Usually, high property taxes or overvaluation are to blame, but there is no doubt that it is frustrating for celebrities who want to offload unused properties. Read on to see the most expensive mansions that almost no one wants to buy.

Speculation is high that Prince Harry himself is keen to purchase Mel Gibson's five-bedroom, five-bathroom, French country Malibu home but so far this pricey mansion remains unsold more than a decade after Gibson listed it. He first listed it for $14.5 million in 2010. One year later he dropped the price to $12.8 million.

Gibson first bought the mansion in 2008 from David Duchovny and Tea Leoni, an actor who has starred in shows like Fox'sThe X-Files. Gibson then took the ocean-view estate and gave it his own personal touch, highlighting some of the estate's 'Old World' characteristics. It's likely that high property taxes are to blame for the lack of sale.
