Kyle Sandilands addresses legal feud with builders over his $5 million country estate - and insists his new podcast is paying for itself: 'The bills kept coming'

Kyle Sandilands is heading back to court as he battles with builders over work at his $5 million country estate. 

Alter Build Co Pty Ltd, a boutique construction company based in Sydney, filed a civil Statement of Claim against Sandilands in the NSW District Court, with the matter set to be heard later this month. 

The shock jock, who reportedly owes $200,000 to the builders, told A Current Affair on Monday that 'the bills kept coming' over work at the Glenorie property. 

'I'm not the state government where I just keep f***ing paying bills and paying bills,' Sandilands said. 

'We paid like f***ing $1.6 million or something and then just the payments or the bills kept coming.'

Sandilands called the issue a 'blip' on his radar and insisted that he wasn't even sure which of his lawyers was handling the court case.

'I've got no issue with the guys, but that's what the courts are for. They think one thing, I think another. So we just let some dude in a wig figure it out,' he said. 

'If I'm in the wrong, I'm happy to pay but if I'm not then I'm not paying.' 

The radio star also insisted his subscription-only new podcast venture, Kyle Sandilands Live, is profitable, despite attracting only around 55,000 listeners so far. 

'Well, I could be always happier, but yeah, it's going really well. It's paying for itself and paying for the staff,' he said. 

Alter Build Co. told A Current Affair that they are 'not in a position to comment' on the case, which is due before Downing Centre District Court on October 23. 

Court records indicate the filing relates to the sale of goods and services which appears to be connected to renovation works carried out at the Glenorie property. 

Located on a 9,580sqm block in Sydney's semi-rural north-west, Kingsview Estate is a six-bedroom, five-bathroom property that Sandilands purchased for $3 million in 2022. 

At the time, the incumbent king of FM radio was just weeks away from welcoming his first child, Otto, with wife Tegan Kynaston.

The following year, he and his then on-air co-host Jackie 'O' Henderson signed a reported 10-year, $200million contract with KIIS FM. 

However, the arrangement ended in March when Sandilands was suspended by parent company ARN and terminated following remarks he made about Henderson.

In June, Sandilands settled Federal Court proceedings with ARN for nearly $14 million, including a cash settlement of more than $12 million and advertising services valued at $1.5 million.

Sandilands took out a secondary $2 million mortgage on the Glenorie estate through Mortgage Holdings Group, reportedly carrying interest rates of more than 17 per cent. 

The elegant white house, which Sandilands proudly said was in the style of Elvis Presley's Graceland mansion, had replaced a gutted 1970s house on the acreage site.

Last year, Alter Build Co, a two-decade-old construction company headed by Andrew Kabourakis and William Teixeira, fenced off the site to undertake the renovation projects.

The end result was a two-storey Georgian-style house with a circular driveway leading to its porte-cochère.

Sandilands initially listed the property with price expectations of $5.7 million to $5.9 million before later reducing the guide to $4.9 million. 

The home is believed to have remained unsold.
