The “Beverly Hills, 90210” star owned property in the state, a records search showed. He lived there part-time, starting in the 1990s, the Tennessean reported.

Perry, who was born in Ohio and whose real name was Coy Luther Perry III, died at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, Calif., on March 4. He was 52.

He had a stroke at his Sherman Oaks, Calif., home Feb. 27. The person who called 911 urged first responders to “hurry up and get here,” audio released Tuesday reveals.

Perry's most recent role was on the CW series “Riverdale.” Production halted briefly after his death and the showrunner has said the rest of this season's episodes will be dedicated to the late star.
