Jho Low's Real Estate Portfolio
Jho Low has one property featured on Housle, located in Los Angeles, CA. The property is valued at $18,500,000.
Taek Jho Low (Chinese: 刘特佐; born 4 November 1981) is a Malaysian businessman and fugitive who has been wanted by Interpol since 2016 for his key role in the 1MDB scandal. Low is alleged to have stolen over US$4.5 billion from the state-owned company 1MDB.
Born into a wealthy Malaysian family, Low graduated from University of Pennsylvania in 2005. He is the beneficiary of numerous discretionary trust assets which allegedly originated from payments out of the 1MDB fund. Low has maintained his innocence and contends that Malaysian authorities are engaging in a campaign of harassment and political persecution due to his prior support of former prime minister Najib Razak, whose part in the 1MDB scandal had led to Najib being convicted on seven counts of abuse of power, money laundering and criminal breach of trust.
Low was born a citizen of Malaysia, and from 2011, has also held citizenship in Saint Kitts and Nevis, which was revoked in 2019, and Cyprus from 2015 until it was revoked in 2024.
Known as a businessman, Jho Low's real estate choices reflect the broader trends in celebrity property ownership. California remains the most popular state for celebrity real estate, with its combination of entertainment industry proximity, year-round weather, and diverse property options from beachfront Malibu estates to secluded Beverly Hills compounds and Bel Air mansions.

Celebrity Real Estate Market Context
Celebrity home prices are influenced by many of the same factors as any residential property: location, size, condition, and local market trends. However, celebrity-owned homes often carry an additional premium due to the custom renovations, high-end finishes, and unique features that famous owners invest in. Privacy features such as gated entries, high walls, and security systems are also common and add to the overall value.
When celebrities sell their properties, the transaction often attracts significant media attention, which can drive competitive bidding. Conversely, some celebrity homes sit on the market longer than expected due to highly personalized designs that may not appeal to all buyers. Understanding these dynamics makes celebrity homes particularly interesting for the Housle game, where you must weigh all these factors to make your higher-or-lower guess.
