Celebrity Homes

'Real Housewives of New York City' star Erin Lichy is being dragged to court over a debt ... her landlord claims she and her husband owe five figures in unpaid rent, plus interest.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Erin and her husband, Abraham Lichy, owe $43,950 in unpaid rent for their Big Apple loft.

The landlord says Erin and Abraham have rented their two-story apartment since July 2019 but claims the couple failed to pay the agreed rent and other charges between October 2021 and July 2023 ... racking up a substantial balance.

Erin and Abraham's landlord claims their lease called for them to pay a monthly rent of $13,500 -- due on the first of each month -- for the period in question, but they often paid late, didn't pay late fees, bounced checks and sometimes didn't pay rent at all.

Now, the landlord is going after the Lichys for $43,950 plus interest ... in addition to $12,900 to cover the landlord's legal fees in the case.

We're told the reason two months of rent was being withheld was due to an agreed upon abatement ... due to persistent rodents, unsanitary issues and a nonfunctioning elevator which lasted for several months.

Erin and Abraham are stunned by the lawsuit, because they tell TMZ ... the landlord wrote a glowing letter of recommendation for them when they moved out.

Abigail Ratchford had a terrifying situation unfold this weekend -- when cops say 3 goons broke into her freaking house ... this while she was still INSIDE!

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the longtime Instagram model -- who has over 9 million followers -- was hanging out at her L.A.-area property Saturday evening when her house alarm went off while she was in there.

We're told 3 men had attempted to burglarize her home ... smashing through a large window from her backyard and slinking on in -- but running away before having their way with the place. Our sources say it appears either the alarm or the sounds from inside scared them off.

Cops took a report and are now investigating. BTW, this was all caught on surveillance video taken from a camera Abigail set up on her patio ... and the footage, obtained by TMZ, is wild. You can see these dudes brazenly smash the glass, and all enter the premises.

Now, in terms of how AR herself experienced all this -- sources close to her tell us she's totally freaked out and for good reason ... as this could've gotten ugly fast.

We're told Abigail was upstairs at her house and watching a movie when the guys came crashing through her sliding glass door ... but she luckily never came face to face with them. Still, our sources say the idea of her coming downstairs for a drink that evening and running into the three men absolutely terrifies her.

Abigail Ratchford vivió una situación aterradora este fin de semana cuando la policía dice que tres matones irrumpieron en su casa, ¡esto mientras ella todavía estaba adentro!

Fuentes policiales le dicen a TMZ que la modelo de Instagram -que tiene más de 9 millones de seguidores- estaba pasando el rato en su propiedad en el área de Los Ángeles el sábado por la noche cuando la alarma de su casa se disparó mientras ella estaba allí.

Nos dicen que tres hombres habían intentado robar en su casa, entrando a través de una ventana grande de su patio trasero, pero huyendo finalmente. Nuestras fuentes dicen que la alarma o los ruidos del interior los asustaron.

La policía ha denunciado los hechos y está investigando. Todo esto fue capturado en un video de vigilancia tomado por una cámara del patio de la modelo y las imágenes, obtenidas por TMZ, son aterradoras. Se puede ver como estos tipos descaradamente rompen el vidrio y entran a la propiedad.

Ahora, en términos de cómo la propia Abigail se ha tomado todo esto, fuentes cercanas a ella nos dicen que está totalmente asustada y con razón.

Nos dicen que Abigail estaba arriba en su casa viendo una película cuando los hombres entraron a través de su puerta corrediza de cristal, por suerte nunca se encontró cara a cara con ellos. Sin embargo, nuestras fuentes dicen que la idea de bajar las escaleras para tomar una copa esa noche y encontrarse con los tres hombres la aterroriza.

The Burger King employee who went viral for getting a mediocre goodie bag in recognition of 27 years without missing work is finally seeing his dedication pay off ... in a massive way.

Kevin Ford tells TMZ … he bought a house on Dec. 13 with money raised from the GoFundMe his daughter set up for him in the wake of last summer's online fame.

Kevin says he walked away with about $350,000 from the crowdsourcing fund -- it raised almost $500K but GoFundMe took a sizeable chunk -- and he used about half to buy a place in Pahrump, Nevada for $177,000.

Kevin's new place has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and is 846 square feet ... with a covered front deck, fenced-in yard and views of the surrounding mountains. He says he's gonna invest more money into the place too.

With the rest of his GoFundMe cash, Kevin says he gave his daughter a chunk so she could put it toward a home for herself and his grandkids ... and he put the rest away for retirement.

Remember ... Kevin went viral back in June 2022 when his employer gave him a goodie bag with random candies to celebrate him going 27 years without missing a day on the job.

Kevin's daughter piggybacked off his viral moment and set up a GoFundMe so he could visit his family in Texas ... and David Spade was among the big-money donors.

Naturally, Kevin is still working at BK, but there's been a big change -- he says he's now missed one day ... for an appearance on the "Today" show.

Kevin says his new digs are about an hour away from work, but he likes driving so he doesn't mind the long commute.

It's pretty incredible ... Kevin tells us the viral fame literally saved his life. He says he was depressed and the support from strangers not only put a new roof over his head, but also saved his life.

El empleado de Burger King que se hizo viral por conseguir una miserable bolsa de golosinas en reconocimiento a 27 años sin faltar al trabajo, finalmente está viendo su dedicación rendir frutos.

Kevin Ford le dice a TMZ que compró una casa el 13 de diciembre con el dinero recaudado del GoFundMe que su hija creó para él a raíz de la fama en línea del verano pasado.

Kevin dice que se fue con alrededor de $350.000 del fondo de crowdsourcing que recaudó casi $500K, pero GoFundMe tomó una parte considerable y utilizó alrededor de la mitad para comprar un lugar en Pahrump, Nevada por $177.000.

El nuevo lugar de Kevin tiene tres dormitorios, dos baños y 846 pies cuadrados. Además, cuenta con un patio vallado y vistas a las montañas de los alrededores. Él dice que va a invertir más dinero en el lugar.

Con el resto de su dinero en efectivo  obtenido en GoFundMe, Kevin le dio a su hija una parte para que pudiera ponerlo en una casa para ella y sus nietos y puso el resto lejos para la jubilación.

Recordemos que Kevin se hizo viral en junio de 2022 cuando su empleador le dio una bolsa de golosinas con dulces al azar para celebrar que iba 27 años sin perder un día en el trabajo.

La hija de Kevin se aprovechó de su momento viral y creó un GoFundMe para que pudiera visitar a su familia en Texas y David Spade estaba entre los grandes donantes de dinero.

Naturalmente, Kevin sigue trabajando, pero ha habido un gran cambio, dice que ahora ha faltado un día... para aparecer en el programa "Today".

Kevin dice que sus nuevas excavaciones son alrededor de una hora de distancia del trabajo, pero le gusta conducir, por lo que no le importa el largo viaje.

Es bastante increíble... Kevin nos dice que la fama viral, literalmente, le salvó la vida. Él dice que estaba deprimido y el apoyo de extraños no solo puso un nuevo techo sobre su cabeza, sino que también salvó su vida.

Tom Brady's massive new home is seemingly nearing the end of construction, as new photos show the extent of the build taken on by contractors for the NFL legend.

The home is huge, no doubt, but it's the extent of accessories and add-ons that the finished project is set to contain that is really the shock factor.

According to Daily Mail -- the home is estimated to cost close to $11.5 million when all is said and done -- complete with a waterfront, a massive pool with spa, multiple gyms and room for plenty of cars in his garage.

Of course, Tom purchased the property back in 2020 when he was still married to Gisele Bundchen for a reported $17 million.

Tom's taken the last year off after retiring last season from the NFL, considered the best QB to ever do it. Don't worry though, the lack of work doesn't have him strapped for cash -- Tom's worth an estimated $500 million.

Not to mention, whenever he's ready for it, he's signed on with FOX as an NFL commentator for $375 million ... so ya, if he wanted, he could build the same house a bunch of times over.

Guitarist Frankie Sullivan -- a founding member of the band Survivor -- had his L.A. home burglarized ... and cops say the thieves made off with fancy watches worth a ton of dough.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... burglars smashed their way through the window at the "Eye of the Tiger" guitarist's San Fernando Valley home in the hills earlier this month, taking a bunch of timepieces, worth more than $300,000.

Cops think it was the work of a South American burglary crew that flies into the country to hit expensive homes -- several belonging to celebs -- and they allegedly use fire roads in the mountains to access the luxury properties.

Law enforcement is urging folks to put trail cams around their property, make sure the area is well-lit ... and put alarms on sliding glass doors and second-story windows. They say that's how the burglars are getting into the homes.

As we reported, Keanu Reeves' home was raided earlier this month, too ... and law enforcement sources now tell us the gun stolen from his property was a Glock pistol.

4:58 PM PT -- Charlie Sheen's neighbor, Electra Schrock, pleaded not guilty in Tuesday's arraignment ... and the court issued a criminal protective order, which requires her to completely stay away from the actor and his residence.

Charlie Sheen's neighbor has officially been charged with a felony after the cops accused her of trying to strangle the actor.

The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office charged Electra Schrock with one count of assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury -- and she's now being held on $75,000 bail, pending her arraignment.

TMZ broke the story … cops were called to Charlie's L.A. apartment last Wednesday after he called 911 to report that Schrock barged into his home and attacked him when he answered her knock on his door.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... Shrock ripped Charlie's shirt and attempted to strangle him before she returned to her own apartment on a higher floor.

Given the two are neighbors, police didn't have a tough time tracking down Shrock and arresting her. She was then booked into the L.A. County jail.

This may not have been the first time Shrock had a run-in with Charlie, who allegedly told officers the assault suspect recently squirted a sticky substance on his car.

The Kardashians had their splashy, annual XMAS soiree, and it was pretty glam.

Now that the brood is overrun with kids, it made sense to make it kid-themed, though still swanky. The adults wore cocktail attire, with Kim in a metallic blue, off-the-shoulder gown.

It seems like it was tons of fun, as Kim and the kids sled down a hill with fake snow ... sorry folks, it's the best we can do in SoCal. Check out the vid ... Paris Hilton is right behind Kim.

Even though the snow was fake, North and other kids were pretty chill, waiting their turns to sled down the hill.

At one point Kim and Paris sledded down the hill in an inflatable raft, and busted out laughing when they hit the bottom.

Babyface serenaded the crowd, as the guests, including David Geffen, Nicky Hilton, and O.T. Genasis watched.

And what's a party without Kardashian-branded products ... Coca-Cola bottles with "Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve Party 2023" custom written on the back. And check out the gingerbread house with "Candy Shop" written in script above the door.

Kim showed off the amazing forest in her backyard with snow-covered pine trees dotting the impressive property.

Las Kardashian celebraron su espléndida velada anual de Navidad y fue bastante glamurosa.

Ahora que la prole está plagada de niños, tenía sentido hacerla con temática infantil, aunque siempre elegante. Los adultos llevaban un atuendo de cóctel, con Kim en un azul metálico y un vestido con hombros descubiertos.

Parece que fue muy divertido, Kim y los niños se divirtieron en el trineo por una colina de nieve falsa, lo siento amigos, es lo mejor que podemos hacer. Échale un vistazo al video, Paris Hilton está justo detrás de Kim.

A pesar de que la nieve era falsa, Norte y los otros niños disfrutaban el frío y esperaron su turno para deslizarse por la colina.

En un momento dado, Kim y Paris bajaron en trineo por la colina en una balsa inflable y estallaron en carcajadas cuando llegaron al fondo.

Babyface le dio una serenata a la multitud, mientras los invitados, entre ellos David Geffen y Nicky Hilton, miraban.

Y lo que es una fiesta sin productos de marca Kardashian, Botellas de Coca-Cola con "Kardashian-Jenner Fiesta de Nochebuena 2023" personalizado escrito en la parte posterior. Y échale un vistazo a la casa de pan de jengibre con "Candy Shop" escrito en la escritura por encima de la puerta.

Kim mostró el increíble bosque en su patio trasero con pinos cubiertos de nieve que salpican la impresionante propiedad.

Kim Kardashian parece haber traído el invierno a su propio patio trasero, porque su casa parece algo sacado de una tarjeta de Navidad.

La estrella de reality fue a lo grande con la decoración de su propiedad en Hidden Hills, lugar que ha sido famoso últimamente debido a las grandes fiestas y la Navidad no fue diferente. Mientras que el interior de su casa es genial, el exterior es sin duda espectacular.

Échale un vistazo... Kim tiene un montón de abetos gigantes alineados en todo su patio, hasta el punto de que parece un bosque salvaje. Real o falso... ¿quién demonios sabe?

El caso es que es impresionante... y la "nieve" adicional que cubre el suelo es un bonito detalle. Ella dio un pequeño recorrido por la pasarela a través de esta magnífica escena y es hermoso.

Por cierto, el interior de la casa también está decorado, y como puedes imaginar, hay regalos por todas partes, especialmente bajo el árbol. De hecho, parece que ella es la anfitriona este año, porque hay regalos de todas sus hermanas y demás personas y todos están envueltos de forma única.

Como se puede apreciar, los regalos de Kendall y Khloe tienen diferente decoaración y papel de regalo. Kim, por supuesto, resalta con su nueva marca SKIMS.

Como hemos dicho, el resto de la casa está cubierta de luces y adornos, pero teniendo en cuenta el diseño interior único de Kim, casi se siente como una especie de museo.

De todos modos, solo una razón más para hacer algo a lo grande y ciertamente lo hizo.

Kim Kardashian seems to have brought the winter wilderness to her own backyard -- 'cause her house looks like something straight out of a Christmas card ... of the Hallmark variety.

The reality star went all out decorating her Hidden Hills property -- which is kind of a theme this year with all the big holidays. Christmas turned out to be no different ... and while the inside of her home is cool, the outside is certainly a thing of beauty to behold.

Take a look ... KK's got a bunch of giant firs lining her entire yard here, to the point that it looks like a forest, of sorts, right there on the grounds. Real or fake ... who the hell knows?

Point is, it's damn impressive ... and the extra "snow" she's got coating the ground is a nice touch too. She gave a little tour of the walkway through this gorgeous scene, and it's neat.

BTW, the interior of her crib is decked out as well -- and as you can imagine there's presents all over the place, but especially under her tree(s). In fact, it looks like she might be hosting this year, 'cause there's gifts from all her sisters and whatnot, all uniquely wrapped.

As you can see ... everyone from Kendall to Khloe has different wrapping paper and their own style of furnishing the presents. Kim's of course, is pretty interesting -- SKIMS-covered.

Like we said, the rest of the house is covered in lights and ornaments as well ... but considering Kim's one-of-a-kind interior design -- it almost feels sorta museum-like.

Anyway, just another reason for her to go all out, we suppose -- and she certainly did.

Mookie Betts is on the move, but he ain't leaving the Dodgers ... TMZ Sports has learned he's now got a giant new house to live in!!

Real estate sources tell us ... the MLB superstar just copped a $15 million pad this month in Encino -- just a few miles away from Dodger Stadium.

We're told the place is sweet ... featuring super sleek and modern lines.

Unclear of how many beds, baths and bells and whistles it all officially comes with -- though it sits on 2 acres ... so there's plenty of room for Mookie to work on his base-running skills if he wants.

Of course, Mookie's been living in L.A. for a while now -- he was traded to the City of Angels prior to the 2020 season -- though after having his second child earlier this year ... seems he was in need of an upgrade.

We're told Craig Knizek and Scott Gorelick of The Agency repped the seller ... while Morgan Trent of AKG | Christie's International Real Estate repped the baseball player in the sale.

Mookie Betts está en movimiento, pero no está dejando a los Dodgers ... ¡¡¡TMZ Sports ha indagado que tiene una nueva casa gigante para vivir!!

Fuentes de bienes raíces nos dicen que la superestrella de la MLB acaba de comprar un palacio de $15 millones este mes en Encino, a pocos kilómetros de distancia del Estadio de los Dodgers.

Nos dicen que el lugar es dulce, con líneas super elegantes y modernas.

No está claro cuántas camas, baños, campanas y silbatos tiene, pero cuenta con 2 acres, así que hay un montón de espacio para que Mookie trabaje en sus habilidades de base-running si quiere.

Por supuesto, Mookie ha estado viviendo en Los Ángeles desde hace un tiempo. Fue traspasado a la Ciudad de los Ángeles antes de la temporada 2020, aunque después de tener a su segundo hijo a principios de este año parece que necesitaba una actualización.

Nos dicen que Craig Knizek de The Agency representó al vendedor, mientras que Morgan Trent de AKG | Christie's International Real Estate representó al jugador de béisbol en la venta.

Cardi B and Offset are bein' taken to court over the Beverly Hills house they were renting ... 'cause they allegedly skipped out on rent and left the place trashed.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Cardi and Offset lived in the swanky pad starting in early 2022, but they bounced from the property in October -- without giving a notice.

According to the landlord, they were behind on rent and utility payments when they left.

Making matters worse, the owners say they found "significant property damage" once the couple left ... including permanent scratches in the tile floors, rugs, and curtains, broken furniture, holes in the walls, and burn marks on things like tables, counters, and cabinets.

They estimate the cost of damages to be around $85,000 ... and the landlord says they've tried multiple times to resolve the issue, but to no avail.

The property drama comes on the heels of Cardi and Offset's relationship being on the ropes ... as you know, Cardi unleashed a profanity-laced tirade accusing Offset of treating her poorly and said they were no longer an item.

Cardi B y Offset están siendo llevados a juicio por la casa de Beverly Hills que estaban alquilando, ya que supuestamente se saltaron el alquiler y dejaron el lugar destrozado.

De acuerdo con los documentos obtenidos por TMZ, Cardi y Offset vivieron en el palacio desde principios de 2022, pero se fueron de la propiedad en octubre, sin dar un aviso.

Según el propietario, tenían atrasados la renta y el pago de los servicios básicos cuando se fueron.

Para empeorar las cosas, los propietarios dicen que encontraron "daños significativos en la propiedad" cuando se fue la pareja, incluyendo arañazos permanentes en los pisos de las baldosas, alfombras y cortinas, muebles rotos, agujeros en las paredes y marcas de quemaduras en cosas como mesas, mostradores y armarios.

Se estima que el costo de los daños es de alrededor de $85.000 y el propietario dice que han intentado resolver el problema varias veces, pero ha sido en vano.

El drama de la propiedad viene después de que la relación entre Cardi y Offset esté contra las cuerdas. Como saben, Cardi se descargó con el rapero en un furioso video en donde lo acusaba de tratarla mal y afirmaba que ya no estaban juntos.
