By Zach Armstrong

Dean Factor, Great-grandson of cosmetics mogul Max Factor, has reportedly sold his Malibu property for $37.5 million in a transaction that was off-market.

The Boathouse Trust, managed by Gelfand Rennert & Feldman accountant Enza Cohn, was the buyer and had secured a $27 million mortgage from City National Bank to fund the purchase. 

The property sits on a 0.4-acre plot. It features a three-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom primary residence and a three-bedroom guesthouse. Factor listed the property for $40 million earlier this year, after being on the rental market for over a year. The estate was most recently available to lease for $100,000 every month. 

Factor and his wife, Shannon, have owned the residence for more than 10 years. They bought the estate for $15.3 million in 2010.
