The rumor mill was filled with reports yesterday that actor Jonah Hill flipped his Tarzana home to Selena Gomez. This information was revealed by the always hilarious Your Mama at the Realestalker via the Zillow Blog, X17online, and Entertainmentwise.com. While this is just rumor as the property records do not reflect any such transaction occurring, we will update you when the opportunity arises.
According to the sources above, Gomez purchased the home for $2.9 million. Jonah Hill purchased this home for $2.175 million on July 14, 2011 which was discussed on this blog (which has more details on the property) giving Mr. Hill a cool profit of $725,000 which is quite amazing given that Mr. Hill has only had the home for barely one year. Maybe the real estate zany days are back. Its possible that Mr. Hill also made significant improvements to the home justifying the higher price but the only available online listing photos are from when Mr. Hill purchased the property back in July 2011 so there is no evidence if the home has indeed been upgraded.
Ms. Gomez was previously living in her parent's home in Encino in a separate condo on the property (see image below). She has been spotted in and out of Encino with her boyfriend Justin Bieber who also just purchased a property in Calabasas (which was the former home of Nicole Murphy discussed on this blog).
