Introduction to Sergey Brin’s New Purchase<\/h2>\n

One of the world\u2019s richest men has doubled down in Malibu. Google co-founder Sergey Brin has purchased a $50 million home in Malibu just doors away from another residence he owns, Gimme Shelter has learned.<\/p>\n

The Purchase and Its Significance<\/h2>\n

The purchase comes even as the Google co-founder moved a reported 15 of his limited liability companies, which manage his investments and assets, out of California ahead of the proposed California billionaire tax. This cliffside home first hit the market for $65 million in 2024 \u2014 just two years after the seller bought it for $20.75 million in 2022. It was last asking $58 million in December, according to records.<\/p>\n
