YOUR MAMAS NOTES: Thanks to our eagle eyed and big mouthed pal Malibu Maybelle, Your Mama has learned that real estate young gun Madison Hildebrand has put his Point Dume townhouse on the market with an asking price of $1,270,000.

Surely all the children recognize Young Mister Hildebrand's name, right? Along with selling heaps of high-priced properties all up and down the Pacific Coast Highway, he recently appeared in his scanty skivvies on the cover of Playgirl–and even less inside–and appeared the Bravo's most recent season of Million Dollar Listing. In case you don't recall, Mister Hildebrand was the less bitchy broker who was confused about whether he wanted to date boys or girls. Amid all those house tours, photo shoots and sexuality struggling, the toothy real estate powerhouse has somehow found the time to also write a self-help book called Activate Your Passion, Create Your Career No Matter Who You Are.

Good grief. This boy makes Your Mama feel like the laziest person on the damn planet.

Anyhoo, say what you will about Mister Hildebrand's self-described polyamorousness (and we're sure you will), but keep in mind that property records show the twenty something year old real estate wunderkind purchased his first townhouse home in December of 2005 for $980,000, a stunning financial achievement that few folks under 25 can claim.

Property records and listing information indicate the two story townhouse measures 1,687 square feet and includes 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms plus an office. The end unit has an upside down layout with bedrooms on the ground floor and living spaces on the second and is conveniently located just off the PCH. But perhaps best of all, the townhouse includes a coveted key to the private Riviera III beach where we imagine Mister Hildebrand frequently strutted his shirtless stuff and worked on his soft bronze tan.

The townhouse is built around a small, private and hanky panky friendly courtyard that includes lots of potted vegetation and an in ground spa perfect for Mister Hildebrand to strip down and entertain the ladees. Or the gentleman. Or both. Whatever.

Other amenities include a two car garage where Mister Hildebrand parks his late model Range Rover (and a big-ass BMW), both wood and Spanish tile floors, and loads of blue and yellow tile work throughout the unit. The good sized living room features high beamed ceilings, a large Spanish chandelier which we like, and way more brown leather furniture than should ever be permitted in one house. The dining area, where a flat screen tee-vee has been haphazardly and unfortunately mounted to the wall next to some crazy image of a zebra, is open to and adjacent to the ass-uglee kitchen with its upsetting light fixture and leads to a small but cozy terrace where Mister Hildebrand barbecues amid a score Moroccan lanterns hanging from the trellis.

Malibu Maybelle swears that she does not know why Mister Hildebrand is selling or where he's moving, but we can all be assured that with his bulging bank account he'll be packing all his Afro-ethnic meets Andalusia day-core and moving it to someplace larger and more expensive. Bully for him.

Meanwhile, in other Million Dollar Listing news, scruffy faced Josh Flagg–the one who was taken to the pokey for allegedly stealing paintings and was later cleared of the charges–has recently scooped upt the listing for Eddie Murphy's ex-wife Nicole's Calabasas crib. Last October, when Your Mama discussed the 9,214 square foot house, it was priced at $9,995,000. The house appears to have been re-staged and had a machete taken to the asking price which is currently at $8,495,000. Nothing like a 1.5+ million dollar price cut to drum up bizness.

We also hear that Chad Rogers, the one with the upsetting bowl haircut, has seen the light and gotten himself a slightly less girlish haircut.
