REAL Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna and her husband Harry Hamlin might be rich, but they took out $4.3million in mortgages on their home, The U.S. Sun has exclusively learned.
The reality TV couple bought their Beverly Hills mansion more than 20 years ago for an undisclosed price, and it boasts five bedrooms and four bathrooms.

Over the last five years, they have saddled it with three huge home loans as they reorganize their finances.
According to property records seen by The U.S. Sun, the first was for $2,833,000 in August 2018, while the second was in August 2019 for $617,000, and the final one in April this year stands at $930,000.
The lavish home is now worth around $4.9million according to realtor sites, but the $4,388,800 in loans nearly wipes out the equity in the couple's house.
All of the loans were taken out with City National Bank, nicknamed "Bank of the Stars" by experts, as it's renowned for offering bumper loans to celebrities.
Lisa, 59, previously revealed the couple married in an intimate ceremony in the backyard at the home back on March 29, 1997, with chandeliers adorning the trees.
According to LA Home, Harry, 71, had the house built from the ground up in 1986 and it has a French Provincial design with antique furnishings that make the home "mature like a fine wine."

Lisa previously told the outlet: "Harry built the house so that you don't have to take your shoes off. I wanted to build a house that got better as it got older.
"The idea is that the chips and cracks that accumulated over time would add to the effect so it matured like a fine wine. I didn't want it to look new all the time."
It was once a smaller house with an overgrown backyard where singer Bonnie Raitt lived, while Quincy Jones has also rented the abode Harry designed and rebuilt.
Lisa and her husband share two daughters, Delilah Belle, 25, and Amelia Gray, 22, who both grew up at the home which is now resplendent with family memories.
According to LA Home, their backyard merges into a rolling forest that is Franklin Canyon Park which has hiking trail access and is close to actor Jack Nicholson's home.
Harry previously talked about the number of golfballs scattered on the canyon below and on their property, joking: "I've had a handful of Jack Nicholson's balls."
The huge home spans more than 4,000 feet and Harry has been seen on RHOBH baking pies in the double stove kitchen with a large island perfect for family gatherings.
POOL PLAN
The coupe's eight-seat dining room also has plenty of natural light for entertaining their friends and co-stars on the show.
Lisa loves to show off her dance moves throughout the house in Instagram videos, and her closet is packed with designer garms for filming the show.
Her main cozy bedroom features white and rustic furnishings with a large bed, gold mirror, and a love seat.
Bravo previously showed Lisa's cluttered office where she is used to handling business for the showbiz family.
Although the home doesn't appear to have a swimming pool right now, it does boast a huge jacuzzi in one of the main bedrooms next to a window overlooking the garden.
Appearing on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen two years ago, Lisa explained: "We don't have a pool right now. We have a pool that's covered over. Long story short, the power pole is over the pool that we want to redo."
She also said: "The kids were young, and I was too paranoid to have a pool, so I kept it covered. That's the story of the pool ... I was too scared that they would drown!"
Lisa explained they had plans to put the pool back in at the property.
Harry built the house when he was with his ex-wife, Laura Johnson, whom he was married to from 1985 to 1989.
According to reports, his second wife, actress Nicollette Sheridan, refused to live in the house so he temporarily moved out to be with her, but he returned after getting together with Lisa.
From his engagement to actress Ursula Andress, Harry also has a son named Dimitri Alexander Hamlin.
