ANNE HECHE DOESN’T ALWAYS GET WHAT SHE WANTS
Filed Under: Anne Heche > Broke? > Money > Real Estate
Maybe Anne Heche WASN”T exaggerating last year when she claimed she was nearly broke and couldn’t afford to pay $15000 a month to her exhusband Coley Laffoon for spousal and child support. Since then she had a baby named Atlas with her new boyfriend James Tupper and her series “Men in Trees” was cancelled. She started appearing on “Hung” but money problems still haunt her. Recently she tried to purchase a two million dollar house in Hancock Park (where she once lived with Ellen Degeneres) but her loan was not approved and it fell out of escrow. She didn’t come up with the necessary cash for a huge down payment, so she lost it.

Diane Keaton and her 8 year old son Duke, who looks like a handful, were photographed visiting a house in Brentwood. Diane, who also has a daughter Dexter, 13, is always shopping for architecturally significant houses to refurbish and sell. Her acting jobs finance her costly house collecting habit.

MADONNA CAN RAISE CHICKENS IF SHE WANTS TO

So WHAT if Madonna doesn’t have perfect arms? She’s got a huge backyard in the middle of New York City, and that makes up for a LOT! We confess we’re really envious of her new townhouse, which happens to be a record 57 feet wide – where the average NY townhouse is only 18 feet wide. Madonna paid 32.5 million for the 26 room, 4 story, 12000 sq ft home with guest quarters. Most amazing is the 3000 sq feet of OUTSIDE garden area – perfect for kids and dogs. Madonna said she’s thinking of having chickens too, and neighbors are already horrified at the prospect of roosters waking them up.

WOULD YOU LEASE AN APARTMENT TO THIS WOMAN?

Courtney Love is back in New York, going from one address to another, hunting for an apartment to lease. We can’t imagine the landlords are particularly delighted to see her because on her June visit to the city, she reportedly trashed her hotel room at the posh Inn on Irving Place. $5000 worth of damage in one day, according to Page 6. Having Courtney love for a tenant would be a challenging experience.

Chris Pine ’s successful turn as the young Captain Kirk in “Star Trek” changed his financial status and his popularity overnight, but his everyday life hasn’t changed all that much. Chris still occupies the same $1500 a month apartment in the modest neighborhood of Silverlake in LA. His next movie is “Unstoppable” with Denzel Washington.

Sources say that this is the house that Mel Gibson bought for his pregnant girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva earlier this year. It’s 3468 sq ft and has 4 bedrooms and 3 and a half baths and was last on sale for 2.4 million. Oksana and Mel do not live together – she feels her 11 year old son (with Timothy Dalton) isn’t ready, and wants her son and Mel to be friends by the time the baby comes

RIHANNA'S KEEPING QUIET

Rihanna and her mother Monica left Barbados together – most likely Rihanna wants to show her mother the house in Bel Air that she plans to buy. She is cleverly keeping her feelings toward Chris Brown under wraps. No one knows for sure if they are apart or together- and that’s the way she wants it.

Rihanna has been moving around fast- she was in Hawaii a few days ago and now she’s back home in Barbados. But she is scheduled to come back on the 7th to sign papers so she can buy a 12 million dollar house she found in Bel Air. It’s just what she ’s been looking for – a hip, modern sprawling place, perfect for entertaining. Rihanna wants a home here because she wants to be a MOVIE STAR. Those rumors about her starring in a remake of the movie “The Bodyguard” might turn out to be true.

BRAD PITT EXPECTS TO MAKE A HEFTY REAL ESTATE PROFIT
Filed Under: Brad Pitt > House > Malibu > Real Estate

It must be great to be Brad Pitt’s real estate agent. Now he’s put his ocean view Malibu home with walls of glass, on the market. It’s the house Brad moved into after he and Jennifer split up. He never spent much time there because he started globe trotting with Angelina. Brad seems to be oblivious to the real estate market crash – he’s asking 18 million for the place and he paid 8.41 million for it in 2005.

BRAD AND ANGELINA ARE READY FOR ANYTHING

View the larger image: [ download 1.2 MB ] [open in new window ]
We just had to get a closer look at the Sassafras Estate - that’s the Lloyd Neck, Long Island, mansion that Brad and Angelina are leasing. It looks old, but the 22,000 sq ft house was actually built in 1987, and has the ultimate in high tech luxury. The eight bedroom house sits on 48 acres and the staff quarters features 12 bedrooms (for all those security guards.) The house is compared to “living in your own resort.” There’s a helicopter pad, a barber shop, and an underground tunnel to the front yard. We’re thinking that the fallout shelter (with bath included) is what appealed to Brad – years ago, he had a shelter dug at his Santa Barbara home. This house was one of the ten most expensive houses in America when it was built.

HEATH LEDGER: GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

Can you believe it’s been a YEAR since Heath Ledger died? That’s right – it was January 22. Fans in New York haven’t forgotten the Oscar nominee. They’ve been leaving flowers and notes outside the apartment he lived in, which, incidentally still has not been leased. You can probably get it for a song by now – maybe $24,000 a month.

Opportunity knocks. Selena Gomez moved out of her Studio City house and she left her puffy white couch (in perfect condition) behind on the curb for anyone who wanted it. Unfortunately, rain got to the couch before fans could pounce on it.

Nicole Ritchie doesn’t have to go home to her daddy’s mansion any more. Joel Madden sold the house that Nicole didn’t like in Glendale and bought a new place in the more fashionable Hollywood Hills. Actually he wanted to live closer to his store on Melrose Avenue, anyway. His brother Benji also unloaded his Glendale house (which was a block away from his twin brother’s) and bought a house down the street from Joel’s new place. So they’re still neighbors.

George Clooney is looking for the right person to move into his house. George is planning to move out of his Studio City house and find a place closer to the beach. He’s already checked out some homes and vacant lots in Pacific Palisades. George knows that now is NOT the time to put his home on the market, so he plans to lease out the Studio City home until the market improves. Above, George is on the set of his movie “Men Who Stare at Goats.”

DID THE JONAS BROTHERS FORGET ABOUT "LOCATION" WHEN THEY BOUGHT A HOUSE?
Filed Under: House > Jonas Brothers > Real Estate

You get a lot for $2,895,000 in Texas. The Jonas brothers bought this 7360 square foot compound on a golf course with no neighbors in sight. The catch is: IT’S IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE! A lovely place to retire, but why would three energetic teenage boys want to live there? It’s 35 miles of unlit roads to Dallas where there might be something to do. These guys have long outgrown the ‘burbs. We bet the place will be back on the market in two years.

DR PHIL AND ROBIN'S ARGUMENTS KEPT THE NEIGHBORS AWAKE
Filed Under: Divorce > Dr? Phil > Real Estate
For months, rumors have multiplied that Dr Phil and his wife Robin are getting a divorce. (Maybe 31 years of Phil’s insufferable ego are enough for Robin.) Now there just may be some concrete evidence of a bustup. The McGraw’s Beverly Hills neighbors report that up until recently they’ve been hearing Phil and Robin arguing in extremely loud voices. Loud enough to carry over the hedges and trees. Suddenly the brand new house the McGraws bought in 2002 for 7.5 million is empty. Everyone has moved out and it’s been pocket listed for sale at 18 million. Judging from the angry arguments, neighbors think the McGraws went in separate directions.

70's inspired Chad Rogers looks more like a rockstar, but actually he’s a realtor who will be appearing on “Million Dollar Listing” starting next month on Bravo. Apparently he specializes in Malibu properties and has lots of celebrity clients. Brad Elterman of Buzzfoto took this placid picture and he swears that Chad looks like he could be the “fifth member of the Ramones.”
