Lambiet, citing two real estate sources, says the rental runs from December through May, with a rent of $600,000 for that entire period, and that Gates, his wife, Melinda Gates and their three children are scheduled to move into the home shortly.
Lambiet says Gates also has an option to buy the home, which is on the market for $12.9 million, and that he can put the $600,000 toward the purchase.
