Deshaun Watson’s Bold Moves: Estate Purchase and Record-Breaking Contract

The estate, previously owned by Majestic Steel CEO Todd Leebow, found its new owner in Deshaun Watson last year. David Ayers of the Young Team at Keller Williams Greater Metropolitan in Pepper Pike represented Leebow during the transaction. Although the deal was finalized on October 31, 2022, the details were not made public immediately.

According to The Real Deal, Adam Kaufman, an agent at Howard Hanna Real Estate Services in Pepper Pike, expressed his surprise at Crain’s, saying, “I was surprised, actually, that that’s the house he(Deshaun Watson) chose, only because of the privacy factor. It’s got a shared driveway. It’s visible from the road. It certainly is not the most private house in the world”.

Before buying the house, Deshaun Watson inked a massive five-year deal with the Browns. The contract included a remarkable $45 million signing bonus, and what set it apart was that every penny of the deal was fully guaranteed, a rarity in the world of NFL contracts.
