How Brandon Miller, A Powerful Real Estate Magnate, Tried To Pay Back His Loan Debts But Eventually Committed Suicide

Two months after her husband’s suicide, Candice Miller, the wife of real estate tycoon Brandon Miller, was sued for $195K in unpaid rent on a condo in New York City.

According to a recent report, Brandon Miller was so upset about his financial condition in July that he nearly broke down in tears when a lender confronted him.

An unnamed source who gave him a $208,000 loan in early June told the New York Times on Friday that the deceased real estate tycoon “came to almost crying.”

The lender claimed that because he had previously given Miller $1 million and the real estate entrepreneur had repaid all but $60,000 of that initial loan, he had consented to let Miller borrow from him in the first place.

The New York Times reports that the late real estate tycoon, who committed suicide in July, left his wife, Candice Miller, with a debt of $33.6 million.

However, Miller reportedly offered a portion of his $15 million Hamptons property as collateral for the second loan, despite having his back against the wall and a number of other reported outstanding debts.

According to the lender, the businessman stopped answering his calls and texts by the middle of June. After poisoning himself with carbon monoxide inside his white Porsche Carrera, he passed away soon after at the age of 43.

The lender now wishes he “had not exerted so much pressure” on Miller, he told the New York Times.

As he reportedly owed $4 million for a separate unpaid loan, which his wife, Candice Miller, has since settled, and $194,881.89 in unpaid rent for the couple’s former Park Avenue apartment in New York City, there were likely numerous other lenders contributing to the father of two’s mental anguish.

According to the New York Times, Brandon’s debt is closer to $33.6 million than previously thought, which Candice, 42, has now been left to deal with.

In an attempt to start over, the former Mama + Tata mommy blogger reportedly packed up her belongings and relocated to Miami with her two children.

In an attempt to pay off her late husband’s debt, she had also listed her Hamptons house for sale.

After Brandon’s passing, Candice ceased posting on her Mama + Tata blog, which had made her a well-known influencer.

Despite The Challenges, There Are Still Strong Growth In The Global Real Estate Markets

According to the New York Times, the 8,000-square-foot property, which was constructed in 2013, covers more than 1.12 acres, has a pool house, and modern amenities. It reportedly sold last week and contributed to the lender’s $208,000 debt settlement. However, he still owes $60,000 from his prior loan.

According to three people with knowledge of Brandon’s finances who spoke to the Times, he also left behind $15 million in life insurance and $8,000 in his bank account, which he told his wife about in his suicide note.

Even though Candice, who was left “devastated” by the death of her “soul mate,” may be gradually recovering, the Miller family experienced yet another devastating loss earlier this month.

According to Maurley Miller, the late real estate developer’s sister, Brandon’s mother, Barbara Miller, passed away at the age of 81 from a “broken heart.”
