Nicolas Cage
The star: He's an Academy Award-winning actor (for "Leaving Las Vegas"),
nephew of multiple-Oscar-winning filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola and the
former son-in-law of Elvis (he was briefly married to Lisa Presley).
The house: Make that "houses." In November 2009, Cage lost two New
Orleans homes -- one in the French Quarter, the other in the Garden
District -- worth a combined $6.8 million, according to a CNNMoney.com
report. Cage was behind $5.5 million in mortgage payments, and he owed
$151,730 in property taxes to the city of New Orleans. Regions Bank paid
$4.5 million for the properties.
The market: One in 720 homes in Orleans Parish had foreclosure filings
in November 2010, according to RealtyTrac. The average foreclosure sales
price in the city was close to $110,000.
Erin Moran
The star: She's best known as Richie Cunningham's freckle-faced little
sister Joanie on the 1970s sitcom "Happy Days" and co-star of the
spinoff "Joanie Loves Chachi."
The house: Los Angeles County court records posted on the entertainment
website TMZ.com show that Moran, also known by her married name Erin
Fleishmann, owed $315,930 on the Palmdale, Calif., home. The Bank of New
York Mellon Trust bought the house at auction for $291,150 in July 2010.
According to TMZ, Moran stayed in the home after losing it to the bank
and was evicted.
The market: Palmdale, just north of Los Angeles, posted foreclosure
filings in November 2010 on one in 80 housing units. The average
foreclosure sales price was around $154,000.
Lisa Wu-Hartwell
The star: Viewers of Bravo's "Real Housewives of Atlanta," may remember
Wu-Hartwell from the first season as one of the network's touted "six
fabulous women from Atlanta's social elite." Hubby Edgerton Hartwell,
the former Oakland Raiders linebacker, made frequent appearances.
The house: According to court records posted on TMZ.com, the couple
borrowed $2.9 million to buy their suburban mansion in June 2007. Just

outfielder for the Mets and the Phillies during the late 1980s and early
1990s. After filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2009, Dykstra -- in a
move many found ironic -- started an online financial advisory firm in
2010 called Nails Investments.
The house: Dykstra bought the 6.5-acre property in Thousand Oaks,
Calif., from hockey pro Wayne Gretzky for $18.5 million in 2007,

The house: Located Manalapan, Fla., near Palm Beach, the Villa Venezia
was originally built for the great-grandson of railroad tycoon Cornelius
Vanderbilt. According to The Palm Beach Post, the 52-room, 28,000-
square-foot mansion sold to New Stream Capital for $22 million at a Palm
Beach County auction in February 2008.
