Michael Vick cuts price for Atlanta mansion

In jail and owing millions, former quarterback Michael Vick has cut the price of his luxury Atlanta home to $4.1 million, from $4.5 million, after a year on the market.

Meanwhile in rural Virginia, the house where Vick hosted the dog-fighting ring that proved his undoing is headed back to the auction block on Dec. 12 - at a reduced minimum price of $590,000.

Last year, developer Wilbur Ray Todd Jr. bought the 4,600-square-foot Surrey County house, on 15 acres, from Vick for $450,000, intending to remodel it and sell it for $1 million at auction. But he failed to get a suitable offer. Local agent Kyle Hause of Long & Foster Real Estate, and Motley's Auction and Realty Group of Richmond, are handling this year's auction.

As for the Atlanta house, in 2005 Vick - then one of the NFL's brightest rising stars - paid $3.78 million for the newly built eight-bedroom home in the Sugarloaf Country Club area with lake views, a sauna, home theater, outdoor fireplaces and a double-height entrance foyer with a curved staircase. Atlanta's Funari Realty has the listing. Last year, Vick pleaded guilty to federal charges and is serving a 23-month prison sentence in Kansas. He remains suspended from the Atlanta Falcons.

The rescued dogs have had their own television special, live on a Utah animal sanctuary (with their care financed by $928,000 from Vick), and have their own wine brand: Vicktory Dogs.
