Overview
- Hines denied selling a defective home during a Thursday interview on Tomi Lahren Is Fearless and said Handler’s late complaints “don’t really hold water.”
- Handler has said inspectors uncovered serious foundation and other issues, calling the property “the most toxic environment” and saying those problems kept her from living there for years.
- Property records show Handler bought the Brentwood–Mandeville Canyon house for about $5.9 to $6 million through a trust on October 14, 2021, which she says kept the seller’s identity hidden.
- Both sides acknowledge Hines left a note with her phone number after the sale, and Hines has suggested Handler is seeking attention by reviving the story.
- The dispute is drawing added scrutiny because Robert F. Kennedy Jr. now runs HHS and because buyers typically depend on inspections to flag hidden defects before a sale.
