Making up a chunk of Kylie Jenner’s real estate portfolio since she purchased it for USD$6.03million at the age of just 18, her Hidden Hills property, together with an adjacent plot of land sold for a total of USD$12.05million this year, according to Business Insider.
She’s not the only celebrity homeowner we’ve seen amass a serious real estate portfolio – Taylor Swift is reputed to own properties spreading right across the US, amassing a worth of around USD$84million, not least of which is a pair of townhouses situated side-by-side in New York City.
Ellen DeGeneres recently sold the Tuscan style villa in the California Hills she owned with wife Portia DeRossi and Kirsten Dunst’s to-die-for boho loft recently hit the market, fetching the Hollywood star a tidy sum of USD$4.4million, according to Apartment Therapy.
Perhaps the takeout here is that no matter how extensive the size of their personal wealth, celebrities continue to factor in real estate as a sound investment, with a revolving door of celebrity properties changing hands year in, year out across the world.
Whilst we may never know the real extent of wealth enjoyed by movie stars and reality TV starlets like Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian, watching their properties bounce around the real estate market is a nice reminder that one some level at least, they’re only human and perhaps we mere mortals can aspire to such wealth.
