While Brooke Mueller has been in the limelight a lot for her personal problems lately, she's also been pretty busy behind the scenes.
In fact, while many thought Charlie Sheen's ex was flipping out, she was actually flipping properties—for a profit. Which is pretty impressive in such a depressed real estate market.
"She's an intelligent woman," a source close to Brooke tells E! News. "A lot of people don't know that Brooke is an extremely savvy, well-educated and highly intelligent person. It's unfortunate that they don't see that side of her."
Mueller's most recent flip, is a 9,200 square-foot compound which the actress purchased from former Spice Girl Mel B.
The four-bedroom home in the San Fernando Valley was listed as a "stunning celebrity gated compound," with a detached movie theater, guest house, pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, cabana and fire pit.
Brooke purchased the Tarzana home for $3 million in March 2012, and she's already received an offer for $3.55M—not bad for nine months' work!
