeared immaculately dressed in expensive suits in public.

John became head of the Gambino family – one of five families which traditionally dominated the Mob in New York – in 1985 after ordering a hit on his boss, Paul ‘Big Paul’ Castellano. 

Castellano and his chauffeur were gunned down outside Sparks steakhouse in midtown Manhattan. Gotti apparently watched the hit go down from a car parked across the street.

Gotti was never brought to book for the Castellano murder and was acquitted of other crimes in two separate trials, both of which were surrounded by rumors of jury tampering and intimidation.

Eventually in 1992 Gotti was convicted under the new RICO laws – designed to target mafia bosses – and jailed for life without possibility of parole for racketeering and murder. 

Despite Victoria’s connection to her mob father, she previously claimed that she doesn’t associate herself with the family business. 

‘The preconceived notions about my life that I’d like to change or make people more aware of – correct – is that I think the whole aura that life was just so easy and I was this princess my whole life. It was anything but that,’ she told Page Six in 2019. 

She further went on to debunk the myth that she was merely just a ‘mob princess.’ 

‘Through the grace of God I’ve had a great chance to live an amazing life, an amazing, an amazing life,’ Victoria said. ‘I grew up dirt poor. I don’t know what this whole princess thing is about and was about.’ 

Before she launched her reality TV show, Victoria also wrote a series of thriller novels in the 2000s.
