Biden, 53, and his wife, Melissa Cohen, 37, rented a sleek property in Venice Beach overlooking the Grand Canal in 2021.
But quickly, their stay turned out to be a headache for then-owner Jonathan Neman, co-founder and CEO of Sweetgreen, who decided to sell the home last year at a major loss.
“They were totally disrespectful of Jonathan and [his wife] Leora’s property,” a source alleged to the Daily Mail. “Melissa was rude and entitled. They destroyed the stereo equipment in the home and when someone came to fix it, they were uncooperative. They also left the place dirty.”
Hunter Biden faces new allegations of trashing his Venice Beach rental and refusing to pay $80,000 in rent.
“Melissa was rude and entitled. They destroyed the stereo equipment in the home and when someone came to fix it, they were uncooperative. They also left the place dirty,” the source said.
Once Biden and Cohen moved out in 2022, Neman unloaded the three-story home for $3.94 million. He purchased it in 2017 for $4.85 million, records obtained by The Post show.
Not only did Neman sell at a loss, but Biden also allegedly owed him three months’ rent equaling $80,000.
Biden and Cohen only lived in the residence for about six months — meaning they allegedly skipped on 50% of the rent before moving to Malibu.

Sweetgreen co-founder Jonathan Neman sold the home at a $1 million-plus loss.
Neman could only shift the property after cleaning up the Bidens’ damage, but ultimately “decided not to take Hunter to court for the arrears,” the source added.
“It’s not that he needed the money and frankly it was embarrassing.”
The Post has reached out to Neman, who founded the farm-to-table salad chain along with Nicolas Jammet and Nathaniel Ru in 2007, for comment.

The home is situated at the edge of a canal, and is now worth $4.2 million.
The home has been repainted black since the new owners purchased it after Hunter Biden moved out.
Hunter Biden and Melissa Cohen left the home in “disarray” when they moved out and owed approximately $80,000 in outstanding rent, a source alleges.
The three-story home occupies 3,375 square feet and comes with a renovated roof deck.
Occupying 3,735 square feet, the two-bedroom, three-bathroom residence has been repainted black by the new owners.
Features include a pool designed by Juniper Tedhams, 25-foot-high acoustic ceilings, a contemporary white limestone floor and a hidden TV inside the wall of the living room, the previous listing notes.
The home boasts two primary bedrooms, one with a view of the pool and the other with a private balcony with views of the historic canal.

“Hunter and Melissa were horrible tenants. Not only did they stiff the owner for months of rent, they left the house in terrible condition,” a source said.
There’s also a spiral staircase that leads to the rooftop terrace that Neman renovated.
