At the end of each year, we at AD can’t help but take a moment to look back at the major moves that the biggest power players made in real estate. In 2024, celebrities and business titans bought and sold multimillion dollar properties across California, in Miami, and abroad. Below, we’ve rounded up the top 10 priciest celebrity real estate transactions of the year.
Caroline Wozniacki and David Lee, $37 million
In June, Danish tennis Olympian Caroline Wozniacki and her husband, retired NBA All-Star David Lee, sold their penthouse on Miami’s Fisher Island for $37 million. The five-bedroom unit sits atop the Palazzo Del Sol, a luxe 10-story building that was completed in 2016. Clocking in at 7,000 square feet, the dwelling boasted an Art Deco–inspired chef’s kitchen, custom marble media walls, and an additional 5,000 square feet of outdoor space, including a roof deck with a swimming pool.
Kendrick Lamar, $42 million
Pulitzer Prize–winning rapper Kendrick Lamar became next-door neighbors with Gwyneth Paltrow in May when he bought a modern farmhouse estate in Brentwood. Mansion Global reported that the musician was in escrow to buy the property from Viet Dinh, the former chief legal and policy officer at Fox Corp. Records show that an LLC tied to the “Not Like Us” rapper actually bought two adjacent parcels from the Vietnamese-American legal chief: a 16,200-square-foot main home and a smaller 3,400-square-foot abode that’s easily accessible from the backyard of the larger property. In total, Lamar paid $42 million for the compound.
Neymar, $54.45 million
