He’s now selling the level 17 dual key apartment which comes with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has 90 sqm internal space.

The building was completed in 2015 by Merfad Capital.

Hayne amassed an impressive property portfolio as he rose through the ranks of the NRL, but now only has the two Parramatta apartments, and a cottage at Umina Beach on the Central Coast occupied by his mother.

He had investment houses in Paddington and Darlinghurst that were sold for $2.85 million in 2017 and $2.15 million in 2019.

His first Sydney home purchase at St Peters sold for $995,000 in 2015 as he made the move to the US to pursue a career in the NFL, having paid $527,500 in 2007, when the 19-year-old winger was the second youngest footballer to wear the NSW jumper.

In May Hayne was found guilty of sexual assault and was jailed for five years and nine months, and a non-parole period of three years and eight months. His appeal will be heard in November.
