Row of million-dollar mansions in Hollywood Hills are red-tagged as LANDSLIDE damages properties following torrential rainfall

A row of million-dollar mansions in California was red-tagged this weekend after a landslide damaged the luxury properties.

The homes, located on the 9200 block of Flicker Way in Hollywood Hills, were affected by significant ground movement in the area on Sunday, the Los Angeles Fire Department said.

Three homes were tagged by Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety officials due to the threat of a landslide that occurred behind the homes.

The collapsed hill, full of debris and mud, has shifted and seeped into the luxury properties, making them unsafe to live in, according to authorities.

No rescues were required and no injuries were reported when the latest landslide occurred due to extremely wet weather across the area.

It’s unclear who lives in the homes, but one of them, located at 9291 Flicker Way, sold for $3.5 million, according to a listing on Zillow.

Another property affected by the landslide, located at 9283 Flicker Way, sold for more than $3.6 million, according to Redfin.

The third house has not yet been identified. DailyMail.com contacted the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety.

A structure with a ‘red tag’ means the house has been seriously damaged to the extent that it is too dangerous to inhabit – resulting in a red tag on the property.

Aerial images made by FOX11Los Angeles showed the houses against a steep sand hill that has since seeped into the properties.

As the ground gave way, clumps of dirt have piled up the sides of the expensive homes, blocking the view from the windows.

On March 13, just before 3 a.m., another landslide took over a house in Sherman Oaks, a neighborhood of expensive homes about 12 miles northwest of downtown LA, after an outdoor pool dried up to take the weight on the hill. Reduce.

The destroyed house, which appeared to be in the middle of a renovation, was crushed while most of the roof lay on the ground and reduced to a jumble of wood.

The landslide also tore away the pool and patio of a second home, leaving the pool at a third home on the edge of a huge gorge.

An initial search found no victims, but several people were evacuated from the area, the Los Angeles Fire Department said in a statement.

Firefighters were called to the 3700 block of North Ventura Canyon Avenue shortly before 3 a.m. Wednesday for reports of downed power lines and a fallen tree.

When crews arrived, they found that much of the hillside had shifted downward, severely damaging a mansion under construction.

Helicopter images of the area revealed the extent of the damage to the mansion. LAFD Capt. Adam Van Gerpen told it CBS News the slide caused “the whole thing to collapse in on itself.”

The property suffered serious damage, especially to the backyard pool, which developed cracks in the ground. The pool house was also hit by debris.

Inspectors have red-flagged the property, meaning it is so severely damaged it is too dangerous to inhabit.

On February 9, three multimillion-dollar homes in Southern California teetered on the edge of a cliff after a landslide that occurred that weekend.

The collapse occurred in Dana Point, Orange County, and sent mud and debris sliding down the 50-meter-high gorge.

No evacuations were ordered and engineering crews assessed the structural integrity of the homes – the only three were on the cliff.

Residents of the affected properties were advised to remain vigilant and prepare for the looming possibility of relocation.

The three affected homes were at the mercy of Mother Nature, although the rains that recently flooded the region appear to have passed. They cost approximately $12.8 million, $13 million and $15.9 million, and are at risk of ending up in the Pacific Ocean.

At the base of the cliff, remnants of the large area of ​​land that fell could be seen.

A portal to the Dana Point Caves lay intact a few hundred yards to the left of the collapse, along with the stretch of beach Killebrew had mentioned.

The trio of houses above, a symbol of status in the prosperous region, occupied a precarious spot next to the Ocean Institute – another popular tourist attraction.

No one was down there when the debris fell, after heavy rains saturated the region and led to numerous landslides and mudslides.

The landslide fell much of the cliff onto the base of the most expensive house in the complex, a $15.9 million four-bedroom behemoth registered to a local radiologist, 82-year-old Lewis Bruggeman, it emerged from the data.

He appears to run his practice from home and has over 56 years of medical experience.

The same day, 13 miles south along the Pacific coast, part of a dead-end road on Avenida Columbo fell about five feet due to a mudslide that sent mud and debris at least 150 feet down.

The area was already affected by unstable ground, with one home at the site of an active landslide that had been going on for decades, said Dave Rebensdorf, the city’s public works director.

Residents in both areas were advised to pay close attention as they continue to grapple with the impact of these natural disasters.
