He is accused of skimming rent from a wealthy businesswoman's luxury London apartment.
Babaee denies claims, stating expenses were legitimate business costs.

TV property developer Kam Babaee is being sued for allegedly defrauding a wealthy businesswoman out of £2.3 million. Babaee, who appeared on Channel 4's 'Britain's Most Expensive Houses,' is accused of siphoning off rent money from an exclusive London apartment managed for One Unique LLC, owned by Bita Daryabari.

The lawsuit alleges Babaee misrepresented the rent collected from four tenants, who paid up to £1 million annually between 2020 and 2024. Lawyers for Ms. Daryabari claim he doctored tenancy agreements and other documents to conceal the misappropriated funds, funneling some to his son and wife. Babaee denies these claims, maintaining the money was used for legitimate business expenses.
