Several years later, Ross’s mother and sister were helping him look for property in the Miami Beach area when they saw a stunning resort-style estate in Southwest Ranches, Florida, up for sale. In the Forbes interview, the rapper explained that his mother knew his taste very well, and so it was an easy yes as soon as she sent over the link. He saw the property shortly thereafter and promptly told his agent, “This is my house.” Ross paid $3.5 million in cash for the 2.3-acre property, which turned out to be owned by Ross’s friend, NBA All-Star Amar’e Stoudemire (the athlete had owned the single-story residence for about a decade at that point). The pad measures 8,600 square feet and features high ceilings throughout—necessary, given Stoudemire’s six-foot-ten stature—with six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, two home offices, an indoor theater, a gym, and a pool with a waterfall. Ross still owns this home.

In early 2023, Ross revealed that he’d purchased real estate in Houston with an Instagram post signed “Rodeo Rick,” showing off several snapshots from the outside of his new home. The rapper paid $3.5 million for the property, which he shared a bit of in a video tour of the home. “While others was buying Dogecoin and all that, man, I was buying real estate,” he says in the video, panning to an incredible pool, adding, “To be honest, I don’t know how deep this pool go.” In the clip, Ross also shows off the front gate, emblazoned with his initials RR (“Rep your brand,” he says), before showing off all the palm trees in his yard, which he claims he brought over from Miami. “This house go all the way around, man,” he says as he walks around the front of the property. “This s–t huge.” Exact details of the home are not readily available, but glimpses from Ross’s video tour reveal pristine white walls and bespoke artwork.
Just about a week after Ross shared his Houston acquisition with fans, news broke that he’d paid $4.2 million cash to fellow rapper and friend Meek Mill for his Atlanta-area estate. Mill had reportedly been trying to offload the mansion for nearly two years through a realtor before finally getting fed up and posting about the eight-bedroom, nine-and-a-half-bathroom residence himself. (He shared an aerial video of the property that was later taken down.) Ross snapped up the unfurnished three-story property, with its tennis court, media room, two-car garage, sauna, and pool; he still owns this place.
