Richard Gere is putting his Hamptons mansion back on the market for the fourth time in three years.
The actor initially tried to sell 'Strongheart Manor' in 2013 with an asking price of $65 million. When he found no takers, he reduced the price twice in 2014, going from $56 million to $47.5 million.
Gere is now listing the seaside escape with Corcoran, knocking the asking price down a further $11 million to $36.5 million.
While the three price drops may seem extreme, the current asking price is still about three times what Gere paid for the property.
