It appears the times are getting tough for Dennis Rodman, who's been rumored to be signing an NBA contract within a month.

He bought his pinkish-brown, two-story Seashore Drive home in 1996 for $825,000, put it on the market for $3.8 million and sold it for cash to an Arizona developer in two days, said Christopher Parr, Rodman's real-estate agent.

The sale comes as Rodman, 43, is being sued for divorce by his third wife, Michelle, the mother of two of his children. The divorce case provides a view into the former NBA star's finances, which his attorney says in court papers "have deteriorated significantly."

Neighbors are mixed over his leaving.

"I'm kind of going to miss him," said one Robert Marsh.

On the other hand, Jim Jacobs, who lives with his two teenage sons and a daughter across the street from the house Rodman sold, said he was not sorry to see him leave.

"We're tickled to death," he said. "If people say they're not happy to see him go, there's something wrong with them."
