Bu Hoo for Leo

Leo DeCaprio is saying bye to the Bu -- He just sold his Malibu pad -- and before we tell you how much, look at the picture of the 2,734 square foot house and guess ...


Fact is, we don't have an exact figure ... but according to the L.A. Times, it was listed at $8 mil -- actually a dollar less than that to make it look like a bargain.

The house has been on the market since November, so we're guessing he didn't get asking price. Even still, how ridiculous.

2. I live in Canada & have been to California many times. This place looks like a "Super 8" motel. I know Malibu is a beautiful area, but that price for so little sq. footage? No offence to the good folks of SoCal, but now I know why many people call it "LaLa Land". 8 million, seriously?.......

5. Hope he gets close to his asking price... well, even close to his purchase price, for that matter. Now is not the time to sell in America.

6. It will probably burn up anyway.

7. Ever wonder what is wrong with the California economy? It's been a false economy for many years plus realtors, property owners, and super wealthy driving up the price of real estate, et al. and, unfortunately, we have not seen the worst.

I'll never forget the shock of moving to the Bay Area years ago and looking for homes to purchase...absolute dumps in Marin County for unimaginable sales prices.

8. House prices are going to fall alot further. That is why smart people are selling.

9. Wow, it doesn't look for eco-friendly. I wonder why Leo doesn't donate the sales of the house to the Save The Rain Forrest Foundation? Oh that's right, because just like Al "i'm scamming your dumbasses" Gore he doesn't want to actually have to use any of his own money, just ours.

It's a "beach" house. They're supposed to have that weathered look. But really, who cares. He can afford to have 100 homes if he wanted them. And WHY are they paid so much again?

13. Looks like a double wide to me.

14. California can be a fun place to visit, but living your personal/family life there doesn't sound attractive at all.

Currently, the Phoenix-metro area and the Tucson-metro area combined, have about two dozen homes on the market that feature more than 8,000 square feet of living area, for less than $2 million. That's just next door, in earthquake-free central and southern Arizona.

But cross the Colorado River into California, and drive to Malibu, and those numbers are turned upside down. A home in the 2,000 square foot range, for $8 million? Obscene, and foolish.

If I became a billionaire, I would never purchase property in Malibu, one of the most wildfire-plagued and mudslide-prone areas of the western United States.
