8 Avec Chateau Home
Perry owns several homes in Georgia, one of which is this 16,000 square foot mansion in Fairburn. It has a 4,000 square foot master suite and costs nearly $4 million. The property has two prayer gardens, tennis courts, and an amphitheater. The large double doors leading into the front foyer are guarded by a life-sized knight in shining armor, and the front driveway winds around a large fountain, greenery, and tall gates for privacy. As one of his first large purchases, Perry has said he wanted people to see what God had done in his life, skyrocketing to fame from the depths of poverty.

The Bentley GT Sports Coupe is one of the most luxurious cars in Perry's collection, with white leather seat covers and 20-inch wheels, and sports exhaust. The car cost nearly $300,000 when including all the additional features.
He owns a Range Rover, a sleek black, four-wheel-drive vehicle, costing approximately $120,000, as well as a Cadillac Escalade for an additional $120,000 and a $400,000 Rolls-Royce Wraith with cutting-edge technology according to Genius Celebs.
6 Los Angeles Mansion
The four-bedroom, six-bathroom mansion near the Hollywood Hills costs $13.5 million and has Perry rubbing elbows with famous directors, A-list actors, and producers. The house comes with a three-car garage, billiards room, home fitness center, wine cellar, and disco room, according to Joys Toyz. When friends come to visit, they can park in the 30-car motor court located on the property for the evening.
5 Dean Gardens Mansion
Another property in Georgia, this time, located north of Atlanta and directly adjacent to the Chattahoochee River, cost Perry just over $7 million – a steal compared to the $40 million list price. Over 32,000 square feet sit on top of the 58-acre property. The mansion boasts 15 bedrooms, with bathrooms featuring 24K gold. Several themed suites, including Moroccan, Egyptian, Oriental, and French bedrooms, allow for Perry's worldwide collection. Outside, the property features an 18-hole golf course, amphitheater, and wedding chapel. A guest house, caretaker's house, and greenkeeper's house give adequate space for the employees it takes to run the entire home for $1.5 million per year.
4 White Bay Cay
Perry bought two islands in 2009 for his 40th birthday, the White Bay Cay and The Exuma Cays in the Bahamas. The islands go for $20 to $30 million dollars, and Perry has built a 14,000 square foot mansion on White Bay Cay for those vacation get-aways with the family. If Perry hopes to gather with some friends, other local islands are owned by Johnny Depp, David Copperfield, Tim McGraw, and Faith Hill.
3 Tyler Perry Studios
He's celebrating 15 years at the 330-acre Atlanta-based studios, home to more than seven television shows for Viacom CBS. What was once an old Army Base now holds 12 production studios. The property cost Perry $30 million before he spent an additional $250 million on renovations and upgrades. The studio contains several permanent sets, including the White House, a luxury hotel, a trailer park, and a 16,000 square foot mansion. Other studios, like Netflix and Amazon, have come to Atlanta just to use the premium facility and have spent more than $100 million annually in rental fees.
2 Gulfstream III Private Jet
The private jet has made headlines, as Perry has used it frequently for charity work. While he purchased the plane for $125 million, he's spent an additional $50 million on upgrades such as a screening room, living room, kitchen, and VIP suite. When you're jet-setting with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, traveling to places like Fiji and Portofino, Italy, it's nice to have your own ride.
1 Atlanta Mansion
Yet another home Perry has purchased in the Atlanta area cost approximately $25 million. The 35,000 square foot home includes 17 acres, tennis courts, a fully equipped gym, spa, theater, and underground ballroom.
The real estate investor recently sold this mansion to comedian and author Steve Harvey. Rumors state Perry has been working on a new, 35,000 square foot mansion for the past three years in order to move closer to the Tyler Perry Studio property.
