Jeff Bezos buys mansion for $165 MM

Jeff Bezos, the founder, CEO, and president of Amazon, reportedly purchased this 9.4-acre showpiece in Beverly Hills for $165 MM.

It superseded the $150MM record set just 3 months ago with the sale of the Chartwell Mansion, which was most well known for being the Clampett’s home in The Beverly Hillbillies.

It was built in 1937 by Jack L. Warner, a co-founder of Warner Bros.

It was designed by Roland Coate in a neoclassical style and has a total of 8 bedrooms and 9 baths.

It is a 13,600 square foot Mansion, with a swimming pool, nine-hole golf course, tennis court, and garages with their own gas pumps.

The seller is American business magnate, producer, film studio executive, and philanthropist, David Geffen.

When do we hand over possession of the home to the new buyer?

Let's say an unexpected emergency comes up and you, the seller, must now stay at your property longer than what you agreed to when you initially accepted the buyer's offer to purchase your home.

You and the buyer, during escrow, can make an amendment to the contract to change the day when you hand over possession of your home.

As long as it's put in writing in a amendment and signed off on by all parties involved, possession of the property can change hands on whatever day everyone agrees to.
