Selling Sunset villain Davina Potratz is living in a modest $1,600 a month apartment building while listing a $75million super mansion on the hit Netflix real estate show.
The brunette real estate agent’s rental just off the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood is a world away from the ultra-luxury properties she is seen selling on TV.
A studio in the building can be rented for just $1,600 a month including utility bills and cable television, while one bedroom apartments going for around $2,700 a month.
Her modest abode contrasts starkly with claims that mean girl Davina has secured sales of over half a billion dollars during her career as a realtor.
DailyMail.com can also reveal that despite suggestions on the show that the former model is around 30, public records show that the German-born star was in fact born in 1977 and is 42.
Fans had already raised suspicions over Davina’s age after finding out that she first obtained her real estate license in 2006.

Since Selling Sunset’s second season, Davina has been seen handling the listing of a $75million mansion in Beverly Hills
The company’s website says: ‘Throughout her career, Davina has secured property sales in excess of over half a billion dollars and served as an international sales and marketing consultant at several branded and marquee luxury developments.’
Since Selling Sunset’s second season, Davina has been seen handling the listing of a $75million mansion in Beverly Hills.
Set on an acre of land, the property features nine bedrooms and 12 bathrooms and is currently owned by real estate developer Adnan Sen.
Despite struggling to find a buyer, Davina recently said: ‘It is a great opportunity. It’s almost two million dollars in commission.
‘So I think anyone who knows all the facts should certainly give it a shot.’
Davina’s boss Jason Oppenheim recently fired back at critics of the show, telling Page Six: ‘As a licensed agent, Davina had transacted many deals before joining the team in 2018.
This comes as Chrissy Teigen said she has ‘never seen’ any of the show’s stars on on her real estate search, and neither have her agents
The 34-year-old wife of John Legend took to Twitter after her streaming binge to share her thoughts on the show
‘Any insinuation that the agents on our show are not experienced, successful, or licensed, evidences a complete disregard for the facts.
‘Even a superficial investigation would identify previous team photos, hundreds of millions in transacted sales, and more than 50 years of combined licensed real estate experience from these agents.’
Davina is seen by many fans as Selling Sunset’s villain after she had a dramatic season 3 finale bust up with co-star Chrishell Stause.
Former soap actress Chrishell, 39, was just learning about her divorce from This Is Us actor husband Justin Hartley when Davina refused to support her and claimed there were ‘two sides to the story’.
Davina later claimed that there was no bad blood between her and Chrishell, saying: ‘I want to be neutral and that does not mean that I defend Justin and don’t support Chrishell.
‘I absolutely support Chrishell and she knows that. I have nothing but compassion and empathy for Chrishell and her situation.’
