...From our increasingly talkative tipster Nelly Knowsitall that even though JenniFleck (or whatever it is that all the gossip glossies call Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner) are having a tough time selecting a decadent new house to buy, they have very quietly put their current crib in Brentwood on the market for just over eight million clammers.
Little Miss Knowsitall whispered to Your Mama that the unable to pull the real estate trigger couple have backed out of at least four (and maybe five) high priced purchases. None the less, rumor in the real estate street says a lack of a new address hasn't stopped the undecided duo from allowing some of Los Angeles' better connected property purveyors to book appointments show their home on N. Tigertail Road.
Just some rumor and gossip to yik-yak about during your morning koffee-klatch.
I had hoped that Mama would report that Leona Helmsley's little Maltese, who has beaucoup bucks, was putting in a low-ball offer on the Garfleck pile. Dogs seem to love sniffing out baby waste and this place would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteNO only little people live in houses under 10 million. The dog can stay in greenwich because even with a 30 million price reduction this will be longer on the market then Fennie Mae is in uncle Sam hands.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to them. All bets are off on finding a quick buyer with the economy falling apart even for the verrry rich who aren't nearly as wealthy today as they were a mere week ago. McCain's new surname: McToast.
ReplyDeleteNow only if the rich would finally bow down to pressure and price their homes accordingly in Bel Air, Beverly Park, Beverly Hills and Sunset Plaza
ReplyDeleteAsking price for “Bachelor”/”Bachelorette” mansion in Agoura Hills, CA reduced from almost $13M to $8.75M
he owner of the Agoura Hills, Calif. mansion where TV’s “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” are filmed has reduced his asking price from nearly $13 million to $8,750,000.
You can't suppose that these gods of the silver screen might be wanting for cash, can you? Nope, imposible.
ReplyDeleteanon 8:26..........You are absolutely right.......I will have to rethink this......maybe find a poorer celebrity dog. Perhaps Ed McMahon has a dog.. no...that wouldn't work either.
ReplyDeleteaverage joe here
ReplyDeletesee I had the crystal ball
you all must pay homage to me
my next prediction ?
90% drop in the high end market
or at the very least RE prices will go back to 1994 levels
lol
oh and the realtor's commission will go up to 20%
ReplyDeleteThey should look at 401 S. Hudson in Hancock Park.....17.5 million
ReplyDelete401 S. Hudson
ReplyDeletezillow says it is worth 3.2 MM
and they are listing it for 17.5 MM ?
that is a 600% markup
is that a little bold for this market ?
zillow is wrong 100% of the time.
ReplyDeleteIf zillow is wrong 100% of the time then I can sell my estate in hancock park that I bought for 3MM in 2000 for 20MM
ReplyDeleteI will pay 1MM to anyone that can get me 20 MM for it within 2 months
my home is 13000 sqft and it is on an acre of land
if you cannot get me 20 MM for it then you owe me 100k
anyone willing to take that bet ?
yes, i will take your bet and your money.. where is the house ?
ReplyDelete1st off my lawyer has to talk to yours
ReplyDeleteif you do not have one from a firm my lawyer does business with you are not qualified
loeb and loeb would be a good reference point
