JAMES' NEW HOME
In May, The U.S. Sun exclusively reported that James dropped over $1million on the property.
He was previously living with his girlfriend, Ally Lewber, 27, in an apartment that was featured on the latest season of VPR.
According to real estate records obtained by The U.S. Sun, the deejay officially purchased the Burbank property on March 15 for $1.35million.
Records also show he took out a loan of $1.08million to complete the new home purchase.
James' new home has over 1,300 square feet of space and has three bedrooms and two custom-designed bathrooms.
Per the listing, the home is "redesigned and reimagined" and has all-new roofing, windows, hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, and outdoor fencing.
James previously showed off his luxurious new backyard while interacting with his followers and sharing photos in an Instagram Q&A.
In one, the TV personality smiled while standing in front of his pool, sporting a white T-shirt and a baseball cap, making a peace sign at the camera.
In a later post, James gave viewers a better look at his backyard oasis by capturing a full view of the pool, surrounded by his perfectly manicured landscape, a patio area, and a white fence.
However, it appeared there was more work to be done on the space, as the TV star noted: "The backyard is almost ready for summer."
James has also shown off the updates to the renovations of the home's music studio, which includes plenty of equipment and sound-absorbing panels.
It seems as if James has been enjoying his brand new space - especially with his resurfaced family member.
BACK TOGETHER AGAIN
Last week, the SUR DJ took to Instagram to make an announcement regarding his beloved pup.
James shared two new photos with Graham, the dog he bought with his ex Raquel Leviss years ago when they were still a couple.
Amid their split in December 2021, Raquel, 28, took custody of the shared pup.
James and Raquel were broken up during the most recent season of VPR, however, James was seen meeting up with his ex at a public park so James could spend time with the dog he helped raise.
Things have now taken a turn, however, as Raquel has been spending the past few months in a mental health facility amid the Scandoval fallout.
After it was discovered that Raquel had been having a months-long affair with her friend and co-star Tom Sandoval, 40, Raquel immediately went off the grid following the season 10 reunion filming.
Although Raquel has recently left the facility, after being unable to care for the dog for so long, James announced that he will be Graham's caretaker from now on.
It was also revealed that Raquel had dropped Graham off at a shelter due to behavioral issues that included biting.
After he arrived at the shelter, Lisa Vanderpump's organization, the Vanderpump Dog Foundation, worked out a way for Graham and James to be reunited.
Sources told TMZ that the musician got the dog in training classes and has seen improvement.

Additionally, James is reportedly happy to have his pooch back in his possession and has renamed him to Hippie as an ode to his godfather.
