New owner of house where Matthew Perry died explains purchase: ‘Honoring talent’

Anita Verma-Lalliana film producer involved in the real estate market, is the new owner of the house where Matthew Perry passed away in Los Angeles.

In an Instagram post, she wrote about her decision to buy the Pacific Palisades mansion: “We are so excited to share that we purchased a house in Los Angeles earlier this month! Our agent, Brooke Elliotsaid she had an amazing ‘off-market’ property that she really wanted us to see,” he said in the caption.

“The moment I walked into the house, I completely fell in love with the features, especially the view of the Pacific Ocean. We knew it was the house and we decided to make an offer immediately,” he continued.

As a real estate developer, I believe that every property has a story that we may or may not know, and each home carries the energy that the current owner brings to it. I’m Hindu, and it’s customary to say a blessing and a prayer whenever we buy a new house. We were very lucky to have our Panditji from Arizona come to the house to do the blessing.

Making mention of Perry, Verma-Lallian added, “We chose to honor the positive aspects of the previous owner’s life, his immense talent, and all the joy he brought to so many people. The decision to purchase the home had nothing to do with the previous owner, just our love for the home”.

“We plan to keep some of the design elements. The Batman logo in the pool will definitely stay,” he joked. “It’s a piece of paradise, full of light and the perfect place to be our vacation home. We can’t wait to create new memories there.”
