: MediaTakeOut.com has learned that actor Omar Epps and his wife Keisha Spivey recently moved into a new home in the Sherman Oaks area of Los Angeles.
The grand Mediterranean-style house was built in 2003. Features in the house, include five and a half baths, a three-car garage with built-in cabinetry, a wrought iron staircase, 9-foot ceilings, 8-foot interior doors, Brazilian cherry floors, tumbled travertine finishes and an imported French limestone fireplace. The home also has an office, media room, remote-controlled pool, spa, wet bar in the family room, and a kitchen with granite counters and stainless steel appliances.
Omar and Keisha paid $2.2 million for the home earlier this year.
Wait a minute...aren't they married? Well in that case THEY bought a house together. Remember whatever assets are made in marriage is BOTH of theirs. She is not some girlfriend he is seeing every once in a while. So when he is on set playing doctor or in whatever movie and she is at home raising the babies THEY are taking care of the children (not just her).

THEY ARE NOW WHERE NEAR WILL AND JADA!! PLEASE DON'T GO THERE. WILL IS PAID IN FULL AND HAS BEEN AROUND FOR AGES. HE'S LEGENDARY. OMAR HOLDS IT DOWN FOR HIMSELF AND MADE A "NICE LITTLE" NAME FOR HIMSELF BUT NO WHERE NEAR WILL SMITH.
MUCH RESPECT TO OMAR AND HIS "HAS BEEN" WIFE - BUT SHE CAN'T PULL ANY WEIGHT. SHE HASN'T HAD AN ALBUM OUT IN YEARS. LOVE YOU KEISHA BUT "CAN'T YOU SEE" YOU AINT HAD A PAY DAY IN A MINUTE BOO BOO!
C YA!!
First of all, this is not a mansion by any standard. Its a very nice HOUSE. How I know, `cause WE bought a house the size of this one with almost the same amenities and its a HOUSE(I can't afford a mansion). Plus, this same exact house in Atlanta would be only about $300K.
Secondly, Fucc what you heard, That's their house. I don't care who wrote the check. I'm suprise that all you women are saying "HIS HOUSE". If he left her, you'd be crying "Get the money and the house girl, that yo' shyt". Real funny....
PEOPLE WHO CARES WHO PAID FOR THE HOUSE??? SEE HOW WE BLACK FOLKS DO THAT IS WHY WE NEVER HAVE ANYTHING BECAUSE WE ARE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT WHAT's YOURS MINE ADN NEVER OURS. FOR thos of you that don't know how the industry works his wife still get money she just doesn't get as much as him. COngrats to them both!!!!!
And whether he purchased it or not....if they are LEGALLY married and were married at the time of the purchase....guess what....regardless to whose money was used, it's now COMMUNITY property. That b!tch gotta be split in half if they split, and they still gon' need her name on the dotted line too if they choose to sell it. I'm in real estate/escrow....trust, i know this.

Who cares who paid for this home they are a married couple and anything brought as a couple is community property , they are happy and I wish them all the best, haters are always around , my moma used to say misery loves company. Some people on here must still be in HIGHSCHOOL since that is the mentality thay have
Omar paid for that crib? Y'all are some cynical, negative people. No, THEY paid for that crib. The last time I checked, they were married so his money is her money and her money is his money. You don't know what Kesha's finances are like. Don't be mad because your husband didn't buy you a 2.2 million dollar house.
ok people... we all know that THEY bought the house, because THEY are married... but what most people are saying, including myself, is that the money used to buy that house came from Omar's work... simple and plain. who care's about community property and all that other ish... we just trying to say that keisha really hasn't contributed financially as much as Omar has. Thats fact. They are married, that is also fact. So... everything is THERES, until they get divorced and that pre-nup he had her sign works out and he get his sh!t back... *God knows I'm not wishing divorce on anyone, especially this beautiful black couple, but a lot of the time that is the way it ends up in hollywood marriages*
good luck to the family and I really do hope they stay together for the long haul!
oh and to the brother that made the comment about that house being 300K in georgia... well duh. comparing property values in georgia and california is like comparing summer vacation spots in hawaii and alaska
I'm really happy for the both of them. And I agree with Candy82...Omar is the breadwinner of the household. Keisha may have some scrill but from Omar movies and television series he is clearly the moneymaker. But not to say Keisha may have her own business too....I don't think she's sittin' on her butt 24/7...she's a pretty girl though.
The house is nice and all but it don't look like it's worth $2.2 mill. but then again they are in LA so the property value out there is crazy!! I have to agree with most when they say, Omar bought it, not Keisha! And so what if they are married everyone knows that Bad Boy money beeeeeeen ran out and Puffy aint giving them no royalty checks! lol I heard Omar was arrogant, but I have never sensed that from him, he owns a condo next to mine in Jersey, I haven't seen him in over three years so I'm guessing he sold it. But I'm mad as hell...b/c I could of been Mrs. Epps had I stopped thinking it was all about me playing hard to get and shiit. lol Oh well, Keisha got the "juice" now. lol
I think when they 2.2 mil that includes all of the amenities, appliances and any extra work they put into the house ppl. Besides omar Epps is doing very well for him self on the show HOUSE. his mom also has a beautiful home she used to be the pricipal at my elementry school in brooklyn he use to mke frequent visits there wow how does time fly.
Y yall hatin? Leave them alone. Just because they makin hollywood money, dont mean they gotta spend like they hollywood. They have 3 kids and i bet their future is very well invested in. No Keisha ain't made no albums in a minute but so the fucc what. I bet she still seeing royalty checks from the albums she did release it might be small cause we all know how money hungry Diddy is but she far from broke. Her HUSBAND yes ladies HUSBAND is still makin that money and even if they dont last she still gonna see enuff money where she dont have to make another album to live comfortable. They look happy together and haters never want to see that. Keep living Fucc them haters.
NO OMAR DID NOT BUY THE HOUSE ON HIS OWN! HE and his WIFE Keisha BOUGHT IT plain and simple. This is not Oprah and Stedman. For all any of you knw the girl sold whatever property she had and helped in buying the house, but that still doesn't matter becauses what is HIS is HERS and vice versa. Got it?
Hello people, they are a married couple and when you become a married couple you also become french, so everything is WE, WE, WE!!!! So stop it with pointing out nice house but he bought it, that does sound a little catty to me, and I am quite sure the comment did not come from the married folks because we know what's up!!!! I am quite sure she is home holding down THEIR children and household so it all works out....KAY???
Omar worked to get that home and Kesha didn't. I'm sure while he was on the set making his show, she was at home cleaning, taking care of kids and keeping her husband happy so they both worked for that house. Look at y'all ignorant house negroes perpetuating negative stereotypes about black people. I bet none of you said that when Kobe married his wife or Tiger Woods. None of you said, "Oh, Kobe bought that house. His wife doesn't have any money" And Total had three successful albums, maybe she decided to stay at home and take care of her children.
Isn't it crazy how MTO knows just how to get you all riled up!!! They act like they are trying to post a real nice blog about someone and then all they had to innocently say was, Omar and Keysha bought the new home they live in and all the sistas went bonkers!!! Why does that bother you guys so much?? When you are married it is not he bought it or she bought it is they bought it. Who cares if he put 99% of the money and she only put 1 % of the money at the end of the day it belongs to both. When you gals get married you will understand.....
the same people on here saying he brought that house cause he is the bread winner are the same ones that if ya'll were married o him would be claiming it as ya'll house knowing ya'll aint worked a day in ya'll life.. none of ya'll know her personally so how do ya'll know what she has or doesnt have.
