Rivani said no insurance company would cover the Malibu mansion for its full value, forcing him to turn to California’s insurer of last resort. But the state’s FAIR Plan coverage for residential policyholders maxes out at just $3 million.

In addition, he told the Journal that he expects to make mortgage and property tax payments that together will exceed $100,000 per month—despite the fact that the house is gone. (Homeowners affected by the fires can qualify for temporary relief on mortgage payments and property taxes.)

They have a mansion on what seems to be a rapidly shrinking, thin strip of land between the ocean and the highway. And a fire got it lol. Great foresight here

I can't believe someone got to sell it for $27M with that location. Your front yard is a 4-lane road. Not even a good boulevard with trees, just yellow stripes in the middle. Your back yard is 20ft of rocky beach during low tide. Fucking abysmal location.
