Tua Tagovailoa is looking to flip this house.

The Miami Dolphins quarterback has put his five-bedroom lakefront home in Davie, Florida, in the verdant Robbins Park neighborhood, up for sale.

Asking price: $3 million.

As per Broward County property records, Tagovailoa bought the 5,076-square-foot spread for approximately half that — $1.65 million — at the height of the COVID pandemic in July 2020, and soon after the then-rookie signed with the Fins.
