Celebs might get paid impressive fees for the work, but it’s what they do with it afterwards that really counts. Plenty of stars dabble in property making major profits – and sometimes losses. Here are 10 of the most expensive celebrity homes to hit the property market in 2021. Tom Cruise Tom Cruise sold his massive ranch in Colorado for US$39.5 million earlier this year. Cruise bought the Telluride, Colorado, mansion in 1994, and he sold it in just two months. “The sale of this estate marks an all-time high for Telluride and the surrounding community,” the listing agent told realtor.com in May. The 10,000-sq-ft main house sits on 130 hectares (320 acres) and includes a spa, a sports court and a two-bedroom guest house. 10 most successful Harry Potter child stars, ranked – so who’s on top? Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Tim McGraw and Faith Hill sold their private island in the Bahamas for a whopping US$35 million. After the couple bought the eight-hectare (20-acre) island known as L’île d’Anges or Goat Cay in 2003, they spent the next few years building a mansion. The house, which was finished in 2012, is 6,500 sq ft and has four bedrooms. The island also includes beach yurts and staff quarters. “We set out to build a house. We had no idea we had to build everything else,” Hill told Architectural Digest in 2017. “We basically had to build a little town.” The property, which went on the market in February, has since sold, according to the Knight Frank listing. The Weeknd The Weeknd sold his Los Angeles house to Madonna for $19.3 million. He bought the Hidden Hills home in 2017 for US$18.2 million and put it on the market back in 2019 for US$25 million. Madonna scooped it up for US$5 million less in April. The sprawling house is 12,500 sq ft with seven bedrooms. The estate also has a two-bedroom guest house, a pool, a spa, a basketball court and a wine cellar. Shiloh Jolie-Pitt and Suri Cruise at 15: how do their teenage years compare? Dustin Johnson Pro golfer Dustin Johnson renovated a mansion in Florida and then immediately sold it for US$16 million. In 2015, Johnson bought the mansion in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, for US$5 million, and spent the next few years renovating the home. When renovations were complete in April, he sold the 13,300 sq ft home for US$16 million. The mansion has a private island, a private boat ramp, an in-ground pool and seven bedrooms. Miguel Rivera, who was the listing agent, said that Johnson “made the home his own”, but eventually, the pro golfer decided it was “not what he wanted in the end”. Shaquille O’Neal After sitting on the market for three years, Shaquille O’Neal’s Florida compound finally found a buyer at US$11 million. Shaq bought the house in 1993 for less than US$4 million. In 2018, he put the house on the market for US$28 million, but after a lack of interest, the basketball star dropped the price several times, ultimately selling for US$11 million in October. The house is located in the exclusive Isleworth community in Florida and has 12 bedrooms, a home theatre, views of the lake and marble floors. Who’s the richest Jonas?

Clarkson bought the Encino, California, house in 2018 for US$8.5 million. She listed the property in May 2020 for US$9.995 million, but it was taken off the market when it was announced the singer was getting a divorce. She relisted the property earlier this year with a US$1 million price cut, and it sold in September for US$8.2 million. The house has eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, wood beams on the ceiling and a two-floor guest house. (Clarkson did make a profit by when she sold her Tennessee lake house, though.) Justin Bieber Justin Bieber sold his Beverly Hills mansion for just under US$8 million after trying to find buyers on Instagram for a year. In 2019, Bieber posted Instagram pictures of his Beverly Hills mansion and asked if anyone was interested in buying it.
