Kylie Jenner Easy Come, Easy Go ... Lists $5M Lot Only 10 Mo. Later
Kylie Jenner wants to turn a big pile of dirt she bought into more cash -- 'cause she's listing her $5 million lot for a bit more than she purchased it for ... just 10 months later.
Kylie recently put her nearly 1.5-acre plot of land that she swooped up last October on the market for $5.55 million. It's being marketed as an empty space in Hidden Hills ... perfect for developers.
We broke the story ... Kylie dropped a cool $5 mil for the corner lot -- which is adjacent to her Hidden Hills home -- with a plan to build a garden and possible barn with horses. She had 3 acres to play with at the time -- now she's back to just about an acre and change.
Kylie clearly had a change of heart on the farm thing. A lot has changed for Kylie since last Fall -- she's had her kid, and she also made Forbes' list for youngest self-made billionaire. Some thing's gotta give in business.
Kylie's go-to realtor, Tomer Fridman of Compass, along with Marc Shevin, have the listing.

Demi Lovato Home Burglary Scheme Uncovered by Cops
Rehab was clearly the right place for Demi Lovato, but it also meant her empty house could be a jackpot for criminals ... which we've learned was exactly the plan for some would-be burglars.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a group of thieves were arrested shortly after we broke the news Demi was out of the hospital and in an out-of-state rehab facility.
We're told the arrests were not related to Lovato, but upon investigation ... cops found electronic communications among the crew about hitting up her house while she was away.
Our sources say the LAPD was notified right away of the perps' plan and added extra patrols around Demi's house ... to keep an eye on any suspicious activity. So far, it's worked ... no break-ins or burglaries at Demi's place since she's been gone.
Our sources say the burglars were not targeting celebrities per se ... the victims included normies, but Demi was clearly on their radar.
We broke the story ... Demi suffered a near-death drug overdose last month and had to be revived with Narcan. Sources tell us her OD was likely triggered by Oxycodone laced with Fentanyl.
The singer went to rehab after being hospitalized for more than a week. She left rehab for a few days to see a mental health and addiction specialist in Chicago, but she's now back in the facility.
Hopefully her home will be untouched when she returns.

Wiz Khalifa's home was broken into early Saturday morning, but luckily a house sitter was there to scare off the wannabe burglars before they did too much damage ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell us ... 2 men wearing hoodies broke some glass and entered Wiz's house in the San Fernando Valley around 4:45 AM. We're told a member of the rapper's team was staying there and heard the noise, and when he came down ... the perps took off.
Our sources say no property was taken as far as they know, and the only damage is the broken glass. Police are still investigating.
This comes on the heels of another L.A. burglary at a celeb's home. We broke the story ... Christina Milian and her famous French BF, M. Pokora, had their home broken into Friday at around 1PM. The crooks made off with jewelry and watches valued at around $100k ... maybe higher.

Christina Milian, M. Pokora Latest Burglary Victims
Christina Milian and her famous French BF M. Pokora were the latest L.A. burglary victims ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the crooks broke into their San Fernando Valley home Friday at around 1 PM. They got inside by smashing a side door and beelined it for the bedroom, where they stole jewelry and watches.
Our sources say the best cops can determine ... the take was around $100,000 but it could be higher.
Christina and M. Pokora, a singer/songwriter who is super famous in France, were out of the country.
Here's the twist. In this case the burglar alarm was on, so the thieves beat the security team and the LAPD.
It's the latest in a string of celebrity burglaries. Most recently a burglar tried to hit Bella Thorne's house this week by breaking a window, but she went outside and scared him off. John Mayer was hit 2 weeks ago, and the burglars made off with somewhere between $100,000 and $200,000.
Although cops are not saying the thieves are specifically targeting celebs ... it seems pretty obvious. Famous people often Instagram where they are, and when they're not at home the burglars clearly know it.
As for Milian's burglars, cops are on the hunt.

'HIMYM' Star Josh Radnor Neighbors Get Court Order He's Harassing Us, And He's Shirtless!!!
"How I Met Your Mother" star Josh Radnor has been ordered by a judge to stay 7 yards away from his next door neighbors -- seriously -- after the neighbors claimed Josh was making their lives miserable.
It all started over a gigantic deck Josh built on his property that extended over the neighbor's land. Josh has an easement over the area where he built the deck, but the family next door has filed a lawsuit claiming he had no right to build the deck in the first place.
The family got permission from the city to tear it down because apparently Josh didn't get the necessary permits. Josh went to court and got a judge to block the neighbors from destroying the deck.
That said, the family next door tells TMZ, Josh and his roommate scream at them every time they go outside. The neighbors say Josh and his roommate take pics of them and rail on them. They also claim Josh intimidates any workers who come onto the family's property.
For some reason, the neighbor has a problem that Josh sometimes comes out shirtless.
Whatever ... the family just got a temporary restraining order, requiring Josh to stay 7 yards away from them when they're at home. He also can't harass or intimidate them.
We reached out to Radnor's reps ... so far, no word back.
Justin Bieber Drops $5M On Canada Mansion ... With Private Horse Track
Justin Bieber is one step closer to being a pro jockey ... dude just bought a crazy huge $5 MILLION mansion in Ontario, Canada with it's own private horse racing track.
The property is 101 ACRES -- a skosh smaller than the size of Vatican City (for real, look it up) -- and this place has it all!!!
Private lake access? Check. Two story temperature controlled wine room? Check. Private gym? Check. Heated floors? YOU KNOW BIEB'S GOT HEATED FLOORS!!
Oh, and did we mention ... the place has its own private equestrian facility with stables and a 5/8 mile race track!!!!
The living space is 9,000 square feet -- with 4 bedrooms, 6 baths, 3 fireplaces, game room and movie theater (obvi). It's also got a 3 car garage.
We're told Bieber closed on the place on Monday -- no word on when he plans on moving in ... but the sooner, the better.
Unclear if Bieber plans to make the home his main residence with fiancee Hailey Baldwin -- or just a place to get away and hang by the lake.
Either way, it's another baller piece of real estate Bieber can add to his portfolio.

Ex-UFC Fighter Pulls Gun On Home Intruder ... In Crazy Standoff
Insane moment for ex-UFC fighter Dean Lister ... who pulled a firearm on a man who was robbing his house -- and the whole thing was captured on video.
42-year-old Lister -- who was 13-7 as an MMA fighter -- says he arrived to his San Diego home around 8 PM on Saturday when he saw a tatted up bald dude inside of his kitchen.
The man was super sketchy and told Lister he thought the home was a church -- but when Lister continued to press, the man picked up a hammer in a very threatening manner.
"Off camera, I drew a sidearm and he stopped advancing toward me," Lister said.
"I LET him escape with his life through a window. Cops said I was legally good if I killed him."
Lister says the man stole a bunch of cash out of the home and he published the video publicly in the hopes someone can identify the INTRUDER.
"Police are on it but if anyone knows who he is please help me,,, thank you very much."
FYI, Lister has been through crazy situation before -- saying he lived "right in the middle of a serious combat zone" while living in Panama as a kid.

Bella Thorne Home Alone When Burglar Pays a Visit
Bella Thorne had a huge scare Tuesday night, when someone tried to break into her house.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, Thorne was home alone in her San Fernando Valley home at around 10 PM when someone from the outside broke a window.
We're told Bella did what she probably should not have done ... she went outside to see what was up. Fortunately for her, that was enough to scare the would-be burglar away. We're told he hightailed it from the house and fled into the darkness.
Bella called the cops and they raced up to her home, but the burglar was nowhere in sight.
It's ironic ... Bella is an habitual Instagrammer, posting when she's out and about, yet in this case the burglar tried to hit when she was home.
It's the latest in a string of celebrity burglaries. Most recently, John Mayer's L.A. home was hit and the crooks got away with 6 figures worth of items, including watches from his priceless collection.

'Brady Bunch' House Lights, Camera, Action!!! HGTV Starts Shooting New Show
There's a bunch of camera activity at the famed 'Brady Bunch' house -- maybe the most its seen in more than 40 years -- as HGTV begins pre-production for a new TV show about the groovy pad.
The network started shooting Tuesday at the crib in Studio City, CA ... capturing establishing shots of the exterior, and using a drone for aerial pics.
Although HGTV's production crews probably aren't getting a warm welcome from pissed off neighbors -- it's full steam ahead with chronicling the redesign of the iconic home. We're told filming notices have been distributed around the block.
As we reported ... HGTV beat out Lance Bass in a bidding war for the property.
We've also learned the house hit the market because the owner died and her family wanted to sell to the highest, most qualified bidder. Kelsey McCallister, the granddaughter of the previous owner, will help produce the show and even hopes to be one of the hosts.
Uniformed guards started standing watch this week outside the property.

EXCLUSIVE
- 1 shares
Shaunie O'Neal believes the guys who tried to rob her house were definitely using social media to case the joint ... and tells TMZ Sports she's laid down some new rules so it doesn't happen again.
The "Basketball Wives" creator busted some dopes trying to bust into her L.A. house this weekend, and used the Ring home security system to put the fear of God in them, making the would-be burglars retreat.
We talked to Shaquille O'Neal's ex-wife -- and she told us she recognized one of the perps from a previous attempted break-in ... and believes they're using social media to see if the coast is clear.
"I'm assuming though that they are watching social media because the first time he tried we were all in Vegas."
Shaunie says the family has been shaken by the events ... and they've decided to change the way they post to make sure no one knows when they are home, or out on the go.
"That was our family meeting last night -- no more posting current situations. We can't do that."
It wouldn't be the first time it's happened ... celebs like Kim Kardashian have toned down their social media exploits after feeling crooks used it against them, choosing to play it safe so they don't end up sorry.
"If someone really wants to get in your house they have that moment to do that. It's how safe do you really feel?"
