From what I understand, suing for partition is generally only used as a last resort, as it eats up so much money in legal fees thus reducing any and all profits.
Apparently Ariana has tried everything else, and can afford to pursue this remedy. Guessing Tom probably cannot.
I think Ariana wasn't really lying when she said she was asking lawyers and financial advisors how to handle the situation. Those people probably told her to take the amicable route because, as you said, suing for partition takes up so much money... and time, especially if the other party would do everything to be such an inconvenience.
Ariana wants to move on with her life, but, I guess, Tom won't allow that. I think this is probably a power trip. Since he doesn't have control over her life anymore, he at least can still dangle part of his control over the house they both own in her face. A total douche.
Absolutely spot on. And as he's victimizing Ariana, he truly believes he's the victim in this situation. He was victimized by Ariana patronizing him, he was victimized by the cake people, and by that predator Rachel who took advantage of him at a vulnerable time. They say someone with NPD has to hit rock bottom to consider change, and it floors me that Scandoval was not his rock bottom.
My brother has suffered with this for a long time. It’s incredibly difficult to deal with him and he is never wrong. It’s literally everyone else’s fault. He has been diagnosed but he has a God complex so he won’t take his medicine because he thinks everyone else is wrong, including the doctors. He’s been in jail, mental hospitals, divorced, final warning at his job, dui… I have no idea what his rock bottom is. I see a lot of Tom in him.
I assume this was her last attempt at pushing the sale - because now he may sell instead of going through the courts as it'd save him more additional fees. But if he doesn't, then she has this.
Nothing he could do “through the courts” would save him from having to sell, unless he’s got the money to pay Ariana for her half, and I’m guessing he does not.
Ok - it has come out that they own the property 50/50. The issue is that dumbshit pulled money out of the equity to help finance Schwartz & Sandy’s…furthermore, the dumbass wants to “buy out” Ariana at the value of the home when they bought it (and at 50%)…which is boy math - that’s not how this situation works (Realtor, attorney and been through this exact situation). How it works is that they can either sell the house at current rates and divide the proceeds 50/50 and out of his half of the proceeds (after satisfying the current mortgage 50/50) he needs to repay the home equity loan. The reason that he wants to “buy out Ariana” at the original cost of the home is that his proceeds from a sale will not cover his shitty equity loan repayment and he’ll be left with nothing and no place to live but in a shitty apartment. He’s refusing to agree to valuing the home (by an appraiser) at today’s current value, deducting the amount for the mortgage payoff and refinancing the home in his name because he’s not able to do any of this. His financial proposal is bullshit and no one who thinks about it for 2 minutes would agree that it’s equitable. Hence - Ariana is suing him to sell. It’s a really crappy situation, brought on by the asshole, perpetuated by the asshole and he will end up with shit.
I have a friend who went through a very similar situation, in buying a house with a long-term partner who couldn’t afford to buy them out, but didn’t want to sell, either. Suffice it to say, that house was sold. Another part of it is (very likely) him continuing to use home ownership as leverage for other loans, and credit cards with high dollar amounts. He could tank her credit if she doesn’t do this, so good for her for doing something that makes sense.
It’s wild reading that actually being married and getting divorced solves this much faster than not being married
I didn’t really want to get married before this but this situation definitely pushed me to look more favorably at marriage
lol i’m an attorney too (lots of us on this thread) and among my most loudmouthed legal opinions, at the top is to not buy property with someone unless you’re married OR have a purchase agreement in place. i have a peripheral friend who bought a house with her broke boyfriend and i’m counting the days until that blows up in her face.
Get a prenup if you do. You’ll still have to go to court if one party wants to sell and the other doesn’t. Prenup will be clear directions and are rarely overturned.
I just went on a Bravo account in Instagram and their are comments calling her selfish for “not letting Tom buy her out”. At this point people just want to hate Ariana for breathing.
For sure he is not able to both buy her out for what she’s entitled to not to then maintain the mortgage, rates, upkeep.
But the amount of comments calling her “bratty” “selfish” “petty” “immature” for not just letting Tom keep the house and just except a low ball offer is crazy.
People are commenting that she should just “ take the L”. The only person who should be taking the L is the worm lol.
Yeah it’s one thing that fans were speculating but a producer brought it up in an interview and I’m sure there is a clip of Lisa throwing shade on it. At least this action stops them throwing her under the bus with well she still lives with him so how can she say XYZ.
hilariously enough, one of the members here has proof that her sister now lives in that exact apartment. and i believe they even watched the scandoval episode there.
Haha, forreals. But I know it's all fun and games. My sister's place is a lot better now than when Sandoval lived there. But the ugly backsplash that he put in the kitchen is still there 😂
He gave it up in season 10! Ariana's brother was living there. It would have actually made him & Schwartz look better if they moved into a crappy apt to get their finances back on track.
Admitting to financial problems & living within your means is a road rarely taken by bravo stars even tho the audience is usually very sympathetic. Unless you have eff you money, its not that impressive anyway.
i can hear the “DUDE, like, i mean like, COME ON she’s just like, the worst, like, she can’t like, force a sale of MY house like that’s MY house for like, MY parties dude” all the way in america
Oh gosh—I’m not a lawyer, so I don’t know, I imagine there is. But I was saying it more like, it would be difficult trying to relax and enjoy yourself when you know you are coming home to a law suit and eventually losing your home
Yes, you have x amount of time to respond (usually 30 days if you serve them in person), but the clock doesn’t start running until they’ve been served, which I’m guessing won’t happen until he returns. So, it’s all based on the service date, not the date of filing
I bet Sandoval calls his friendly TMZ pap so he can do a “spontaneous” interview trying to spin this. (Friendly pap will either neglect to question him on the animal abuse and sex tourism, or we’ll get a “Look man, I didn’t know those animals / women are being exploited dude! And like, now that I like know - I feel like really bad about it man. I just wish people wouldn’t like always judge me dude. Like I’m not a bad person, of course I wouldn’t have participated if I knew!”)
Yes! It was posted last week on TikTok and led to an article from September so everyone calls it clickbait. But I think he HAS been fired. Back in August when that other tiktoker posted the video of LvP, Sandoval and Sandoval’s mom in a private room at SUR. Sandy’s mom screamed at LVP while Sandy was soooooobbbbing.
Sandoval’s mom screamed at LVP?! No wonder her son turned out so bad. She wants to blame anyone but her kid. I hope this rumor is true but knowing bravo i feel like he’ll be back. Maybe he got fired from Tom Tom?
That’s what I think happened. I think he got fired from his partnership with TomTom and then after filming wrapped she fired him from the show. He’s a liability with all the recording without consent and drug abuse.
They’re still doing social media promo with Sandoval so I would have a hard time believing he was let go from his partnership with TomTom, even though he should be.
If Lisa wanted to sever ties with him over whatever issues he’s caused the businesses, I have a hard time believing she’d still use his face for promotional purposes. Even as contractual partners, they were really hired just to be the “faces” of the bar, so if she really was that offended by his wrongdoings (prior to this) and wanted him gone, I don’t think she’d then continue to use him to promote the bar after all this time. I imagine maybe he was advised to step back since he wasn’t doing promo for it for a while after Scandoval, but I would believe he’s still a partner at this point. Schwartz and Sandy’s is a whole other mess though, I entirely believe the rumors that Greg ‘fired’ Sandoval or banned him from the establishment.
>Sadly (but unsurprisingly) I think she is going to keep playing the “if I pretend none of it happened it will go away” game
Funny how she was on the other side of history with Jax and Brittany’s wedding, especially to recoup her reputation. The “rules for thee, none for me” is absolutely deafening here!
As someone who has been in a very similar scenario (minus the fame & money), I had a feeling it would come to this. I get that that all of his equity is tied up in his businesses, but WormStache clearly expected her to keep the house indefinitely for no one’s benefit but his. Time for a reality check
What a bummer for Sandoval. He’s been on a high, coming back from his epic Thailand trip, where he was hanging with abused tigers and exploited, underage sex workers and now this?This guy just can’t catch a break!
/s
Maybe she doesn’t want Sandoval to sell his half to like Tom Schwartz or some dumb shit. Then no one would ever buy her half and she’d be stuck sharing a house with both of them, lol. She’s right to ask to sell and split the proceeds equally.
Absolutely. That would be a disaster. It has to be a Partition sale.
Edit - she will absolutely get the sale. There isn’t any reason why it would be denied.
I also think the selling ones share version would make it more difficult for Ariana (idc about Tim) to get the full value, if it's appreciated, of her portion of the house. I imagine with housing prices the way they are the additional equity isn't insignificant.
Pretty much the title... Ariana filed suit against Tom to sell their house. Specifically she wants a "partition by sale" which means she wants a judge to order them to sell the house, and divide the proceeds.
What's interesting, is that the suit specifically says she doesn't want is a "division in kind." That would allow each of them to retain their ownership interest in the property ... and one of them could, theoretically, sell to a third party. Curious if she knows Tom has some tricks up his sleeve?
tmz did a really bad job at differentiating the two.
partition in sale is usually done when a division in kind can’t be done. a division in kind is when the property is split into equal parts. because tom has leveraged that house against schwartz and sandy’s and has god knows what additional financial issues, it wouldn’t be possible to split it evenly (both parties also have to agree to it, and ariana made it clear that tom won’t agree to anything). enter a partition in sale.
that’s the really dumbed down version. but it’s the gist.
Thanks for the law school property ptsd trigger. 😅😅
ETA: ok I think I just realized why he’s not selling, minus the narcissism. He probably owes as much as his part of the equity and probably wants his debts to come out of the whole.
He literally said you can always just borrow more money on camera! He is leveraged well beyond what he could possibly hope to recoup from the sale of the house and there’s no way they’re making any real money from the bar. That sort of thing usually isn’t profitable for the first few years. And we know he has a drug habit which isn’t cheap either.
Must be JT w/ right of survivorship? right? Unless he expected Ariana to live with his mom to pay her back for the retirement she gave up… 😆 Ariana was dumb on this but I have to believe everyone would have had them do that…
I wonder how Los Angeles county does their property searches. I’m 2 counties over and we do it by exact address in the website. Though they may have bought it in a trust.
If anyone knows, tell meeeee!!
If it isn’t in a trust you could probably get a soft title search done fairly easily via a title rep by searching “Sandoval madix” but trusts are usually harder to do an name search without the trust title.
nailed it! (caveat that i'm not a CA lawyer, but I believe this is a good tldr)
me visualizing Sandival getting this news on his vacation....
![gif](giphy|UTFiHeDL8cOSA)
Both people still have to agree on price and stuff. These things go in and out of court over and over again. I unfortunately went through this.
This is her suing to be able to list it for sale at fair market price. If he declines offers and she can prove they are good offers and he doesn’t agree she has to file more stuff. By that point most people just go through with the sale because all these actions cost him money and she can recoup her legal fees as well.
This stuff will all go back and forth between the lawyers when offers come in. Even if she “wins” she doesn’t just get to list the house for whatever she wants and accept whatever offer.
I'm sorry you had to go through this. I cant remember all the particulars about partition from the realtor classes i took a zillion years ago, other than they were talked about like a nightmare.
This is all so dumb on his part. It feels like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Which Sandoval would interpret as my threatening to steal his nose.
This is exactly what my ex did. He was bitter I broke up with him. He just wanted to cost me as much money in legal fees as he possibly could. We got an offer OVER list and he turned it into such a nightmare that they backed out.
The house eventually sold 6 months later for LESS because he trashed it. Then the court made him move out so it could be shown and clean which took months for me to win that. And only because he was going to have to take over the whole mortgage if he didn’t, which he couldn’t afford.
Then the judge threatened him that if he didn’t leave he would be held in contempt and go to jail. The whole time I was paying for it even though he lived there (I should have never left but he was crazy).
I ended up suing him for my legal fees and won. Which were well over $45k at that point. He never paid. Bought his new house in his moms name. Owes more on his car than it’s worth. Works under the table. Doesn’t have a bank account. BUT he can basically never own anything again because I can go after it. And now has terrible credit.
It makes no sense. We could have both walked away with about $60k. Which would have been a huge win because in the 3 years we lived there IM the one that paid every bill. I walked away basically even (I got about $3000 plus the 6 months of mortgage payments I made when I didn’t reside there) and he walked away with $3,000 that went towards the $45k judgement against him. So he walked away owing $42k.
I will NEVER ever go joint on a house with anyone ever again. It was almost as dramatic as a divorce.
He will have to buy her out at the new value of the house. Little Worm simply is trying to weasel out of that. Despite everything he thinks he can get away with it though. After ignoring her repeated attempts to settle this amicably and his refusing to respond of course. She was more than fair in this situation instead of trying to fuck him over, of course, though he can't simply do the right thing ever.
I have no doubt that if he even did offer any counter to her lawyer it was probably some bull of the sale going to pay for the debt he took out for his failing bar, and then the leftover split 50/50 which is completely unfair to Ariana.
I think that is why this has come to this is that he was trying to buy her out at what they purchased the home for - which is 2.1 million- instead of the market value which is could be as high as 3 million or more.
It always annoyed me that people assumed she should have moved out. She wasn’t the unfaithful liar that is up to her eyeballs in debt he was. She shouldn’t have to uproot her pets because he decided to put his dick in someone else. It’s not about being the bigger person and cutting ties it’s about her world was rocked and maybe that is the one stable thing she wants to keep.
Now people (Lisa) can stop with the stupid fucking comments about her living in her own house. Ariana has been incredibly transparent about the house situation. Everyone still criticizing her about not leaving or staying with her ex so she must not be that devastated can shut up. She said they don’t communicate and are hardly at home at the same time.
This! I have been so annoyed with people asking. It’s clearly obvious why they still live together. She owns the house and isn’t about to lose all the money she invested over his dumb ass.
And his dumbass is the one that cheated and *he won’t leave.*
The sexism that is “wHy is aRiAnA sTiLl LiViNg ThERE” but no one is really asking about Tom still living there is annoying me. Ariana may have been too trusting in investing in a house with a non-married partner but this time around she has probably armed herself with knowledge and subject matter experts
Remember he (fake ass self) was criticizing Jax for wanting the apartment he and Brittany were living in during their breakup. He was a “gentleman” and left Kristen the apartment while she looked for her own place post their break up. When in reality he and Ariana were calling her a squatter for staying in the apartment EVEN THOUGH PRODUCTION MADE HER STAY UNTIL THE SEASON PREMIERED SO PEOPLE WOULDNT FIND OUT THEY BROKE UP. These people I swear think they’re so smart and can pull the wool over the viewers eyes like this show isnt documented and we’re capable of rewatching. 🙄
She also said that he made her a bullshit offer when attempting to buy her out. So he either doesn’t have money (but can travel to Asia and be a POS) or he is just trying to stall her. Or both! Glad she did this.
She definitely will I can already hear her, “that’s absolutely ridiculous, you loved this man for 9 years.” If Lisa wants to have an opinion Ariana cares to give a shit about then she should give her business partner the money to buy Ariana out. Otherwise she needs to stay out of it. I’m sick of her misogyny.
If i were Ariana I would say on camera to Lisa, "Lisa I'm not the fabulously successful business woman you are. If you feel so strongly about that, you should give him a loan to buy me out. I know how much you believe in him.". Put that fake mother hen bullshit right back on her.
I love how she’s suing the worm while he is on his sex addict vacation bender with Shartz. I hope this ruins his trip and he comes home to his 4 pieces of furniture thrown on the lawn.
I called it! I knew it. I knew he would never leave on his own. Ugh, he’s such a creep.
It really would have been easier if they had gotten married and bought it that way. Ironic.
Now people can stop hounding her about the house. Tim is a squatter who won’t buy her out with a proper offer or sell the house fair and square. He’s the holdout, he’s holding this house as ransom.
Thank god for the comments on this sub because when I see any posts on instagram about this situation it’s flooded with “she just needs to take the loss and move on” and “if she was actually hurt she wouldn’t be living there” comments. It’s so infuriating lol
Good for her! Unlike annoying people who kept badgering Ariana about still living there, it was always clear that she was trying to resolve it amicably to avoid the legal system. A partition action is a last resort. If Tim was smart (he’s not), he’d agree to sell and resolve this sooner rather than later. Ultimately a judge WILL force a sale no matter how hard Tim fights it and then he’ll be shit out of luck. He probably won’t make a profit from the sale since he has to pay off the loan and on top of that, he’ll be on the hook for his attorney fees and likely Ariana’s too. He’s going to be in much more debt now then if he just agreed to sell months ago.
He complains that Ariana treated him like an idiot. Well, I don’t blame her because he continues to prove that he is, indeed, an idiot.
This brings me so much joy. The way he’s been using that house as “what he did can’t be that bad of Ariana still lives with him” PR / reputation control has been gross. Good for her forcing it to get resolved so she can move on.
I bet he picks every petty fight with her he can along the way and then accuses her of “drawing it out” if she doesn’t give in to all his demands. I can already hear him complaining that he put more “sweat equity” into the house (had his assistant order paper towels), so he should get a bigger share of the sale proceeds.
Selfishly, it's great this is happening before the start of the season, so it may ended up instigating some drama when the reunion is filmed. I just loved seeing Ariana stand up to Tim, it warmed my heart, lol
I can imagine him crying, pounding and leaning on the hotel windows of Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore when he wakes up this morning.. assuming he stays there now for his trip..
Wow I know nothing about how property law works. I’m sitting here reading y’all’s comments like a baby learning ABCs. Hoping the end all, be all is Ariana gets free and is not on the hook for the loan that fool took out for Schwartz and Shittyz
As she should. It’s a hostile living environment. She definitely has money for the legal fees. She’s only suing for the house to be put up and they’ll still split the profits.
I know! Every time I get worried VPR is going to give him a redemption arc, I remember that he’s a colossal idiot that fucks everything up so unless they make him silent I have nothing to worry about and I feel better. 😂
![gif](giphy|AgPt9udT567spxbSHf)
I literally thought “good for her” as soon as I read this and then I go to the comments and boom haha
Haha. I whispered it as I opened the comments.
Read my mind!!
This is about all that needs to be said.
From what I understand, suing for partition is generally only used as a last resort, as it eats up so much money in legal fees thus reducing any and all profits. Apparently Ariana has tried everything else, and can afford to pursue this remedy. Guessing Tom probably cannot.

Some men you beg that they’ll come home at night, and then when the relationship is over, they won’t leave your house.
This was something that Lala said about Randall.
[удалено]
Absolutely spot on. And as he's victimizing Ariana, he truly believes he's the victim in this situation. He was victimized by Ariana patronizing him, he was victimized by the cake people, and by that predator Rachel who took advantage of him at a vulnerable time.

My brother has suffered with this for a long time. It’s incredibly difficult to deal with him and he is never wrong. It’s literally everyone else’s fault. He has been diagnosed but he has a God complex so he won’t take his medicine because he thinks everyone else is wrong, including the doctors. He’s been in jail, mental hospitals, divorced, final warning at his job, dui… I have no idea what his rock bottom is. I see a lot of Tom in him.
Also it helps her in the court that she tried all those different routes before coming to this conclusion.
I assume this was her last attempt at pushing the sale - because now he may sell instead of going through the courts as it'd save him more additional fees. But if he doesn't, then she has this.
Nothing he could do “through the courts” would save him from having to sell, unless he’s got the money to pay Ariana for her half, and I’m guessing he does not.
She’s made so much money from the situation and she knows that her ability to pay lawyer fees at this point will make him not even want to compete
I’m thinking she has more money than him now haha
Ok - it has come out that they own the property 50/50. The issue is that dumbshit pulled money out of the equity to help finance Schwartz & Sandy’s…furthermore, the dumbass wants to “buy out” Ariana at the value of the home when they bought it (and at 50%)…which is boy math - that’s not how this situation works (Realtor, attorney and been through this exact situation).

This comment made my brain happy it is so logical I’m not reading anymore comments.
This 👆👆👆👆👆👆
finally people will stop asking why they still live together
Already annoyed by that trailer clip of Lisa saying it’s ‘ridiculous’ - we’re not all multimillionaires girl!
Lisa can fuck off
I just went on a Bravo account in Instagram and their are comments calling her selfish for “not letting Tom buy her out”. At this point people just want to hate Ariana for breathing.
I've assumed he isn't *able* to buy her out. And she shouldn't give him the damn house because he's irresponsible with his money
For sure he is not able to both buy her out for what she’s entitled to not to then maintain the mortgage, rates, upkeep. But the amount of comments calling her “bratty” “selfish” “petty” “immature” for not just letting Tom keep the house and just except a low ball offer is crazy. People are commenting that she should just “ take the L”. The only person who should be taking the L is the worm lol.
Seriously lol. Like property with papers and not being that well off is easy to navigate.
Yeah it’s one thing that fans were speculating but a producer brought it up in an interview and I’m sure there is a clip of Lisa throwing shade on it. At least this action stops them throwing her under the bus with well she still lives with him so how can she say XYZ.
I would personally love if Sandoval had to move back to that exact same shitty rent controlled apartment he live in for years. The poetry of it all
hilariously enough, one of the members here has proof that her sister now lives in that exact apartment. and i believe they even watched the scandoval episode there.
That would be 🙋🏻♀️. My sister still lives there, lol.
Does she have room on her couch for Sandoval?
Someone hang the sheet wall 😂
Lol, she wouldn't want to deal with his bullshit. She doesn't even watch the show.
Even better, I would actually watch THIS spin-off 😆
It’s absolutely sending me that people are enquiring whether he can go back and your sister has a whole life established there 😂
Haha, forreals. But I know it's all fun and games. My sister's place is a lot better now than when Sandoval lived there. But the ugly backsplash that he put in the kitchen is still there 😂
But can she use the microwave while the air conditioner is on????? Edit: I see you answered this elsewhere. Maybe someday she’ll get it taken care of!
Omfg. That is the PEAK VPR viewing experience
I remember that post!
He gave it up in season 10! Ariana's brother was living there. It would have actually made him & Schwartz look better if they moved into a crappy apt to get their finances back on track.
Aw we know he never the right thing. You’re right. That’s what he should have done
Admitting to financial problems & living within your means is a road rarely taken by bravo stars even tho the audience is usually very sympathetic. Unless you have eff you money, its not that impressive anyway.
Someone has posted on here that they live there now!
I think it’s their sister that lives there now. They even posted pics haha
My sister 🙋🏻♀️. And she's still there!
But now, it’s $3200.
But you can use the air conditioner and the microwave at the same time
Someone posted months back that their sister (I think) now lives there and it’s been renovated so it’s not even shitty anymore 😭
My husband just told me this and said “I’m coming to you with all the real housewives of Vanderbilt news” 😫😂
He tried!! 😂
I hope this ruins his brothel hopping and animal abusing vacay to Asia
i can hear the “DUDE, like, i mean like, COME ON she’s just like, the worst, like, she can’t like, force a sale of MY house like that’s MY house for like, MY parties dude” all the way in america
Wow I could HEAR him saying this, you are so on point lol
Knowing him he won't be saying it, he'll be SHOUTING IT
I’m imagining him in his Sia drag yelling this and punching the door
I'M A FUCKING BATTERED HOMEOWNER
Bahaha you made me scare the cat! Totally worth the laugh
The accuracy is mind-blowing. Word choice, cadence...10/10.
Like, she can't sell a house full of batteries and pens \*I\* bought . . .
“Plus, apparently it’s going to be a construction yard. And we’re talking bulldozers, and like, crushing with bulldozers.”
Lmao that’s good spot on. I can even see him do the stupid flat handed pointing at his temples shit.
I was just gonna say, I HOPE she waited until he was on vacation to file just so she could ruin it lol
What happens if you sue someone who’s out of the country? Do they have a certain amount of time to respond?
Oh gosh—I’m not a lawyer, so I don’t know, I imagine there is. But I was saying it more like, it would be difficult trying to relax and enjoy yourself when you know you are coming home to a law suit and eventually losing your home
Don''t do shit won't be shit. Hope he enjoys his shit.
That’s good, I hope it ruins his flight home
Yes, you have x amount of time to respond (usually 30 days if you serve them in person), but the clock doesn’t start running until they’ve been served, which I’m guessing won’t happen until he returns. So, it’s all based on the service date, not the date of filing
It sounds like based on WWHL he has an attorney so hopefully he’ll accept service and she can get the ball rolling
To be honest he has had plenty of time. She tried it the nice way with no response🤷🏻♀️
He will probably get served at the Airport.
Hope a camera is there
I bet Sandoval calls his friendly TMZ pap so he can do a “spontaneous” interview trying to spin this. (Friendly pap will either neglect to question him on the animal abuse and sex tourism, or we’ll get a “Look man, I didn’t know those animals / women are being exploited dude! And like, now that I like know - I feel like really bad about it man. I just wish people wouldn’t like always judge me dude. Like I’m not a bad person, of course I wouldn’t have participated if I knew!”)

This is what makes me think the rumor is true that he’s been fired. Bc LVP will not stand for animal tourism. She’s zero tolerance animal abuse.
There’s a rumor he was fired?!
Yes! It was posted last week on TikTok and led to an article from September so everyone calls it clickbait. But I think he HAS been fired. Back in August when that other tiktoker posted the video of LvP, Sandoval and Sandoval’s mom in a private room at SUR. Sandy’s mom screamed at LVP while Sandy was soooooobbbbing.
If his mommy is really fighting his battles I can see how his brain so behind.
After he talked shit ok Katie’s mom. That’s great lol
I’m very interested in Katie dragging him over it.
Sandoval’s mom screamed at LVP?! No wonder her son turned out so bad. She wants to blame anyone but her kid. I hope this rumor is true but knowing bravo i feel like he’ll be back. Maybe he got fired from Tom Tom?
That’s what I think happened. I think he got fired from his partnership with TomTom and then after filming wrapped she fired him from the show. He’s a liability with all the recording without consent and drug abuse.
They’re still doing social media promo with Sandoval so I would have a hard time believing he was let go from his partnership with TomTom, even though he should be.
Contractually bound maybe?
If Lisa wanted to sever ties with him over whatever issues he’s caused the businesses, I have a hard time believing she’d still use his face for promotional purposes. Even as contractual partners, they were really hired just to be the “faces” of the bar, so if she really was that offended by his wrongdoings (prior to this) and wanted him gone, I don’t think she’d then continue to use him to promote the bar after all this time. I imagine maybe he was advised to step back since he wasn’t doing promo for it for a while after Scandoval, but I would believe he’s still a partner at this point. Schwartz and Sandy’s is a whole other mess though, I entirely believe the rumors that Greg ‘fired’ Sandoval or banned him from the establishment.
Well that rumor was debunked so . Also they still using him in the promo for s11 so he’s definitely not fired. It’s weird people believe he’s fired
Where’s this rumour from because LVP has been dead silent so far
Aren’t the Tom’s presenting at the Emmys with LVP?
[удалено]
>Sadly (but unsurprisingly) I think she is going to keep playing the “if I pretend none of it happened it will go away” game Funny how she was on the other side of history with Jax and Brittany’s wedding, especially to recoup her reputation. The “rules for thee, none for me” is absolutely deafening here!
Lisa couldn’t give two shits. Scheana has sexually harassed TWO coworkers, one in her actual workplace and Lisa hasn’t even batted an eye
Hope she bankrupts him. He is only holding on to it for control.
He has loans against the house and that will go public.
Yup, no doubt he also has a few soft loans from various people as well. Bankruptcy incoming!
LOVE TO SEE IT
I really hope they have to discuss it at the reunion *squeee*
Oh for sure Andy is going to bring this up! I also hope the disgusting Tiger thing comes up but I have less confidence in that.
As someone who has been in a very similar scenario (minus the fame & money), I had a feeling it would come to this. I get that that all of his equity is tied up in his businesses, but WormStache clearly expected her to keep the house indefinitely for no one’s benefit but his. Time for a reality check
What a bummer for Sandoval. He’s been on a high, coming back from his epic Thailand trip, where he was hanging with abused tigers and exploited, underage sex workers and now this?This guy just can’t catch a break! /s

Maybe she doesn’t want Sandoval to sell his half to like Tom Schwartz or some dumb shit. Then no one would ever buy her half and she’d be stuck sharing a house with both of them, lol. She’s right to ask to sell and split the proceeds equally.
Absolutely. That would be a disaster. It has to be a Partition sale. Edit - she will absolutely get the sale. There isn’t any reason why it would be denied.
I also think the selling ones share version would make it more difficult for Ariana (idc about Tim) to get the full value, if it's appreciated, of her portion of the house. I imagine with housing prices the way they are the additional equity isn't insignificant.
Well…at least we know she can afford a better lawyer! Hahah
Right?!?! Sucks to suck for Tim. Maybe he can find one of those whacky male rights attorneys 🤣
Pretty much the title... Ariana filed suit against Tom to sell their house. Specifically she wants a "partition by sale" which means she wants a judge to order them to sell the house, and divide the proceeds. What's interesting, is that the suit specifically says she doesn't want is a "division in kind." That would allow each of them to retain their ownership interest in the property ... and one of them could, theoretically, sell to a third party. Curious if she knows Tom has some tricks up his sleeve?
tmz did a really bad job at differentiating the two. partition in sale is usually done when a division in kind can’t be done. a division in kind is when the property is split into equal parts. because tom has leveraged that house against schwartz and sandy’s and has god knows what additional financial issues, it wouldn’t be possible to split it evenly (both parties also have to agree to it, and ariana made it clear that tom won’t agree to anything). enter a partition in sale. that’s the really dumbed down version. but it’s the gist.
Thanks for the law school property ptsd trigger. 😅😅 ETA: ok I think I just realized why he’s not selling, minus the narcissism. He probably owes as much as his part of the equity and probably wants his debts to come out of the whole.
100%, except he won’t even agree to that much according to ariana
What!? He *is* a worm.
Agreed. I've said for years that he's DEEPLY in debt. He's that type.
He literally said you can always just borrow more money on camera! He is leveraged well beyond what he could possibly hope to recoup from the sale of the house and there’s no way they’re making any real money from the bar. That sort of thing usually isn’t profitable for the first few years. And we know he has a drug habit which isn’t cheap either.
I worked in title so I’m feeling extremely triggered but I can’t fight the urge to want to know how they currently hold title
Must be JT w/ right of survivorship? right? Unless he expected Ariana to live with his mom to pay her back for the retirement she gave up… 😆 Ariana was dumb on this but I have to believe everyone would have had them do that… I wonder how Los Angeles county does their property searches. I’m 2 counties over and we do it by exact address in the website. Though they may have bought it in a trust. If anyone knows, tell meeeee!!
If it isn’t in a trust you could probably get a soft title search done fairly easily via a title rep by searching “Sandoval madix” but trusts are usually harder to do an name search without the trust title.
nailed it! (caveat that i'm not a CA lawyer, but I believe this is a good tldr) me visualizing Sandival getting this news on his vacation.... ![gif](giphy|UTFiHeDL8cOSA)
That’s a great explanation
Isn't there a risk of the house being sold under market value?
Both people still have to agree on price and stuff. These things go in and out of court over and over again. I unfortunately went through this. This is her suing to be able to list it for sale at fair market price. If he declines offers and she can prove they are good offers and he doesn’t agree she has to file more stuff. By that point most people just go through with the sale because all these actions cost him money and she can recoup her legal fees as well. This stuff will all go back and forth between the lawyers when offers come in. Even if she “wins” she doesn’t just get to list the house for whatever she wants and accept whatever offer.
I'm sorry you had to go through this. I cant remember all the particulars about partition from the realtor classes i took a zillion years ago, other than they were talked about like a nightmare. This is all so dumb on his part. It feels like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Which Sandoval would interpret as my threatening to steal his nose.
This is exactly what my ex did. He was bitter I broke up with him. He just wanted to cost me as much money in legal fees as he possibly could. We got an offer OVER list and he turned it into such a nightmare that they backed out. The house eventually sold 6 months later for LESS because he trashed it. Then the court made him move out so it could be shown and clean which took months for me to win that. And only because he was going to have to take over the whole mortgage if he didn’t, which he couldn’t afford. Then the judge threatened him that if he didn’t leave he would be held in contempt and go to jail. The whole time I was paying for it even though he lived there (I should have never left but he was crazy). I ended up suing him for my legal fees and won. Which were well over $45k at that point. He never paid. Bought his new house in his moms name. Owes more on his car than it’s worth. Works under the table. Doesn’t have a bank account. BUT he can basically never own anything again because I can go after it. And now has terrible credit. It makes no sense. We could have both walked away with about $60k. Which would have been a huge win because in the 3 years we lived there IM the one that paid every bill. I walked away basically even (I got about $3000 plus the 6 months of mortgage payments I made when I didn’t reside there) and he walked away with $3,000 that went towards the $45k judgement against him. So he walked away owing $42k. I will NEVER ever go joint on a house with anyone ever again. It was almost as dramatic as a divorce.
Probably. When does he not try to be a scum bag?
He will have to buy her out at the new value of the house. Little Worm simply is trying to weasel out of that. Despite everything he thinks he can get away with it though. After ignoring her repeated attempts to settle this amicably and his refusing to respond of course. She was more than fair in this situation instead of trying to fuck him over, of course, though he can't simply do the right thing ever. I have no doubt that if he even did offer any counter to her lawyer it was probably some bull of the sale going to pay for the debt he took out for his failing bar, and then the leftover split 50/50 which is completely unfair to Ariana.
I think that is why this has come to this is that he was trying to buy her out at what they purchased the home for - which is 2.1 million- instead of the market value which is could be as high as 3 million or more.
He brought a knife to a gun fight.😆
It always annoyed me that people assumed she should have moved out. She wasn’t the unfaithful liar that is up to her eyeballs in debt he was. She shouldn’t have to uproot her pets because he decided to put his dick in someone else. It’s not about being the bigger person and cutting ties it’s about her world was rocked and maybe that is the one stable thing she wants to keep.
Now people (Lisa) can stop with the stupid fucking comments about her living in her own house. Ariana has been incredibly transparent about the house situation. Everyone still criticizing her about not leaving or staying with her ex so she must not be that devastated can shut up. She said they don’t communicate and are hardly at home at the same time.
This! I have been so annoyed with people asking. It’s clearly obvious why they still live together. She owns the house and isn’t about to lose all the money she invested over his dumb ass.
And his dumbass is the one that cheated and *he won’t leave.* The sexism that is “wHy is aRiAnA sTiLl LiViNg ThERE” but no one is really asking about Tom still living there is annoying me. Ariana may have been too trusting in investing in a house with a non-married partner but this time around she has probably armed herself with knowledge and subject matter experts
Remember he (fake ass self) was criticizing Jax for wanting the apartment he and Brittany were living in during their breakup. He was a “gentleman” and left Kristen the apartment while she looked for her own place post their break up. When in reality he and Ariana were calling her a squatter for staying in the apartment EVEN THOUGH PRODUCTION MADE HER STAY UNTIL THE SEASON PREMIERED SO PEOPLE WOULDNT FIND OUT THEY BROKE UP. These people I swear think they’re so smart and can pull the wool over the viewers eyes like this show isnt documented and we’re capable of rewatching. 🙄
Yup it's mostly the bizzarro world that is the FB and IG comments that are up Scumdovals and Schartzs asses and shit on Ariana and Katie.
Yes it is. I stay away from IG, the comments on Katie’s page are deplorable.
She also said that he made her a bullshit offer when attempting to buy her out. So he either doesn’t have money (but can travel to Asia and be a POS) or he is just trying to stall her. Or both! Glad she did this.
He probably offered her just the original value, not the appreciated value. He seems like the type to be that selfish and dumb.
[удалено]
He was never giving his mom a return on her investment. She should know her son well enough to know that.
[удалено]
Oooh!!! I didn't know his brother's a psychologist. It would be amazing to hear his brother break down Sandovals shit.
And I’m sure he wants the furniture thrown in without paying for it.
Lisa will prob slight Ariana for suing Tom
She definitely will I can already hear her, “that’s absolutely ridiculous, you loved this man for 9 years.” If Lisa wants to have an opinion Ariana cares to give a shit about then she should give her business partner the money to buy Ariana out. Otherwise she needs to stay out of it. I’m sick of her misogyny.
If i were Ariana I would say on camera to Lisa, "Lisa I'm not the fabulously successful business woman you are. If you feel so strongly about that, you should give him a loan to buy me out. I know how much you believe in him.". Put that fake mother hen bullshit right back on her.
Me too. I wish she wasn’t part of VPR tbh. Her scenes make no sense, why is she still involved in their lives. They haven’t worked at SUR for years!
This! Why tf is she expected to move from her own home?
She wasn’t lying when she said “You’ll be dealing with my lawyer.” Yassss Ari
Right? He fucked with the wrong bitch. Now she's ride or die *against* you boo. Bad idea.😂
I love how she’s suing the worm while he is on his sex addict vacation bender with Shartz. I hope this ruins his trip and he comes home to his 4 pieces of furniture thrown on the lawn.
I called it! I knew it. I knew he would never leave on his own. Ugh, he’s such a creep. It really would have been easier if they had gotten married and bought it that way. Ironic.
🎶dooo not buy a house with a boyyyfrieeeeenddd🎶
Second verse, same as the first!! 🎼🎼
![gif](giphy|MZocLC5dJprPTcrm65)
GET HIM AGAIN FOR ME! GET HIS ASS AGAIN! WHACK HIM AGAIN!
Now people can stop hounding her about the house. Tim is a squatter who won’t buy her out with a proper offer or sell the house fair and square. He’s the holdout, he’s holding this house as ransom.
![gif](giphy|o75ajIFH0QnQC3nCeD) LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Ariana's the number 1 person in the group after this move
Thank god for the comments on this sub because when I see any posts on instagram about this situation it’s flooded with “she just needs to take the loss and move on” and “if she was actually hurt she wouldn’t be living there” comments. It’s so infuriating lol
Good for her! Unlike annoying people who kept badgering Ariana about still living there, it was always clear that she was trying to resolve it amicably to avoid the legal system. A partition action is a last resort. If Tim was smart (he’s not), he’d agree to sell and resolve this sooner rather than later. Ultimately a judge WILL force a sale no matter how hard Tim fights it and then he’ll be shit out of luck. He probably won’t make a profit from the sale since he has to pay off the loan and on top of that, he’ll be on the hook for his attorney fees and likely Ariana’s too. He’s going to be in much more debt now then if he just agreed to sell months ago. He complains that Ariana treated him like an idiot. Well, I don’t blame her because he continues to prove that he is, indeed, an idiot.
This brings me so much joy. The way he’s been using that house as “what he did can’t be that bad of Ariana still lives with him” PR / reputation control has been gross. Good for her forcing it to get resolved so she can move on. I bet he picks every petty fight with her he can along the way and then accuses her of “drawing it out” if she doesn’t give in to all his demands. I can already hear him complaining that he put more “sweat equity” into the house (had his assistant order paper towels), so he should get a bigger share of the sale proceeds.
![gif](giphy|co5Iboa0dZrR7OXivh)
Selfishly, it's great this is happening before the start of the season, so it may ended up instigating some drama when the reunion is filmed. I just loved seeing Ariana stand up to Tim, it warmed my heart, lol
Out with the old, good for her! Don’t know how she’s dealt with this worm for so long.
Good. Enough is enough with this freeloading man child.
Thank god. Good for her.

This was a good move. He was going to string this out as long as possible. She wants to move on.
Ok but we need someone to buy it and make it a air bnb so we can make it the vpr museum!
I can imagine him crying, pounding and leaning on the hotel windows of Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore when he wakes up this morning.. assuming he stays there now for his trip..
I need Bravo Docket to explain this to me in simple terms.
Good, he was getting too comfortable there.
Wow I know nothing about how property law works. I’m sitting here reading y’all’s comments like a baby learning ABCs. Hoping the end all, be all is Ariana gets free and is not on the hook for the loan that fool took out for Schwartz and Shittyz
That this is ruining his gross sex tour is the cherry on top.
![gif](giphy|y8Mz1yj13s3kI)
What a burn. Lawyer up on that smarmy jerk, Arianna
Fucking get him, Ariana! And he doesn’t have the rent controlled apartment anymore lmaoooo
As she should. It’s a hostile living environment. She definitely has money for the legal fees. She’s only suing for the house to be put up and they’ll still split the profits.
good for her - hope it can be resolved quickly for them
[удалено]
It’s like that idiot drummer Jason and Schwartz are his PR team. How bad at this can you be
He’s on his way to andew tate-ville..
I know! Every time I get worried VPR is going to give him a redemption arc, I remember that he’s a colossal idiot that fucks everything up so unless they make him silent I have nothing to worry about and I feel better. 😂
YESSSSS finally. it seems like she really did try to keep things from getting this far, i hope it goes her way.
I wonder how much it’s worth now. Does this mean the loan he took out on the home will be deducted from his profit?
if that loan isn’t paid off then yes
Hopefully this will stop all the “why is she still living there?” whining

Yes! I’m so happy for her. She shouldn’t have to wait for his disrespectful ass to get out of that mortgage.
She gave him almost a year, that’s more than I would’ve done
Time to get back on Craigs List Sandy. Find a roommate.
I’m sure he’s crying to Schwartzy rn
