January 04, 2009. MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind that actor/director Tyler Perry is selling his $6 million Atlanta mansion for a little over $3 million. Below are photos of Tyler’s home – which is on 11 acres of prime Atlanta real estate.

Now we ain’t trying to start no rumors. But why would a man as wealthy as Tyler be selling his home for a near 50% loss in this market. We’re just saying ….

    Maybe he spread himself too thin opening that TV studio. Lots of overhead involved in that. You don't sell your dream home just to sell it. Common sense people.

    You guys are too much. It is common knowledge that real estate has been hit badly by the economic crisis. All property values have gone down, it says nothing about money troubles etc.

    Always trying to suggest people are broke or gay.

    I guess nobody at MTO owns real estate.

    Enough already

    Boy i swear MTO wouldnt know the truth if someone told it to them directly.
    FIRST of all i live in atlanta, and i will be the first to tell you this isnt even TYLERS mansion, this is a home he had in CALI.
    Secondly he is KNOw where near being broke, this man just opened a multi-million dollar studio in atlanta that can I have seen personally.
    Third of all he just had a multi-million dollar home built from the ground up in atlanta , which is probably the reason why "due to the economy " he is selling at 3 million dollars.
    NOW lets look at common sence here.. Would you rather have a 6 million dollar home, just sitting there, paying for it and not using it, or would you rather down the price (which i doubt its half), and try to sell it...DO the math.

    That is probably the real value of that house and not the inflated price which the market asked a few years ago when he bought it. But you never know. Sometimes where there is smoke there could be fire.

    This goes to show u that MTO doesn't now much about the recession. Real Estate sucks right now. People can't sell their houses for shyt but they keep building all these new houses and condos every where, f_cking the economy up even more. He need to keep that house and rent it out, sit on that paper for a little longer.

    @chitownbaby
    Yes, that show is not funny at all and he got the nerve to be coming out with another one based on that wack azz movie Meet The Browns. That was his wackest movie to date. I like all the other ones though, they actually had some meaning.

I would've understood, no one in their right mind would believe this story and so what if he is taking a loss so did Fiddy when he sold the house he purchaesed from Mike Tyson, no one is above the mortgage crisis that has taken over America MTO, no one! Not even Donald Trump himself can sale a house worth it's value right now.

    If MTO had a clue, they'd know the real estate market is in the toilet right now, no one is getting full value for their houses. Perry probably just wants to unload the place and is willing to take a loss just to get it off his hands.

    blackchinadoll is so accurate in her statements.MTO you all need to get cold ,hard facts before y'all start reporting untrue garbage.y'all ALWAYS lying on somebody.tyler perry could have any good number of reasons for selling his home at that price-but money problems is not one of them.i bet no one at MTO could afford that mansion.geez,let a hard-working black man be.

    MTO says: Now we ain’t trying to start no rumors. But why would a man as wealthy as Tyler be selling his home for a near 50% loss in this market. We’re just saying ….

    Rivercousin says: Because you're idiots. Anyone who has a brain knows that property is assessed at the current market value. The fact that he's selling it at a 50% loss only speaks of the current value based on the latest assessment and has nothing to do with him having money or not having money. It's just what the property is worth today so a smart man would sell if he doesn't forsee a change in the market.

    Get an education MTO, a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

    Could be selling it for a ton of reasons.

    1. Relocating to bigger home
    2. Downsizing his life.
    3. Doesn't like the neighborhood.
    4. Wants to have more to give to charity
    5. Wants to lower property taxes.
    6. No longer likes this home.

    It could be a ton of reasons outside of financial trouble.

    For one reason - it goes without saying that if the market today will not bare the cost of what he paid for it - then he will suffer a loss. That's just simple arithmetic, profit and loss, sales and real estate. It' unfortunate, but that's the recession that we are in.

    MTO would have us to believe that errrrybody is going broke - Fantasia, Jay Z.....who else MTO?

    He is hardly broke! The man is empowered by the wisdom of God in his financial dealings- and I am sure that he has his bases covered. A person who lived in a car surely knows what povery and lack is like - he hardly wants to return to that life ever again.

    Also, he has a whole FILM STUDIO....it takes masterminds to pull real estate like that together and not consume all of your own money.

    Believe me - Tyler Perry is far from broke.

    manymen04
    i agree with skyneska. MTO wants us to believe that anyone who is selling their home is about to be broke and that's not the case. Tyler Perry probably is having to sell his house for way less because there's no one out there with $6 million to buy it. HELLO!! Obviously he's living somewhere else now. The "lost" profit is clearly not what's important to him. Get it together MTO

    Some of us aren't feeling the stinging impact of the economic downturn just yet. I am 1 of these people. On that note, Tyler Perry is probably just unleashing some property (I believe that he has 6 or 7 fabulous properties, with 3 in Georgia) & the real-estate market is ice-cold right now!

    Tyler previously stated in an interview that since he had his house in a movie (diary of a mad black woman) people found out where he lived and there were women hanging around his house and some were even trying to break in. So he had to move. Like others have stated, the economy is bad and now most real estate is being sold for a loss. Get it straight MTO.

    Maybe because he can afford to sell it that cheap. This man gives a lot of money to the black cummunity and maybe he is not looking for a profit. Hell-to-the-naw this man ain't nowhere near broke. He's smart he knows that in this market he has to practicly give the darn house away. Plus he's friends with Oprha so she got his back come what may. Stop with this MTO cause its not going nowhere.

    Come on MTO, this is hardly the case with Tyler. Everyone knows the house is selling perhaps for that price because of the current state of the economy. Has nothing to do with his finances. Hell if the banks were giving out loans like that half of the staff at MTO would be tring to cop that... SMDH at MTO

I don't believe he's going broke, I just think he found something that fits him better... What I don't get is why he needed all that space and its just him! What he need to do is go slap the $hit out of that boy Micheal from Jena 6 for not taking him up on his offer and going to college...

    Tyler Perry is FAR from any money issues. This is the home he's selling because fans were climbing fences and everything just to see it. He said he became unhappy living there.

    He's probably taking a loss due to the economy. Mansions in CA have been lowered and lowered until some of them you can buy for a steal.

    Luther Vandross lived lavishly too and never had any money scandals. If you have it to spend and want to treat yourself, do so. Especially for a tax shelter.

    MTO, get a grip!

    That is the same mansion that was seen in Diary of a Mad Black Woman. Shortly after the film, he put that mansion on the market because fans kept making surprise visits. It had been sitting for probably a couple of years. Then, in case you've been living under a rock, the market got bad. And, the last time that I checked, even before the bad economy, not many folks could afford a $6 million mansion!!! He just found a buyer. He designed the mansion and could eat a $3 million loss. He was ready to get it off his hands. Don't get it twisted. Tyler is living quite comfortably. People love to hate on him and Oprah. Black folks always want someone to look up to, but then when we have someone who does well, we try to bring them down. Or, we secretly hope for their demise. God did NOT bring them this far to leave them.

    Tyler is NOT broke!!! That's his old house that has been on the market for 2 yrs in South Fulton. Even if sells it for 3 mil he'll still make a profit because it only cost him about 1.5/2 mil to build it.

    You Tyler Perry stans are completely missing the point!! YES the real estate market in bad. YES we are in the midst of a credit crisis. SO.. if he didn't need the liquidity, why would he sell it now? Why not wait the downturn out?
     

    StBernard
    I don't think it's money trouble, but why keep a house that you're never in? Now tha would be a waste of money!!!

    Now how ya'll going to say he shouldn't have got the house in the 1st place? That man do what he want with his damn money, no body in here wrote any of the man's plays or movies so stop hatin!

    But on the real, THAT'S A BAD ASS HOUSE!

    My future baby daddy is far from broke!!

    If that is the same mansion that was used in the movie, “Diary of a Mad Black Woman” it has been on the market for years. As a matter of fact, it has been on the Market since that movie came out and that has been over 3 years. Tyler has not lived there since then. Perhaps it is better for Tyler financially to just let it go for $3 Million as opposed to holding out for the $6 million. The poor economy is hitting everyone hard. It isn’t economical for him to pay taxes and such on a home he isn’t living in.

    Sorry but I have to correct you on another accord. Being that I knew Tyler Perry's new mansion located just off the Chattahoochie River was still under construction. Further research took me to an aerial view on his home dated 10/17/2008. From that pic you can definitely see that his house was not completed then and would be impossible to finish in this short time.....It is 36,000 sqft you know!

    Doesn't make any sense ... unless he has a APR mortgage and realize it would be better to sell than pay the ridiculous interest.

    i think he has had some trouble with a man claiming ownership to the property for years now ...he might just want to cut his loses. Also isn'nt his new studio in LA ?

    While, I understand almost everyone is selling their property at a loss, why would you sell a property for less than you paid for it, if money is not an issue presently. 50 Cent has shaved like 5 million of the sales price of his Connecticut mansion. However, he bought it from Mike Tyson for like 5 million and I think it's currently listed for like 16-18 million, so he'll still see a healthy profit. Whereas, Tyler paid more than 3 million for his house. If I was worth 100 million, which has been reported as Tyler's net worth, I would just hold the property until the market starts to reverse itself. At least hold it, until you can break even. I'm sure Tyler has money, maybe he just wants to unload the property, be done with it and will claim the loss on his tax returns.

    Maybe Madea had major chips invested with Bernie Madoff.

    Maybe he's tired of staying in that big mutha fucc'er all by himself. I love big houses but I wouldn't want a house that I couldn't tell if anyone else is up in there.

    Tyler Perry does not have money trouble. Anybody who owns real estate is getting hit. Has nothing to do with your personal money. Maybe he wants to sell it to minimize the decrease in value before it goes down even more. The man made something like $125 million last year. Not to mention, a new spin-off show on TBS for a full season of 13 episodes. Cha-ching. C'mon MTO.

    i live in the atl and i see this crib at least once a week..... thats the old crib..... the new one is off the chain.... get the info valid and stop the hate.... tyler is one of the only black progress makers that will give anyone a chance to come up..... he finds talent in places that others would not be seen at..... i've seen him hire a band by just going out to dinner at a jazz spot... i know singers, actors and actresses that were discovered at local jam sessions..... he's a good brother to meet in the right places

    Are ya'll serious. He has been trying to sell this house for a minute this was the house they use in diary of a mad black woman. He bought some land and built another big house on it. This was some land that this white man kept trying to sued him for. But this is old news he has been trying to sell this house for a minute so the man is not broke
