Take a look at Rick Ross’ 109-room $5.8 million mansion with a collection of supercars in the garage.
Rick Ross, aka William Leonard Roberts II, worked as a corrections officer for nearly two years after graduating from Albany State University. He changed his name from Teflon Da Don to Rick Ross, inspired by drug lord “Freeway”
Rick Ross. He signed a multimillion-dollar deal with Jay-Z’s Def Jam Records after releasing his smash song Hustlin. His first album peaked at number one and he sold tens of millions of singles and CDs. Rick Ross is one of the world’s highest-paid rappers, worth $55 million.
Rick Ross also invests in real estate. Over the last two decades, he has purchased multiple expensive Florida and Georgia homes. His most expensive house is a $5.8 million Georgia home he purchased from boxer Evander Holyfield, which features 109 rooms. Let’s go on a tour of Rick Ross’ lovely home.
In the 1980s, Evander Holyfield was the undisputed cruiserweight champion earning nearly $350 million. After a string of losses and declining endeavors, the former boxer retired to spend more time with his family.
One of his largest properties, his Georgia home, needed to be repaired. According to The Sun, the property was auctioned owing to foreclosure because it cost $1 million in maintenance. Holyfield sold the mansion to a bank for $7.5 million, and it was then advertised for $8.2 million. The auction began at $2.5 million, but Ross purchased it for $5.8 million.
Fayetteville County, Georgia, developed its property in 1994. The palace spans 235 acres and has 45,000 square feet. This property is magnificent, with a large fountain in the driveway and a white stone facade with moldings. All eyes are drawn to the beautiful double-winding staircase that leads upstairs. The 109 rooms contain 12 bedrooms and 21 bathrooms.
In addition to the mansion, Rick Ross has owned a number of properties. In 2012, he spent $5.2 million for a seaside Fort Lauderdale house featuring eight bedrooms and eleven baths. Celebrity Net Worth reported that he sold his Georgia estate for $6 million in 2016.
