Real Housewives’ Lisa Hochstein renting South Beach condo for $32K per month

“The Real Housewives of Miami” star Lisa Hochstein found a new home in South Beach. 

Hochstein is leasing a luxury condo on the second floor of One Ocean, a building the Related Group developed at 1 Collins Avenue and completed in 2016, according to information from the Multiple Listing Service that matches images of the unit posted online. 

Hochstein moved out of the Star Island mansion she previously shared with her soon-to-be ex-husband, plastic surgeon Lenny Hochstein, according to Page Six. She moved into the 5,600-square-foot unit with five bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. 

Tatiana Everett, with the Abella Group at Compass, was the listing agent. She said the tenant signed a multi-year lease agreement for the space, which included the ability for Hochstein to film there. 

Lisa Hochstein told The Real Deal that she decided on the condo, which she said was “obviously beautiful,” in part because her “soon-to-be-ex wanted me and the kids to be very close to the Star Island mansion and close to school.” 

Lenny Hochstein is contributing $17,000 a month for the lease, Lisa said. She toured 30 to 40 homes in the three months she spent looking for a unit to lease. Asking prices for luxury rentals have skyrocketed in Miami Beach since the pandemic. 

“We were just having a really hard time getting a five-bedroom place very close in South Beach that feels like a house and didn’t make me feel alienated from the kids,” she said. “I didn’t want to feel like the kids didn’t want to stay with me.” 

Hochstein is living in the unit with her children and her boyfriend, Jody Glidden, who recently listed his waterfront home at 250 South Hibiscus Drive for sale asking $14 million with Compass agent Eli Faitelson. Glidden “really stepped up and helped contribute” to Lisa’s lease because Lenny Hochstein wouldn’t contribute more than the $17,000 a month, according to a source. 

Property records show an affiliate of Miami Beach-based Auckland Holdings paid $8.3 million for the unit in 2016. The company and other related entities own seven condos in the area. 

Lisa and Lenny Hochstein have been going through a highly publicized divorce, which was featured on the most recent season of the reality TV show. Court records show Lenny filed an urgent motion in August to rescind the marital settlement agreement they had reached. 

He paid $2 million for the home at 42 Star Island Drive in 2012. The couple tore down the previous home to build the three-story, 18,000-square-foot mansion that exists today.

The property was at the center of drama between Lisa Hochstein and co-star Larsa Pippen. Pippen claimed that the Hochsteins were renting their house out for events and shoots to pay the mortgage.

Although the divorce is not yet final, Lenny Hochstein is now engaged to model Katharina Mazepa.

Lisa Hochstein signed the lease at One Ocean in early September, according to the MLS. 

The 46-unit condo building includes retail space on the ground floor. Last year, investor Robert Rivani paid $12.2 million for a 13,500-square-foot commercial unit. Philippe by Philippe Chow recently signed a 15-year lease for the restaurant space.
