Inside Richard Saghian’s $300 Million-Plus Property Portfolio

Richard Saghian knows how to move merchandise. Since founding Fashion Nova in 2006, he’s turned a single Los Angeles retail business into a fast-fashion empire. His latest obsession, however, has nothing to do with what’s trending on Instagram. The son of an Iranian immigrant who owned a women’s clothing store in Los Angeles’s Fashion District, Saghian grew up around the apparel industry before opening his first Fashion Nova outpost in a San Fernando Valley mall. The real turning point came in 2013, when he took the brand online. Fashion Nova already had a sizable Instagram following, thanks to customers and influencers tagging its clothes in their posts, and Saghian turned that online buzz into a marketing machine, churning out hundreds of new styles each week and enlisting celebrities including Cardi B, Kylie Jenner , and Khloé Kardashian to help spread the word. The strategy worked. Fashion Nova grew into a multibillion-dollar business, making Saghian, whose fortune Forbes estimates at $2.1 billion, one of retail’s biggest success stories. Away from the fast-fashion frenzy, the billionaire has developed an appetite for trophy real estate, spending more than $300 million on homes in some of the country’s most coveted markets.

One Unfixed Apartment Could Freeze Rent Hikes Across a West Hollywood Building

In a city where about four in five households rent, protecting renters has always been a priority at City Hall. Still, tenants will say the City falls short when they’re facing displacement, waiting months for repairs or losing services they counted on when they moved in, like parking or a working elevator. On Monday, the Council approved new guidelines for how much tenants can get off their rent when those services are lost. It also moved ahead with a proposal that could take effect next July and stop a landlord from raising rents across an entire building when a serious health or safety problem goes unresolved. Getting a rent reduction and getting the work done are two different things. Take North Harper Avenue.

California Landlords Are Losing 6 Figures to Squatters — and Their Insurance Won’t Pay for It

Rob Casares bought a four-unit complex in South Los Angeles about 15 years ago. It was an investment and a way to provide housing in his community. Over the past three years, squatters broke into three of his units at different times. By the time the last one was removed — a process that took nearly a year — Casares told Spectrum News that the combined damage and lost rent had cost him six figures.
