Celebrity Homes

Yes, TMZ has learned Greasy Bear -- the ne'er-do-well grandson of the late oil mogul Marvin Davis -- was instrumental in the sale of Candy Spelling's mansion.

Here's the way it went down. Brandon was at a Hollywood nightclub on April 27, partying with Petra Ecclestone -- the 22-year-old daughter of billionaire Formula One mogul Bernie Ecclestone -- when she told him she wanted to buy a HUGE house in L.A.

Brandon sprung into action, hooking Petra up with realtor/Paris Hilton's father, Rick Hilton. Sources tell TMZ, Rick made a deal with Brandon -- to give him a $250,000 finder's fee if Rick could sell a mansion to Petra.

It's a massive property -- 2.4 acres -- and the structure is practically brand new ... because Flea had to rebuild the home after it burned down in the Malibu fires back in 2007.

Sources connected with the sale of the 57,000 square foot, Holmby Hills estate tell TMZ ... 22-year-old Petra Ecclestone is plunking down $85 million for her new digs. Candy was asking $150 mil, but in the L.A. real estate market that price was a dream.

One of our sources calls it "a fair price," adding Candy will be getting more than $1,000 a square foot -- not a bad deal.

Sources close to super heiress Petra Ecclestone tell us ... the clothing designer had her heart set on a 45,000 square foot Holmby Hills property called "Fleur de Lys" -- considered one of the greatest homes on the planet.

It's unclear why the deal didn't go through -- but it IS clear why Petra wanted the home ... it's INSANE.

The five-acre property boasts 12 bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, a 50-seat home theater, 4,000 bottle wine room, massage room, beauty salon, 22-karat-gold-leaf crown moldings and a 70-foot swimming pool and spa.

Oh, it also has a BALLROOM that can fit 650 people!!!

The home, which took 5 years to complete, was built by radio mogul David Saperstein -- and has been on the market for years.

.... and Petra's gonna have to see it every time she drives home to that other 57,000 square foot dump she had to buy instead.

TMZ has confirmed the buyer is 22-year-old Petra Ecclestone, a fashion designer. Her dad, Bernie Ecclestone, is the CEO of Formula One Management, whose estimated net worth is $4 billion.

The Holmby Hills (Beverly Hills adjacent) mansion, listed at $150 million, has been on the market since March, 2009.

Although we don't know the exact price, sources connected with the deal tell TMZ ... Petra opened at $75 mil ... half the asking price.

Sources say the deal is currently in escrow and has not closed.

The estate has a bowling alley, beauty salon, several gift-wrapping rooms and parking for 100 cars.

Candy bought 2 penthouse units in a nearby condo complex in Century City for a whopping $35 million. We're told the condo won't be ready for a year, because of extensive renovations.

TMZ has learned Weiner and his wife, Huma Abedin, put their swanky Queens apartment up for sale around May 22 -- and uploaded several photos of the place on a real estate site. One pic featured a poster of JFK hanging on the wall.

The computer station seems to be the exact spot where Weiner took his infamous topless pics -- because the paint on the wall matches up. Also, the drawers in the background sync up with another photo featured in the listing.

TMZ has learned the Fatone family is moving and EVERYTHING must go -- including Joey's Death Star replica, his personal Sword of Omens from Thundercats, arcade games, furniture, art, dishes, grill utensils ... all the way down to his clothes and shoes.

In fact ... since everything in the house is marked with price tags -- it looks like the only thing not included in the sale is the kitchen sink.

The 3-bedroom, 2-bath house is a few minutes from the strip -- and is completely pimped out with thousands of punk concert flyers and memorabilia.

We're told the tricked-out punk pad comes complete with a 9-hole putting green, a pool table, a water slide ... and the best feature yet: a beer vending machine!

Sources connected to the deal tell us ... the bigwigs at YouPorn.com approached Sheen's realtor with an offer to buy the place for $4.5 million in cash .... WAY lower than Sheen's listing price, $7.2 mil.

We're told the YouPorn people have told Sheen's people they hope to fulfill Sheen's dream of moving in several porn stars to live at the mansion. The YouPorn peeps told the realtor if Sheen accepts the deal, he can hang out at the porno compound as much as he wants.

So far, we're told Sheen has not made a decision on the offer.

Sheen listed the 7,924 square foot estate in the last few days -- touting the place as a "Celebrity Home" complete with 5 bedrooms and 7 baths. Charlie has listed the pad at $7.2 mil.

Charlie struck a deal with his ex-wife Brooke Mueller in their divorce -- in which he paid her $1 million to take sole ownership of the house.

Here's how the MLS listing reads -- "This custom-built Mediterranean in Mulholland Estates is an entertainer's dream with spacious public rooms, most of which open to a beautifully landscaped yard featuring a professional outdoor kitchen with dining area, pool and spa. Other features include a screening room and top-of-the-line appliances and finishes."

Located in a semi-secure gated community where cars only occasionally get thrown off cliffs.

According to legal documents filed Thursday at L.A. County Superior Court, Bijan owned a $5 million mansion in Beverly Hills, another giant multi-million dollar mansion in Malibu, and two ritzy condos in West Hollywood.

The docs show the vast amount of Bijan's enormous estate will be divided among his three children -- with a small remainder going to his sister and two ex-wives.

It's unclear exactly how much his entire estate is worth -- but based on the will, contained in the legal documents, Bijan believed his fortune was valued somewhere in the mid eight-figure range.

TMZ spoke with the man who owns the loan on Octo's La Habra home -- Amer Haddadin -- who tells us Nadya Suleman missed her May payment and the bank has already hit her with late fees.

Amer tells us he's been in contact with Nadya ... who has made it clear -- she's broke-ass broke all over again.

Of course, it ain't the first time Nadya has been on the verge of homelessness -- last year, Amer let Octo off the hook when she failed to make a $450,000 balloon payment on the home ... and mercifully changed the payment structure so she could stay in the house.

TMZ obtained a lawsuit ... which claims Robitaille and his wife stopped paying the mortgage on their Santa Monica, CA home.

According to the suit, Robitaille took a $975,000 loan out on the house in October 2009, but stopped making the monthly payments in December 2010.

A rep for American Auctions -- the company behind the sell-off -- tells TMZ the auction's scheduled to take place on Sunday, May 22nd ... and you can expect to bid on everything from Alicia's furniture, fitness equipment, pool table, and trampoline ... to her creepy doll collection.

The 5,000 sq ft home includes a saltwater pool, glassed in sunroom, outside fireplace, 5 bedrooms and 5 baths ... but no apparent grotto, helipad or batcave.

So we gotta ask ...

The 1920's colonial Georgian home -- located in the Chicago suburb of Winnetka -- is advertised as "Classic residence offers timeless and inspired family living."

Listing agent Marissa Hopkins thinks the home is definitely a film star, saying, “Very few homes have a leading role in a movie, in a sense becoming an additional character.”

Besides being a piece of movie history ... the home also boasts a four-room master suite, a carved marble fireplace mantle and the notorious "attic bedroom" -- where Kevin had to spend the night with his bed-wetting cousin.
