Dr. Dre may have made most of his millions via music and Beats Electronics however he made a few milli out of his own home.
TMZ is reporting that the Compton native recently sold his home for $32.5 million. He originally bought the six-bedroom mansion in December 2011 for $15.4 million through a trust, according to property records. It was initially listed for $35 million when he put the home up for sale.
The mansion is 9,696 square feet and overlooks downtown Los Angeles from the Hollywood Hills. As to where Dre will be living now? He purchased Tom Brady and Giselle Bündchen’s Brentwood, California mansion for $40 million last May. It is estimated Dr. Dre is worth around $800 million after Apple announced they would buy Beats Electronics last year.

Dr Dre is probably the luckiest dude in all of music.
for real. he dont even write lyrics or make his own beats
Dre is a hustler. I ain hatin on Dre but his headphones sound bad. I ain heard 1 pair which have that hip hop sound to them. Just my opinion!
Still a good producer at times!
He’s trying to climb to a billion as fast as possible. I hope he gets there cause I like Dre. There are only around 7 black billionaires in the world. But that number is gonna get higher over the next several years because of Hip Hop.
F***ck you lying , 7??? theres more than that in africa alone.
There’s a reason why Hip-Hop haven’t produced ANY billionaires yet, besides Dre only Jay-Z is the only one who made a real fortune from the genre. Not to mention the industry is shrinking for years, nobody’s eating the same was as they were a few years ago. Just from the music itself nobody will reach the billion.
So what.
He is escaping LA because of suge.. thats what the streets is talkin here
Doesn’t make sense, BOTH homes are in L.A. not that far from each other!
Suge can’t intimidate anyone, he’s gonna sit down for at least 10-20 years!
Dre has enough money to make Suge disappear ten times.
