Nene Leakes has finally sold her house in Duluth, y’all. Property is on fire in the ATL. I get a dozen letters in my mailbox a week from investors wanting to buy the ghetto shack. I wish I was ready to sell. It’s going to take me forever to dig out of this Covid mess. Anyway, as usual I digress. Nene’s house has been sitting on the market forever during one of the hottest seller’s market I’ve ever seen. She was trying to double her money on her purchase of the home in 2015 when she paid $2.1 million. That was not going to happen even in this hot market. She finally sold it last week for $2.6 million. That’s a nice half a million in profit. And she needs it. There are no more TRUMP CHECKS! Or RHOA checks. Or as far as I know, any checks. For some reason no one wants to work with her. Hmmmm…
What’s Next For Nene Leakes
Nene Leakes has already purchased an apartment in downtown Atlanta. That’s actually a wise move. However, her newest venture, “The Linnethia Lounge” is all the way out in Duluth. I feel like Nene is very sometimey about running the place. Sure she is there when Peter, or Apollo are in town. But there are a ton of complaints about the place on Yelp. Some of the complaints are about Nene being rude. Um, Hello? Or the insane parking situation where they are not allowed in if they don’t pay outrages prices to park in a public shopping center parking lot. It’s not even valet. Other complaints are about the over priced watered down drinks, the poor service, the bad food, etc.
Just went to pull you the Yelp Link And read this new “feature.”
However, that wasn’t the worst part of the night. Around 9-9:30p I noticed that this guy employee started removing empty bar stools from the bar & taking them to the back. So I asked why he was doing that, he stated that after 9p they charge $100 per stool if you want to sit at the bar!!! WTH??? As if your money to purchase their nasty food, over priced drinks and hookah isn’t enough??? He stood there staring at our party of 5 at the bar, literally waiting for us to leave so they could sweep up those chairs as well. My girl had to have words with him when I got up to leave for the restroom. Yes, he wanted to remove my chair when I went to the restroom!! How rude and ridiculous is that. At that point, we had enough of their shenanigans and left. I made it very clear to ALL my local and out of town friends and family not to bother going here. If you do decide to go, jus know you been warned.
I know she has been trying to palm The Linnethia off on one of her sons. That doesn’t seem to be going well. People come there to see her. No one is going out to the sticks to pay twice what the charges are in midtown to pay a hundred dollars (after the parking and the cover charge) to sit on a barstool and drink watered down drinks out of plastic cups. I predict this business will soon go the way of her Swagg stores which were all closed down without even telling the employees.
I’m shocked that Nene Leakes hasn’t move to Miami yet. Maybe it’s because she can’t afford Miami?
Was she in St Marlo? I swear I saw Porsha in there last year. Just wondering.
She previously rented a house in St. Marlo. This house is in Sugarloaf.
I doubt NeNe made half a million on the sale of the house. She had a high ratio mortgage with a high interest rate. Remember she bought that house before covid when interest rates were higher. Then there is the real estate agent commission.
I think the only money NeNe has come into is probably from Greg’s Life insurance policy.
And you are correct NO ONE wants to work with her. The suits at CBS didn’t even bother to consider NeNe and chose Cynthia for Celebrity Big Brother.
Trust when I say Tamar was turning over every rock with production trying to advocate for Nene. It was a hard NO.
Tamar need to hush they had a bar that closed because they started charging for ice and juice and other small surcharges too! I was like why we gotta be so tacky when it comes to a service? That will kill any patron to come back to your establishment.
IV, Nene also claims she did some improvements, so IF that is true, she didn’t turn a profit at all.
I ask seriously why people would want to go to that club
Are there people who seriously want to pay an exorbitant amount of money for what appears to be a terrible experience – at best it’s a mediocre club – because it is owned by a D-list “celebrity”.
I ask this as a serious question because you couldn’t pay me enough – LITERALLY – to go to a club in Duluth in some low rent shopping mall where an uncomfortable stool would cost me $100. Could I bring a portable folding chair?
You would probably have to pay a cover charge for the chair. If I HAD to go for some reason, I’d want to bring a glass.
Yeah I visited this past week (1/28/22) only because the new Harolds Chicken bar was filled to capacity. We went to have a drink and appetizer and received the bill. Why she charged us a surcharge on top of the bill? I asked why is there a surcharge the young lady replied to pay the back at and fish washer. How tacky. I provided an additional $15 tip just because I enjoy great service but we would never come back. I have the receipt to prove it. I read the reviews and no one was hardly in there. It’s a wrap for sure for Ms Nasty Attitude. I feel sorry for her at times but she deserves anything that comes her way. As she stated in the past. “You can’t win being dirty”.
Dish washer and bar back!! I was trying to say!! The surcharge was on top of my bill that I received!
I like fish washer better, and I would’ve paid extra to watch LOL!!!!
LOL!!! Me too!
One of Nene’s famous lines was, “You never win when you play dirty.” These ‘L’ s she keeps racking up are karma for being such ” so nasty, so rude”. Stay humble, or get humbled. Bloop.
Nene made money off the sale of her home, so that is a good thing. I am sure that is great relief. Most homes don’t double in value, but I guess she had to try it!! I didn’t realize the market was hot now!! I am surprised that Nene is staying in Atlanta, but it is around where she grew up. I thought she would move to another city.
Isn’t she doing the Fashion show with Bevy Smith or Melissa Rivers
That show no longer exists. I believe she was let go before it ended years ago.
Ryan Murphy seems WAY more powerful than anyone at Bravo. She hasn’t been in any of his billion projects in the last few years…
Instead of that million dollar wedding she should have paid her house off. Toy can take the person from the ghetto but not out of the person. She’s a pole dancer. Period.
Nene was not living in that house, at the time of her wedding! I would not put an extra million dollars in a house, if I did not have to.
I wonder if she sold or returned some of her luxury vehicles.
This has made me think about if it would have been possible for Nene to have longevity and still be working on movies, tv shows, productions etc. if she played her cards right. Or was she just the flavor of the month that went of out style as housewives wanes.
NeNe have always made everything about her! Start being nice! And people just might entertain you! I always knew Deep Down she was a dirty, narcissistic person! Gregg kept her humble.
Visited there some months ago on a Sunday afternoon for brunch and I ordered the chicken wings with sweet potato waffles, the food was delicious. The thing that was a turn off for me was they opened an hour late, the ladies were dressed inappropriately tacky for “Sunday brunch” it should’ve been more upscale attire and they pat you down and go through your purse.
THEY PAT YOU DOWN AND GO THROUGH YOUR PURSE? WHAT?
It seems like the last acting she’s done was an guest appearance on an episode of Dynasty in 2021 (according to IMDB). I don’t see that anyone will be knocking on her door for anything in the future. Sounds like she burned her bridges.
As for any other business ventures, I think her “fame” was the crutch she relied on. There was Nene Leakes, LLC which was formed in 2011 and Admin Dissolve in 2016. Then there was Linnethia Leakes LLC DBA Nene Leakes, in which Gregg was the Registered Agent. Formed in 2009 but filed as Flawed/deficient. I have to wonder if the crappy bar is then under The Leakes Group LLC. Gregg was the Registered Agent on that one too.
I see that Brentt has King B Entertainment LLC, so maybe she can work for him as a roadie
