As Sean “Diddy” Combs fights in a Manhattan courtroom, his Los Angeles estate is still waiting for a buyer.


The Bad Boy Records founder — who faces federal charges including racketeering, coercion and physical abuse — listed his Holmby Hills mansion for $61.5 million just a week before his


September 2024 arrest.


The 10-bedroom, 13-bathroom estate — which Combs purchased in 2014 for $39 million — has now languished on the market for more than 200 days, weighed down by the legal and public fallout


from his case.


The sprawling residence, nestled in one of Los Angeles’ most exclusive neighborhoods, boasts a slate of luxury amenities: a 35-seat movie theater, a disco ball-inspired sculpture, a grotto


pool, a traditional pizza oven, a guesthouse with recording studio and a spa facility.


Yet despite its pedigree and lavish features, interest from prospective buyers has been tepid.


One local real estate agent, speaking anonymously, noted the chilling effect Combs’ name has had on the listing. “I wish I could help, but no agents want to touch that house or be in any


stories related to the case or the listing,” they told the Daily Mail.


Kurt Rappaport, co-founder of the Westside Estate Agency who is representing the listing, declined The Post’s request for comment.


The mansion, which once hosted a 2017 Grammy Awards afterparty, has seen none of its former glory translate to offers. Industry insiders say the high asking price is misaligned with the


current climate.


The price is “ridiculous,” one expert told the outlet, citing the serious nature of the allegations against Combs.


In March, the listing briefly disappeared, only to reappear less than 12 hours later with the same asking price — suggesting that Combs is unwilling to entertain discounts.


Not everyone, however, has been deterred by the controversy.


Real estate investor Steven “Bo” Belmont, known for acquiring high-profile properties with reputational baggage, reportedly offered $30 million for the estate.


Belmont, who previously purchased Kanye West’s deteriorating Malibu home for $21 million, expressed confidence in turning around the property’s narrative.


“I want to remove the stigma and focus on the charming elegance of this remarkable property,” Belmont said in a statement at the time.


Still, few have even toured the home, and none have moved forward with serious offers.


The mansion’s faltering market performance coincides with Combs’ ongoing federal trial, which began on May 5 in Brooklyn.


Prosecutors allege that since 2008, the music mogul orchestrated a criminal enterprise using his fame and resources to abuse and control women. The government claims Combs held multi-day


drug- and sex-fueled events — known among his circle as “freak offs” — and used footage of these encounters to blackmail victims.


Graphic testimony and images presented this week further underscore the case’s severity.


Though Combs’ former partner, singer Cassie Ventura, testified that the Los Angeles property was not the site of these gatherings, public perception appears less forgiving. The association


between the scandal and the estate has made the home a tough sell, even in a high-end market.


Meanwhile, Combs remains in custody as the trial unfolds, pleading not guilty to all charges.
