Inside Katy Perry’s Yearslong Battle Over a $15 Million California Home

Listen to article(2 minutes) “I know a place, where the grass is really greener,” sings pop star Katy Perry in her 2010 hit “California Gurls.” On a November morning in Perry’s hometown of Santa Barbara, Calif., that seemed to be the case. On a gated estate spanning more than 2 acres in the coveted enclave of Montecito, the only sound was the gurgling of the fountains. Lime trees and rosebushes ringed a large, grassy lawn. The spacious, circa-1930 house was backed by green mountains, and the Pacific Ocean and Channel Islands could be seen through a gap in the towering hedges encircling the compound.

A Big Legal Defeat for the Realtors

The National Association of Realtors has objected to our editorials challenging its anti-competitive business model, but what do you know. On Tuesday a federal jury found the Realtors liable under U.S. antitrust laws for conspiring to fix prices in the class-action case Burnett v. NAR.Missouri home sellers challenged a Realtor rule requiring seller agents to provide a blanket offer of compensation to a buyer’s broker to list a home on the association’s affiliated multiple-listing service (MLS). These databases of homes for sale are similar to stock exchanges in that they match brokers and sellers. They are also de facto monopolies.Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
