Celebrity Real Estate Round Up - Housewife Edition
Sucks to be a housewife. I mean look, they only have one giant fountain!
Earlier this year, one of TV’s “Real Housewives of Orange County” got some experience being a real housewife of some other county. According to the Wall Street Journal, Jim and Alexis Bellino faced forclosure after failing to pay to over $83,000 on the 4,200-square-foot home they purchased in August of 2007.
The Orange County Register reports that Chase Bank helped the couple modify their loan so they would not be forced to move out and see their home sold at auction. Like many, the Bellinos bought their home when the real estate market was doing very well and then suffered as the market came crashing down around them.
Alexis isn’t the only housewife to have faced real estate troubles recently: Tamra Barney was forced to short sell her home at loss, Jeana Keough defaulted on her loan, and Lynne Curtin was nearly evicted four times.
They really are just like us, facing all the same things we do… and I guess with just a little bit of TV attention. Just like reality.
