Family Background
Married since July 2017, they have three sons: Shai (9), Rio (3) and Milan (1). They lived in Los Angeles for 16 years. Peta Murgatroyd is a two-time “Dancing With the Stars” champion; Maksim Chmerkovskiy is a professional DWTS dancer.
Timeline
Property records listed the Valley Village home for rent in June 2026; the family posted a YouTube video and Instagram captions on June 29 2026; they confirmed residence in Boca Raton in July 2026. The listing appeared about 20 days before the video.
Property Listing and Financial Details
The 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom, ~4,300-sq ft Valley Village home was listed for $18,000 per month. Amenities include herringbone oak floors, solid alder doors, oak ceilings, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, custom cherry wood cabinetry, and a hidden pantry.
Official Statements
Peta Murgatroyd’s Instagram captions noted “tears you don’t expect” and that “sometimes you have to leave what’s comfortable to find what’s meant for you.” She added “our boys are so happy, our hearts are full, and we’re incredibly grateful for this new chapter.”
