Breese's business was doing well and he decided to buy land in the University Heights area of San Diego, California and have a house built. He also bought a white Thunderbird for his wife, Ila, and a beauty shop named Juniper's Beauty Shop on Juniper Avenue. Still considered a celebrity, Breese hosted many parties at his custom built house and attended many parties at the Mississippi Room at the Imig Manor later known as the Layfeyette Hotel where Hollywood's most glamorous stars came to dine and dance.
