Police have raided the Sydney home of disgraced Salim Mehajer as part of an alleged investigation into a car crash he had on the way to court.

Mehajer was at the property when officers arrived on Wednesday morning but left in a flashy car after a brief conversation with detectives, according to Seven News.

The raid is reportedly linked to a police investigation into allegations of insurance fraud after Mehajer was involved in a car crash on his way to court on October 15.

Detectives wearing blue gloves were seen carrying a computer and a paper bags of evidence out of the controversial former deputy mayor of Auburn's lavish mansion.

Mehajer, 31, is facing two assault charges - against a taxi driver and a journalist - as well as legal action over business disputes.

A NSW Police spokesman was unable to confirm the reason for the raid, saying only there was a 'planned police operation underway in Sydney's southwest.'

'The search warrant relates to an ongoing investigation. No further information is available at this time,' he added.

Mehajer's lawyer Mahmoud Abbas strenuously denied suggestions the crash was anything other than an unfortunate accident.

When asked about the chances of Mehajer being involved in a car crash in the same week he had four court dates, Mr Abbas said: 'That's ridiculous if you're insinuating anything'.

Detectives in mid-October confirmed they were investigating allegations companies linked to Mehajer were involved in car insurance fraud.

The crash in mid-October, when Mr Mehajer was injured, is reportedly similar to two collisions in 2016.

The former deputy mayor was travelling to court on October 15 to face separate assault charges in his white Mercedes when he collided with another car.

He was stretchered from the scene with a neck brace and sent to hospital, delaying the hearing until early 2018.

In September, Mehajer claimed he was moving out of his Lidcome home after finding a tenant to move in for $3,000 a week.

The four-story house on Frances Street, which Mehajer illegally shut down for his extravagant wedding, was advertised for lease for $2,950 a week in early August.

He allegedly owes creditors $97 million for two companies of which he is the sole shareholder.

'It was one of the hardest things to let go of, my personal loan. Not for good though, just for a short term lease! ... Where will I go now though?' Mehajer posted to social media.

Creditors are seeking more than $97 million for money owed by Sydney Project Group Pty Ltd and S.E.T. Services Pty Ltd, according to their lawyer Andre Zahra.
