The Portuguese superstar, said to be disgruntled at the Bernabeu, has already been linked with a move away, with head coach Zinedine Zidane and President Florentino Perez believed to plotting a huge summer of changes.
The 31-year-old is one of a number of players, Toni Kroos, Isco and James Rodriguez among them, who is said to be available for the right price this summer.
According to Spanish gossip website OK Diario, the Portuguese forward has put both his and his mother's Madrid houses up for sale.
Ronaldo's seven bedroom mansion, bought for €4.9million in 2010, has been put up for sale for €5m, claim the site.
The 8,600 square foot home also boasts nine bathrooms, eight toilets, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, cinema room, a gym and even a lift; it is located in the exclusive La Finca region of the city, where a number of Real team-mates and Atletico Madrid rivals reside.
His mother's house, has also been put on the market for a reported €2.5m.
Ronaldo, who has 41 goals this season, has been linked with a return to Manchester United, while Paris Saint-Germain are also said to be interested.
Of course, he may just want to move.
