The latest celebrity real estate rumor comes from TMZ on January 25, 2014 who revealed that Big Bang Theory star, Kaley Cuoco and her husband Ryan Sweeting have purchased the Tarzana home formerly owned by Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom who are in the middle of a divorce. You can view more details and listing pictures of this home here

Kardashian/Odom first acquired this property for $3,950,000 on December 18, 2009 which if sold at today's asking price would translate into a profit of $1,549,000 before any expenses which is a pretty good return after close to 4 years of living in the home. Its been speculated that Kardashian has already moved back to the mother's nest in Hidden Hills while Odom might be in Florida where he owns another home.

Going back to Cuoco who is no stranger to the SFV as she currently owns a Sherman Oaks home (shown above) that was purchased on November 19, 2010 for $2.4 million and featured 5 Beds/5 Baths on 5,233 sqft on a total lot size of 10,750 sqft built in 2004. Does this mean Kelly will be selling this home in the near future after moving to Tarzana?

Prior to the Sherman Oaks home mentioned above, Cuoco owned another Sherman Oaks home (shown above) that measured 3 Bed/2.5 Bath on 2,171 sqft on a total lot size of 10,510 sqft built in 1937. This home was purchased for $1,355,000 on October 7, 2005 and sold at a $500K loss on August 31, 2011 for $822,500 which was discussed here with more detail
