It looks like Lisa Vanderpump wants to offload two of her iconic West Hollywood businesses. TomTom and Pump are both up for sale.
You might recall that the original Pump location closed in 2023 and was later merged into TomTom the following year. Now, it’s all up for grabs, and Lisa is using the Vanderpump Rules connection to help entice a buyer.
TomTom and Pump in West Hollywood are for sale including “intellectual” rights
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star listed both TomTom and Pump for sale, according to a listing from Urbanlime Real Estate. What’s interesting about the listing is that she’s not necessarily selling the building—she’s also selling the brand.
“This offering includes substantially all operating assets, including intellectual property, social media platforms, FF&E, goodwill, and proprietary operational systems—delivering a fully turnkey opportunity with unparalleled brand equity,” the listing reads.
Essentially, that means a new buyer could purchase the space while continuing to operate as TomTom and Pump. They’d be able to cash in on nearly a decade of reality TV exposure, all while situated in a high-traffic area of West Hollywood.
Of course, we’re all dying to know how many millions it would cost to secure this prime piece of real estate, and potentially, the brand that comes with it. Unfortunately, those details have not been publicly disclosed. According to the listing, you’ll have to sign an NDA to get details on the financials.
What we do know is that this real estate move comes just months after Lisa got candid about the state of the restaurant industry. She admitted in an episode of Vanderpump Rules that staying afloat was becoming increasingly difficult. She revealed that her other WeHo eatery, SUR, had been struggling financially.
“West Hollywood was the center of the nightlife in Los Angeles. But since COVID, it never seemed to recover. SUR has survived, but it hasn’t been thriving,” Lisa confessed.
At the time, Lisa said she was committed to keeping SUR open, which has held on for 20 years and counting. She said she didn’t want it to suffer the same fate as Pump, and now, possibly TomTom.
Lisa said, “I already made the decision to say goodbye to one baby. I’m not gonna do it again.”
Vanderpump Rules is streaming on Peacock.
