Lien Filed Against Kanye West's Malibu Home Amid Unpaid Wages Dispute

Contractor Tony Saxon's lawyer claims over $1 million in unpaid wages, potentially forcing the sale of the $53 million property.

Kanye West's Malibu home, listed for sale at $53 million, has a lien filed against it by contractor Tony Saxon's lawyer, Ron Zambrano, who claims West owes Saxon over $1 million in unpaid wages.
Saxon, who worked as a contractor and live-in caretaker for West's home, filed a lawsuit against West in September 2023 accusing him of disability discrimination, multiple labor code violations, unpaid wages and wrongful termination.
The lien could potentially force the sale of the property if West does not pay the owed wages.
The house, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning Tadao Ando, lacks doors, windows, plumbing, architectural finishes or an HVAC system and is not wired for electricity.
Jason Oppenheim, who is listing the house, estimates that the new owner would need to spend several million dollars to complete the interior of the home.
