The new owner of the Playboy Mansion has agreed to maintain the facade in its original condition under an agreement with the city of Los Angeles.
Daren Metropoulos entered into a permanent protection covenant for the 5-acre (2-hectare) property he bought for $100 million.

Call a flipper. Let him get the interior.

Works for sanitizing hot tubs too.
We also use it, diluted to wash fresh vegetables when we bring them home from the store or in from the garden.
Many, many sanitizing uses for hydrogen peroxide when you have the good, strong stuff.
Exorcise the place, flood it with bleach and turn it into a nunnery.
Bulldoze the house to make room for a new bypass.
He ought to enshrine the spot in the grotto where Vanna was known to turn a few letters.
