Dennis Quaid, aged 72, has reduced the asking price of his Los Angeles mansion from $5.2 million to $4.6 million as he continues to reside primarily in Nashville with his wife Laura Savoie. Purchased in late 2017 for $3.9 million, the Brentwood Hills property features over 4,100 square feet with five bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms. The actor, who feels Los Angeles has been declining since the 1990s due to issues like high taxes and poor wildfire management, initially kept the home after moving to Nashville in 2020 but is now actively seeking a buyer.
