Billboard Heiress Lists $15 Million L.A. Starter House
James McClain Now that she’s spooned out a whopping $24 million for a brand-new residential extravaganza in L.A.’s princely Pacific Palisades area, formerly New York-based Van Wagner billboard heiress Hillary Thomas has no need for her other Palisades mansion, a smaller but still stunning and designer-done estate in the prestigious Riviera neighborhood pocket. The East Coast-style house has just been dropped onto the open market, carrying a pricetag that’s just a couple hairs under $15 million.Built new in 2015, Thomas acquired the house in 2018 with her husband, venture capitalist Brent Thomas, paying about $13.9 million for the premises through an LLC easily linked to her.
