Encino residents say illegal 'rage parties' at a $3.9 million mansion on Grimes Place bring intoxicated crowds, fights, and fear to their streets. LAPD has shut down gatherings, but neighbors want lasting consequences.
Residents in an Encino neighborhood say they are done with the illegal parties that swarm a mansion on the 4400 block of Grimes Place every weekend. Neighbors told KTLA that hundreds of partygoers descend on the property for gatherings that go well into the night, bringing loud music, intoxicated crowds, and confrontations that spill onto the street.
The parties have been promoted online as "rage parties," with organizers advertising events on TikTok and Instagram. Partygoers meet at off-site locations before being transported by bus to the home. Portable restrooms are brought in for the large crowds.
"There is no doubt, based on the noise and situation, that there are a ton of people in there," neighbor Oren Harel told KTLA. "I don't know their ages. All I know is I get this big marijuana smoke cloud coming into my backyard and I have kids. I don't want them exposed to that."
According to the Daily Mail, promotional flyers for an upcoming party advertised hibachi plates, bottle service, and a "Day + Night experience" with "pool party vibes" and "late night mansion energy." Tickets for one event were on sale for $28.52, with an "early bird special" for women already sold out.
Another flyer asked women to bring a bathing suit to be featured in a music video.
"We're BACCCCCK !! Hottest event to kick off the weekend after memorial day, bring all the vibes," one promotional post read.
Neighbor Rebecca Shakib said she watched four buses arrive and unload young men and women at the property for one of the parties.
Heather Michaels, an Encino neighborhood councilmember, said she has raised concerns about the property with law enforcement and city leaders in the past with little success in stopping the gatherings.
"The alarming activity that neighbors are seeing," Michaels said. "The streets are filled with vehicles, people walking in the street, drinking and doing who knows what else, is going on in the middle of the street, so neighbors feel very unsafe and threatened by this."
The Los Angeles Police Department has been called to the home multiple times over complaints about noise and fights. The most recent intervention occurred over the weekend when officers shut down a party, according to KTLA.
It is unclear whether the homeowner is also the person organizing the parties. When KTLA reporter Carlos Saucedo found a flyer for an upcoming event and called the listed number, a man who answered hung up after being asked questions about the property. The Daily Mail also reported that an organizer declined to answer questions.
Property records indicate the current owner purchased the Mediterranean-style mansion in January 2026 for $2.85 million. Zillow estimates the home's value at $3.9 million. The property features an in-ground pool overlooking the Hollywood Hills, a sundeck, multiple balconies, a gym, and maids' quarters.
Neighbors say they want consequences for both the party organizers and the property owner.
"If they can't respect the neighborhood, the neighbors and the kids, then there have to be consequences, not just to the tenants, but to the owner," Harel said.
The Daily Mail said it reached out to the LAPD for comment. KTLA did not report a response from the department at the time of publication.
