Would you spend $7.5 million on a guest house for friends and family?

March 10, 2019 · by Andrew Oliver · in Luxury Property, Market Reports

According to American Luxury, Katy Perry has sold one of her Beverly Hills properties.

After all, who needs 3 houses in Beverly Hills?

Friends and family will be relieved the hear that one of the two she is keeping is the $7.5 million for “friends and family”.

Phew! I thought I was going to have to check AirBnB on my next visit.

$350 million price cut in Beverly Hills

March 3, 2019 · by Andrew Oliver · in Luxury Property, Market Reports

After saying for 4 years that no offer under $1 billion would be accepted, the seller of The Mountain of Beverly Hills has reduced the price to a bargain $650 million.

According to American Luxury,the property, which totals 157 acres, “up to six separate properties may be carved out of it. It is pre-landscaped, and has already had thousands of plants and trees transplanted on it; a tireless series of sprinklers keeps the lawn looking fairytale. A gate and a paver motor court have also already been installed, not to mention an extensive array of atmospheric lighting.”

Here’s the view (there are more photos in the link above):

And if you are interested I can introduce you to a very good mortgage broker. Saving a few basis points on the mortgage may just make a difference….
