Daly Riordan property: The March 2 Hot Property column in the Real Estate section reported that Nancy Daly Riordan’s house on Carbon Beach had sold for a Malibu record-breaking price of $68 million. In fact, the house has not been sold. The story also reported that the home has more than 200 feet of beach frontage. Property records indicate it has 180 feet of beach frontage. Link The owner, Nancy Daly Riordan, sent a letter to the paper:

I was shocked to see my picture in the lead of Hot Property, March 2. My house was never on the market, and I did not sell it.
This has caused me undue distress and invasion of my privacy, on a national and international level. I have been ill, and the last thing I am supposed to endure is any kind of stress. I cannot estimate the damage that has been done to me and my family.
Since the story was printed, I have received calls, e-mails and have been sent Internet stories that are running internationally. A network television station had it as a teaser for their newscast with a helicopter flying over my property.
I just want it made clear that the house was never offered for sale
in the first place, and it never sold.

Thanks, Emerson!
