Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs selling Los Angeles mansion for $70 million after Homeland Security raid: report
Sean “Diddy” Combs is getting out of Dodge.
The disgraced music mogul, 54, reportedly put his Holmby Hills home up for sale less than four months after Homeland Security raided it in connection to a sex trafficking investigation.
According to TMZ, Combs is trying to sell his pricey pad off-market for $70 million — over $30 million more than he paid in 2014.
The Los Angeles mega-mansion has 17,000 square feet of living space and features eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, a 35-seat theater, a gym and a wine room.
The acre-sized property also includes a smaller 3,000-square-foot guest home.
The outdoor selling points include a lagoon-style swimming pool with an underwater swimming tunnel, a basketball half-court and manicured gardens.
Although the house was built over a decade ago, the “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper has kept the interior up to date with modern finishes.
However, the home’s hefty price tag and history might make it a tough sell.
Federal law enforcement agents were seen arriving at the mansion back in March with their guns drawn.
Once inside, the officers ransacked the home, ripping out electronics and combing through every square inch in hopes of finding evidence relating to their ongoing investigation.
Photos of the messy aftermath showed the feds had thrown clothes and shoes on the ground, turned furniture upside down and left safes open with scattered documents. Even Combs’ children’s rooms had been searched with teddy bears and other stuffed animals sprawled on the floor.
At the time, a source told us there was “significant property damage” to his homes in Los Angeles and Miami following the raids.
While his lawyer claimed the search was an “excessive show of force,” a grand jury is currently hearing evidence about the case and deciding whether there are grounds for indictment, per TMZ.
Amid his legal drama, an insider told TMZ that Combs wants to move out of California for good.
The rapper has spent most of his time in the Sunshine State since becoming the subject of numerous sexual assault lawsuits and other crimes.
His ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura opened the floodgates in November when she accused Combs of rape and decades-long abuse. The exes settled the suit just one day after it was filed.
At least six more people have come forward with accusations of sexual assault since then.
Although Combs vehemently denied all of the accusations, a video of the rapper beating and dragging Cassie in 2016 was released in May, corroborating some of her claims.
Despite Combs issuing an apology, Cassie’s legal team later slammed his “pathetic” attempt to save face.
