Rick Ross buys Meek Mill’s Atlanta mansion for $4.2 million cash
The Georgia mansion is changing ownership from one Atlanta rapper to another
Atlanta rapper Rick Ross has purchased fellow local hip-hop artist Meek Mill’s Atlanta mansion, WSB-TV reported. The Promise Land owner picked up the luxury home for $4.2 million in cash, real estate agent Alisha Gillooly said in a press release.
The Atlanta mansion features eight bedrooms, nine full bathrooms and one half bathroom. Mill took to social media last month in an attempt to accelerate the selling process and get the home off the market, a mansion in which the rapper said he never moved into.
The home’s luxurious amenities include a movie theater, sauna, outdoor pool, jacuzzi, tennis court, playground and two garages.
Taking to Twitter, Meek Mill commented on the sale of the mansion Monday.
“I sold that house that quick,” he said. “It was for sale for like two years… I knew it would soon as I posted too!”
While Ross has not come forward with a social media statement on his newly purchased Atlanta mansion, the rapper recently made headlines when his buffalo escaped from his Fayette County estate the Promise Land.
Sprawling across about 40,000 square feet, his new mansion features such upscale touches as six bathrooms, a summer kitchen and a heated swimming pool.
The ultra-luxe waterfront property comes with ocean access in the form of a simple wooden harbor situated behind the backyard.
Upon moving into the mansion, Rick will also be able to indulge in the delights of such amenities as an entertainment room.
The Money In The Grave rapper’s purchase of the estate, which hit the market in May, will reportedly be closing within weeks.
His latest acquisition comes about two years after he bought NBA alum Amar’e Stoudemire’s Miami digs for $3.5 million, per Architectural Digest.
Months after buying Amare’s house, Rick appeared on the REVOLT show Assets Over Liabilities and revealed that ‘I still haven’t slept in that b**** once.’
He reasoned: ‘But guess what? The value is I could sell that same house for possibly maybe $3 million more than I purchased it for.’
A few months ago Rick Ross also paid $4.2 million to take Meek Mill’s Atlanta mansion off his hands, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

When Rick first started making real money as a rapper, he snaffled up a million-dollar house in Atlanta just for the pleasure of driving by it.
‘Homes was something I was always fascinated about, so me and my homies started coming up to Atlanta,’ Rick recalled in a 2021 interview. ‘We used to ride by here all the time, stop, pull over and just be like: “God damn.”‘
He dished: ‘After I got my deal and my situation, I bought a million-dollar home maybe two minutes from here that I still own that’s right around the corner, just so I can ride by it every day while I’m in Atlanta, and that’s what the play was.’
Rick’s showpiece property is an eye-watering 109-room mansion in Georgia that he bought from Evander Holyfield and dubbed The Promise Land.
The animals were spotted in the Northbridge community, where Fayette sheriff’s office and marshal’s office worked together to return the buffalo to Ross’ 87-acre ranch.
“While it is legal to own livestock (cattle, sheep, horses, goats, etc.) in Fayette County, the owner is responsible for properly restraining the animals,” the sheriff’s office said in a social media post. “If the owner is shown to be negligent, they could be charged.”
Taking to Instagram shortly after, Ross thanked everyone who helped get his buffalo back home.
“You may deal with puppies, dogs, I deal with cattle,” Ross said. “I always return any stray pets, so make sure y’all keep collars on y’all’s pets.”
