Rihanna selling troublesome mansion
Written by . Published: November 08 2011
Rihanna is selling off her Los Angeles mansion after filing a lawsuit over its "extensive construction defects" in August (11).
The Umbrella hitmaker has put her Beverly Hills home on the market for $4.5 million after purchasing it for $6.9 million in 2009, according to celebrity blogger Perez Hilton.
The R+B beauty sued after the eight-bedroom house allegedly
sustained severe damage following a storm last year (10). She
claims its former owner was aware of structural problems including
waterproofing defects but failed to take action.
In the lawsuit, Rihanna also named the inspector, engineers and
real estate agents involved in the sale.
