SELLER: estate of Sue Mengers BUYER: Allen and Deborah Grubman LOCATION: Beverly Hills, CA PRICE: currently unknown YOUR MAMAS NOTES: It was only a few short weeks ago that Your Mama and just about every other celebrity real estate and/or property gossip went bat shit crazy about the legendary John Elgin-Woolf-designed Beverly Hills, CA residence of recently deceased Hollywood über-agent Sue Mengers.
