This week's top real estate headlines Rumor has it that two shockingly expensive new homes on Robin Drive in the Bird Streets neighborhood — one of them last listed at $52 million, the other at $42.5 million — are being sold together, in a single eye-popping deal, to the same mysterious billionaire buyer. The two-mansion deal would utterly obliterate the previous Hollywood Hills record set with Malaysian fugitive Jho Low's $39 million buy of a renovated home in 2012. Meanwhile in Los Feliz, Darren Criss is making real estate headlines once again. The "Assassination of Gianni Versace" actor upgraded his residential circumstances late last year to a family-sized home and is getting rid of his old digs to the tune of a little less than $1.7 million. Purchased for $1.2 million more than seven years ago, the actor is sure to make a "killing."
