Rick Ross has taken to social media to show off his $35-million mansion lot on the exclusive Star Island in Miami, USA.
The rap mogul is doing $20 million in renovations, saying: “I have easily 50 million in it and it’s well worth it.”
But, the titan of the music industry is looking for a specific neighbor for his dream home, shouting out to his ‘rich friends’.

“I know you’ve got somebody who would love to stay right here next to Ricky Rosé,” he shared on his @richforever Instagram account.
He specifically asked Drake to buy the empty lot next door saying: “They’re only asking 37 million, which ain’t much.
“I would love to wake up in the morning to hear: ‘Everybody get your roll on’,” he added.
We already know that Ross has a Georgia mansion that’s like a palace.
As for his own waterfront estate, he said: “I don’t know anybody else who’d buy a $35 million crib, tear it down, and do it the way they want it: customized.”
Real name, William Leonard Roberts II, Ross bought the lot to do a gut renovation, transforming the property into a megamansion worth $100 million in the summer of 2023.
It will rival the opulent homes of his Miami neighbors, including billionaires like Jeff Bezos, who has an extensive $600 million property portfolio.
Another resident, hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin, previously held the record for the world’s most expensive property.
This has since been surpassed by ‘Gordon Pointe’ Estate, a beachfront property worth an estimated $295 million, which is located on a peninsula off the coast of Florida in the Gulf of Mexico.
Ross plans to add 4,000 square feet to the 12,400-square-foot luxe property’s footprint, located on 37 Star Island Drive.
“We are excited to be expanding the home towards the ocean and we are planning a Japanese rare Koi fish pond, the walls with maybe a Basquiat painting,” Ross told the New York Post.
Celebrity and billionaire homebuilder, Manny Angelo Varas, is helping the rap mogul to bring his vision to life – we can’t wait for the inevitable tour.
