Off the Market

Property records show the Holmby Hills estate was delisted on Dec. 24, ending a months-long attempt to sell for $61.5 million the home where Combs’ infamous “freakoff” parties took place. The reason for the removal was not disclosed. Realtor.com said it has contacted a spokesperson for Combs for comment.

The delisting comes about two months after Combs was sentenced to roughly four years in federal prison following convictions on two counts related to transporting individuals for prostitution. He was acquitted of several more serious charges brought against him earlier this year after a highly publicized trial.

Combs, 56, first listed the Beverly Hills property in September 2024, days before his arrest in New York on charges that included sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to all charges, and his legal team argued that any sexual activity was consensual.

Following the trial, a jury found Combs not guilty on the most serious allegations but convicted him on the prostitution-related counts. In addition to the prison sentence, the judge imposed a $500,000 fine, citing Combs’ financial resources.

The 10-bedroom, 13-bathroom mansion gained international attention in March 2024 when it was raided by Homeland Security agents as part of a broader investigation into Combs’ activities. Federal agents also searched a Miami property owned by Combs at the same time.

Combs purchased the Beverly Hills home in 2014 for $39 million. Located in the exclusive Holmby Hills neighborhood, the estate spans roughly 17,000 square feet and includes extensive amenities, according to its listing. The property was marketed by celebrity real estate agent Kurt Rappaport.

The original listing made no reference to the legal issues surrounding its owner or the federal raid. Instead, it described the residence as one of the area’s most prominent estates, highlighting its size, privacy and resort-style features.

According to court filings and testimony presented during the trial, agents conducting the searches removed electronic devices and other materials from both the California and Florida homes. Prosecutors alleged the properties were used in connection with criminal activity, claims that were disputed by Combs’ defense team.

During the proceedings, jurors were shown photographs taken during the searches. Federal agents testified that investigators found a range of items, including weapons components, drugs and other materials they said were relevant to the case. Defense attorneys challenged the interpretation and significance of that evidence.

Despite the legal turmoil, Combs remained within his rights to sell the property, according to real estate and legal experts previously consulted by Realtor.com. However, they noted that any sale proceeds could be subject to court oversight, liens or forfeiture claims, depending on the outcome of the case and related civil actions.

“Generally speaking, he can sell his home, but the court may have a say in how the proceeds are handled,” said Cara Ameer, a California-based real estate agent, in an earlier interview.

Experts have also noted that high-profile criminal cases can complicate luxury home sales, particularly when properties are closely associated with widely reported investigations. The stigma surrounding a home’s history can affect both buyer interest and pricing.

The Holmby Hills estate includes a pool, gym, sauna, library, wine cellar and a large theater, according to the listing. The grounds feature landscaped gardens, a basketball court and outdoor entertaining areas.

It remains unclear whether Combs plans to relist the property at a later date, adjust the asking price or pursue other options such as renting it. Representatives for Combs have not publicly commented on the delisting.

The Beverly Hills mansion is one of several high-value properties Combs has owned over the years, including a Miami estate on Star Island that he purchased in 2021. For now, the future of the Holmby Hills home appears unresolved as Combs serves his sentence and continues to face additional legal challenges.
