- The world-famous pop star has parted ways with her lavish mansion, in an off-market deal to the tune of a whopping $8.3 million. The transaction, however, appears to have struck a sour note with its steep drop from 2021’s purchase price of $8.9 million. Talk about pop goes the property bubble!
- Music sensation and giant sunglasses aficionado Bad Bunny is the lucky recipient of the opulent abode. Looks like our Bad Bunny isn’t just a fan of great beats, but he knows how to beat the property market as well.
- The secluded mansion promises privacy and the perfect inspiration for his next big chart-topper, having known to shelter a pop diva once. As the saying goes, “There’s no business like show-business… except maybe real estate.”
- The estate features lavish amenities that would have anyone hopping mad with envy. From that pool that looks straight out of a music video to a recording studio that has produced mega-hits – the mansion has it all. Hard to believe that between crafting multimillion-dollar hits, the popstar would have any time to enjoy the cracking tennis court or the mini-theatre though.
- And just a sweet little icing on the deal – the mansion was sold at a loss! Makes us wonder whether the pop-star-turned-real-estate-mogul just wasn’t really hitting the (property) high notes or whether Bad Bunny got some really good carrot for his money. Either way, this deal strikes a major chord in the orchestra of real-estate shenanigans!

And there you have it, folks. They say that ‘the house always wins’, but in this case, it seems like Bad Bunny was the one hitting the jackpot while the pop star was left crooning a sour tune. Maybe she should stick to selling chart-topping tracks rather than plush pads. On the flip side, Bad Bunny has added a shiny jewel to his warren, showing that not only can he lay down some sick beats, but also some cool real-estate deals. It’s a funny world, this showbiz lifestate – one minute you’re on top of a pop empire, the next you’re offloading your mansion on the cheap while a Reggaeton artist laughs all the way to the bank. This tale truly is a sold-out concert of high-stakes real estate gamble set to the beat of a popstar’s lament. So, next time you’re feeling blue about a bad deal, just remember – at least you’re not wincing over an $8.3 million dollar ‘loss’! Now that’s what I call hitting a low note!
