With all the money the rich and the famous have, we are curious about how they spend it. Some spend it on gadgets, cars, and jewelry, while others like to invest smartly in real estate.

CEOs and celebrities spend millions and millions of dollars to stay in lavish mansions or modern apartments equipped with state-of-the-art amenities that some of us can only dream of.

Some even go a step further and spend extra coin just to make the place exclusive to their taste. They hire interior designers and artists to customize and furnish the property to their liking, which brings up the cost of the finished project to an insane amount. So, for 2019, here are the most lucrative real estate deals celebrities made:
