An Atlanta estate once owned by media mogul Tyler Perry has sold for a record-setting $15 million. The sale of 4110 Paces Ferry Road is noteworthy as the first and second most expensive residential home sale in Atlanta, according to listing agent Chase Mizell of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty.
Perry bought the French Provincial mansion in 2007 for $9 million and invested millions into improving it, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution. When Perry sold the home in April 2016 for $17.5 million, with Mizell brokering the transaction, it was the highest sale on record for the Atlanta area.
In 2011, Forbes listed Perry as the highest-paid man in entertainment, earning $130 million between May 2010 and May 2011. The creator of the Madea film franchise is a multitalented screenwriter, director, playwright and actor.
