While his present abode screams grandeur, his start-off was not as regal as now.

Kanye West’s childhood home

The rapper from Atlanta has come a long way from the humble beginnings of the three-bedroomed walls of Chicago. As per the reports, his early boarding where he lived with his mother was sold off in 2003. The 1600-square-foot house was re-purchased by West in 2020 ahead of ‘Donda’s’ drop as a tribute to his birth giver. After buying the house for $225,000, Ye spent a sizable amount on its renovation.

While Kanye West is known for going above and beyond for his music, this characteristic is also similar to his lookout for cityscapes.

Even though Kanye West is eyeing building a city in the Middle East now, he ensured to etch his standards of living even at his run within the city slopes long back. And being the attestor of the best, his abode in the buzzing, prime-time city of the world also did not fail its grip. The Grammy winner reportedly bought a chic New York apartment in SoHo at 25 West Houston Street back in 2004.

In the first stretch of the 2000s, West’s uphill journey was evidence of his success both as a rap artist and as a producer. The ‘Flashing Light’s singer made his first home purchase in 2003, starting steadily to the lucrative list of real estate assets with a 200-square-foot sea-view abode near Sunset Strip. Although the place was put on the market back in 2010, it took him seven years for the offer to get doubled from what he initially paid. Finally, the lodging was liquidated in 2017 at $2.95 million.

During these years, the love story of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian was in its blooming stage. As a result, Ye put his stakes in a Miami condo to ensure her comfort when the SKIMS founder was visiting the city.

Kanye West and Kim’s love affair was in the talks for many reasons. But most importantly, for their generous gestures for each other. It happened to be so that the present Best Gospel Artist had previously understood the importance of spending quality time which led to his investment in a $14 million Miami pad which is a 4730-square-foot house followed by a $9 million worth house in Silicon Valley.

Following their offload, the pair again bought a 15,667 square-foot home in Hidden Hills in Los Angeles. It had risen to a whopping worth of $60 million after its renovations. Shortly after, the couple went on a spree of claiming posh habitats. It included the $.6.3 worth of La Quinta vacation house to a 3,700 square-foot Parisian penthouse in the city of lights.

The famous residence designed by Tadao Ando is the $57.3 million Malibu beach house. Over the years, it has seen the likes of many prominent hoarders from the entertainment industry. The four-bedroomed extravagance remains a part of West’s assets along with the Monster Lake Ranch which he bought in 2019. However, this 5000-acre property was put on the market with a noteworthy figure of $11 million, which ultimately suffered some loss.

Despite this, his love for Wyoming did not stop. As a result, Kanye West splurged over $14,000,000 on yet another ranch. He desired to imitate his minimalist grandeur from the Hidden Hills mansion. The abode now features two helicopter pads amidst the lush natural greens and exhilarating mountain views.
