Terrell Owens Unloads Another Condo For Massive LOSS
More bad news for unemployed NFLer Terrell Owens ... TMZ has learned the former football star took a major hit on his Georgia condo ... selling it off for nearly HALF of what he paid for it.
T.O. -- whose finances have taken a turn for the worse as of late -- has been dumping his real-estate collection right and left (both his Miami and Dallas condos were already sold) ... and now he finally unloaded his 1,060-square-foot Atlanta crib.
The deal wasn't so great for T.O. -- he purchased the pad back in 2005 for $324,600 and then listed it in 2011, where it sat on the market for over a year. He finally unloaded it earlier this month for a mere $180k.
But it's a steal for the new owner ... the cool digs is rockin' 2 bedrooms, 2 baths ... and primo amenities like a 24/7 concierge service, rooftop pool, fitness center, yoga studio and a club room -- with Xbox & Playstation.
Maybe T.O needed a little less "Call of Duty" and little more time with the pigskin.

Adrienne Maloof Movin' On Up... The Hill

Adrienne will be moving to a swanky, gated community in Beverly Hills adjacent, where Charlie Sheen, Paris Hilton and Slash call home.
The mansion is 10,000 square feet, 3 stories, with a theater, library and a backyard that looks like it sits in a resort.

Lakers EVP Jeanie Buss Takes $1 Million Hit on Mansion Sale
It's the opposite of a slam dunk ... in fact it's more like a devastating defeat ... L.A. Lakers exec Jeanie Buss unloaded her L.A. mansion ... for nearly $1 MILLION LESS THAN SHE PAID.
Buss -- ya know the daughter of Lakers' head honcho Jerry Buss and girlfriend of Phil Jackson -- purchased the 4,266-sqaure-foot-digs back in 2007 ... for a cool $2,769,000.
Fast forward 5 years ... Buss recently sold the 4-bedroom, 5-bath-pad for $1.8 million. For those of you with stellar math skills ... that means she lost $969,000 on the sale.
The bright side ... the Lakers are 3-5. And just fired their coach. So not a lot of "bright."
But hey, she's still rich!

'Bachelorette' Star Homeless in Vancouver ...Temporarily
Ex "Bachelorette" Jillian Harris is moving into a cardboard box, in the brutal cold of Canada -- and while the economy does suck that much -- Jillian's actually choosing to do this for charity.
Jillian -- who was on Season 5 of the ABC show -- tells TMZ she's going to spend a night on the streets of Vancouver with nothing more than a sleeping bag and a piece of cardboard.
Jillian lives in Vancouver and is teaming up with Covenant House to raise awareness (and money) for homeless youth there because she says "it's heartbreaking to think about all the kids and families" who don't have roofs over their heads as winter approaches.
The event goes down Nov. 15th when the forecast calls for 36 degrees, 10% chance of rain -- and a 100% chance of freezing your ass off.
But if all goes well ... Jillian hopes to raise $11,000.

Shaquille O'Neal I Dropped $235k On a Totally Normal House
Shaquille O'Neal knows ... being rich and buying houses is fun ... so despite living in a GINORMOUS 70,000-square-foot mansion ... he dropped $235k on a second, regular person house 30 miles away.
Shaq -- who is reportedly worth around $250 million -- currently lives in an 11-bedroom, 13-bath PALACE outside Orlando, FL ... which includes a 20,000-square-foot basketball court and garage filled with DOZENS of sports cars!!!
But that just wasn't enough ... 'cause in July the former NBA superstar laid down $235k on a very normal 3,900-square-foot abode ... in a place called Mount Dora, FL.
It's unclear WHY the Shaq-ster bought the spare pad ... Investment? Gift? Kicks and giggles? But we do know the house is pretty nice -- for those of us not sitting on fat bank accounts.
The new pad is rockin' 5 bedrooms, 4 baths ... granite counter tops ... wet bar ... entertainment room ... and cherry cabinets. Which would all be really awesome ... if his other house wasn't WAY MORE awesome.
We reached out to Shaq's people to ask him about the new purchase ... but so far no word back.

Tiger has already obtained the requisite legal docs to commence building.

'Jersey Shore' House Unscathed by Hurricane Sandy Beatdown
Even Hurricane Sandy doesn't want to mess with the "Jersey Shore" ... because the infamous Seaside Heights home that housed Snooki and the gang survived "virtually untouched" by the massive storm that ravaged the East Coast this week.
We're told other than losing a few shingles, the only damage to the home was to the boards and lumber underneath the house. Amazingly, all of the windows remained intact ... no broken glass.
The house is located behind the boardwalk t-shirt store where the cast worked -- that store was crushed by Sandy's wrath.
If the house can survive the smush room, it's indestructible.
