At the time, Saxon’s lawyer, Neama Rahman, said she was happy to learn that West was selling the house so the profits could help pay off the $1 million debt allegedly owed to Saxon.

“Tony worked as a construction project manager and 24/7 security guard while Kanye was tearing the house down, and Kanye put him through hell, violating numerous labor and employment laws in the process,” Rahman said in a statement.

“This house was a ‘Picasso in the water’ before Kanye ordered Tony to tear it apart. “So while we are pleased that Kanye was eventually able to find the money to fulfill his obligations to Mr. Saxon, buyers beware.”
