Where is Kanye West living now?

According to property records, Kanye West — now known as Ye — purchased a $35 million property in Beverly Park North, an exclusive gated community in Beverly Hills. The 20,000-square-foot mansion sits on nearly seven acres and has 11 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms.

The estate sits in a gated community that stars like Eddie Murphy, Denzel Washington, and Justin Bieber have called home.

The purchase was made in an off-market deal through the same LLC the rapper used to sell his "remodelled" Malibu estate.

Kanye's Beverly Park mansion

Sitting on a massive 6.79-acre lot, the property was originally designed by renowned architect Richard Landry, blending sleek modern aesthetics with high-end comfort.

The estate includes a private movie theatre, resort-style pools, a tennis court, and various entertainment and leisure amenities.

The deal was done off-market, and according to TMZ, West paid $35 million — roughly $10.5 million more than its previous owner paid for the home in early 2022.

Did Kanye West also live in a West Hollywood apartment?

Before buying Beverly Park, Ye briefly settled for something far more modest. Instead of making a permanent relocation to another sprawling property, Kanye reportedly lived in a $20,000-per-month apartment in West Hollywood with his wife, Bianca Censori.

His daughter North was apparently a fan. Kim Kardashian revealed on an episode of The Kardashians that their daughter preferred her dad's way of living: "North, she'll go to her dad's, she'll be like, 'Dad is the best. He has it all figured out. He doesn't have a nanny. He doesn't have a chef. He doesn't have security. He lives in an apartment,' Kim said on the show.

What happened to Kanye West's Hidden Hills mansion?

When West and Kardashian bought the home for $20 million in 2014, the 15,667-square-foot, eight-bedroom estate was described as a French Country-style home with dual baths, two swimming pools, two barbecue centres, two spas, a sauna, and a vineyard.

The couple then transformed it entirely. They worked closely with Belgian architect Axel Vervoordt to completely remodel the home, creating a stark, almost church-like aesthetic, with Kanye calling it a "futuristic Belgian monastery."

After years of renovations and sinking over $40 million into purchasing and altering the sprawling California mansion, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West revealed the residence through Architectural Digest. Upon completion in 2019, the Hidden Hills mansion was valued at $60 million.

Kardashian and West divorced in 2022, and the Hidden Hills estate remained with Kim.

Kanye West's Malibu house: the $36 million disaster

Kanye West's Malibu house became one of the most notorious real estate stories of the decade — and one of the costliest.

How much did Kanye pay for the Malibu house?

The rapper doled out a whopping $57.3 million in cash for the residence in autumn 2021, then controversially gutted the place in preparation for a redesign.

Shortly after purchasing the Tadao Ando-designed house, West ripped out every fixture and furnishing, knocked out the windows, removed the doors, and appeared to be preparing for an extensive renovation.

Yeezy reportedly wanted to transform the home into a bomb shelter, then seemingly got sick of the project and bailed.

How much did Kanye sell the Malibu house for?

He proceeded to rip out all the windows, doors, and interior finishes before changing his mind and listing the vacant concrete shell at $53 million. The price was later slashed to $39 million, and after languishing for nearly three years, it finally sold for $21 million — a staggering $36 million less than West paid.

Kanye sold the place to Belwood Investments, a "real estate crowdfunding firm" based in California.

Selling Sunset agent Jason Oppenheim handled the listing. He acknowledged the challenges plainly:

"What's missing are the interiors. It's priced to reflect the need for the interior finishes to be replaced. On the positive, it can be brought up to 2024 standards — it was built about 10 years ago." — Jason Oppenheim, via The Hollywood Reporter

Before the property was listed, West was sued by contractor Tony Saxon, who claimed the performer owed him more than $1 million for his work on the gut renovation.

Kanye West's Wyoming ranch

Before any of his Malibu troubles, Ye had retreated to wide-open spaces in Wyoming.

Monster Lake Ranch

Kanye West purchased Monster Lake Ranch near Cody, Wyoming, for approximately $14.5 million in 2019 — a sprawling property that became the recording base for Jesus Is King and Donda, representing a deliberate withdrawal from Los Angeles media intensity into creative solitude.

Bighorn Mountain Ranch

Ye sold Bighorn Mountain Ranch — one of his two sprawling Wyoming properties — for $14 million, with the buyers being the very same Flitner family he bought it from in 2019. The 6,713-acre high-country estate returns to Greg and Pam Flitner.

When West acquired the ranch in 2019, his ambitious vision included a combined mega-ranch featuring a "Yeezy Campus" and self-sustaining creative spaces. He also used Bighorn as a private retreat during his divorce from Kardashian, calling it his "therapy ranch," where he worked on his 2021 album Donda and hosted high-profile guests — including Justin Bieber.

West's wife, Bianca Censori, notarised the sale of Bighorn on his behalf in Switzerland in late September.

Kanye West's net worth

Kanye West's net worth is the most contested figure in celebrity finance. Forbes estimates $400 million; Kanye claims $2.77 billion, based on a January 2025 valuation from Eton Venture Services.

Following antisemitic remarks in late 2022, Adidas terminated their Yeezy partnership, Balenciaga severed ties, and Gap ended their collaboration. Forbes stripped Kanye of billionaire status virtually overnight, recalculating his worth from approximately $2 billion to $400 million.

In January 2025, West posted a message to Instagram from Eton Venture Services:

"In 2025, Ye's net worth stands at $2.77 billion USD as confirmed by Eton Venture Services. The valuation is based on his music portfolio and his sole ownership of the Yeezy mark." — Eton Venture Services, via Instagram

Forbes' estimate of $400 million relies on verifiable assets and liquid holdings, counting his music catalogue (~$130M), Skims stake (~$128M), cash (~$100M), and real estate (~$75M).

His income sources include:

- Music catalogue and touring revenue

- Yeezy brand (independent, post-Adidas)

- Estimated 5% equity stake in Kim Kardashian's Skims

- Real estate portfolio
