Peter Falk has rich people's problems -- he claims a construction company did a lousy job on his Malibu remodel and wants some serious money.
According to a lawsuit obtained by TMZ, Falk and his wife hired Handy Andy Services to spruce up their beach pad. Falk claims, among other things, Handy Andy didn't pack the soil properly, didn't apply the proper paint, didn't re-install fire sprinklers, and didn't waterproof the house.
Peter and his wife are suing for unspecified damages.
A rep for the construction company tells TMZ, "This is slanderous to our company's name ... they still owe us $120,000. Falk's wife fired us after we refused to do electrical work outside in the rain."

Octomom Nadya Suleman and her 14 kids may become homeless ... because she's fallen behind on mortgage payments to the tune of more than $450,000 ... this according to the person who holds the note on the property.
Octomom bought the La Habra, CA house in March, 2009. The seller, Amer Haddadin, transferred title to Octo's dad. In return, Octo and her dad were required to make monthly payments of $4,139 for one year. On March 10, 2010, a balloon payment of $450,000 was due.
A rep for Amer tells TMZ Octo hasn't paid the $450,000. And, he says, she didn't make the last $4,139 payment. He also says, she's been late on three other recent monthly payments. Amer says he "tried to handle this in a gentlemanly way" but unfortunately it's come to this.
Amer's rep says he intends to initiate foreclosure proceedings against Octomom.
We could not reach Octo for comment.

Britney Spears is feeling the housing crunch in a big way -- the house she's been trying to unload for 18 months has been reduced by millions.
Brit put the six bedroom mansion on the market back in September 2008 for $7.9 million. It was eventually pulled off and re-listed on Realtor.com Monday for $5.5 million.
By the way, it's the home where paramedics showed up and placed Britney on a 5150 hold. She's now doing a lot better than the house.

According to court docs, Victoria must leave Dennis' compound on March 15. But in legal papers filed today and obtained by TMZ, Victoria claims the prenup she signed does require her to vacate one of the homes on the property, but she says she's living in a different, freestanding home on the property so she's allowed to stay.
Victoria also said in court she's broke and needs money, stat.
And, Victoria says in her legal docs, she believes Dennis is getting ready to die. She says, "I believe in contemplation of death [Dennis Hopper] may be intending to remove me as a beneficiary of any kind..."

Brittany Murphy's mom has just put her house up for sale -- the house where Brittany died ... TMZ has learned.

As we first reported, Brittany has left all of her assets to Sharon.
Monjack tells TMZ when the house is sold and Brittany's estate is wrapped up, he and Sharon are moving to New York.

Carl's Jr. salads must be selling by the truckload -- 'cause Kim Kardashian just scored a new $4.8 million mansion.

We're told Reggie Bush is planning on moving into the 4,000 square foot pad -- and with that much space, half of the New Orleans Saints could crash too.

Tiger Woods and wife Elin Nordegren just left the family house and drove separately to the home Elin is renting nearby ... witnesses tell TMZ.
As we first reported, Elin came to the family house this AM. Tiger hadn't left the house today until a few minutes ago, when he drove away in a white SUV. Elin followed behind in the red SUV and they drove to the home Elin is renting in the nearby development.
It's yet another piece of evidence that there is some solidarity between Tiger and Elin. This morning Elin was decked out in Nike -- the sponsor that stood behind Tiger.
Who knows ... they could work this out.

Rip Torn's burglary case -- which was supposed to go before a judge today but didn't -- may not stick ... ironically, because of alcohol.
Rip was arrested last month after cops found him inside a bank with a loaded gun. But today, Rip's lawyer, Tom Waterfall, told TMZ Rip has what may be an airtight defense -- he thought he was in his Connecticut home (left) and not in a bank (right).
So, you say, the house is green and the bank is yellow. Not when you've been drinking. You say the house appears smaller than the bank. Not when you've been drinking. And, Waterfall says, the bank was once a house.
Short story ... an old man comes home in the dark after a night of drinking, the keys don't unlock the door so he breaks the window, enters, and goes to sleep. When the cops arrive Torn even asks why they came to his home. So good luck to prosecutors who try to prove Rip had an intent to steal.
As for the firearms charges ... that's a toughie. Rip's in rehab and Waterfall hopes he can convince the judge to go easy.

Another member of the "Jersey Shore" juggernaut is finally cashing in on the fame -- the guy who owns the crew's infamous party house claims he's making 3x the cash from wannaGuidos looking to rent the place out.
TMZ spoke with the owner of the 3,200 square foot house who tells us ever since the show aired, demand to rent the place went through the roof.
The 6 bedroom, 3 bathroom house is currently going for $3,500 per night until May ... after that, it skyrockets up to $6,500 per night.
According to the owner, the legendary duck phone is still in the house -- as well as most of the couches, beds, tables and artwork that you saw on the show.
FYI -- the owner did mention that the home received a thorough cleaning after Snooki, The Situation and the rest of the gang moved out.

Michael Jackson's Las Vegas home is now in good hands -- a fan of MJ's just plunked down $3.1 million to be the new king of the singer's old castle.
Problem is ... selling the house wasn't as easy as you think. One of the real estate agents tells us after Michael's death, tons of fans flooded the mansion pretending to be potential buyers ... but were lying just to get a peek at the King of Pop's old digs.
One deep-pocketed fan ended up being the real deal -- and ended up buying the nearly 16,000 sq ft. palace.
