The massive property was designed by the same person responsible for Kanye West’s minimalist mansion in the same neighborhood, Tadao Ando.

In 2017, the couple purchased this 12,000-square-foot home in the Hamptons that’s near the Georgica Pond. When the couple is not busy going on a worldwide tour, this is a good place they can relax.

The couple paid $26 million for this 17-acre meadow, which feels like light work compared to their Malibu mansion.

After a fire broke out in the home in what was reportedly an arson attempt, the couple put the mansion up for sale for $3.5 million, and then later increased it to $4.45 million.

In 2014, the couple rented this Los Angeles property in the Hombly Hills neighborhood for $150,000 a month. Unfortunately, Jay and Bey had to pack their things after it was sold in 2015.

Although Hov and Bey never bought this home, they spent a pretty penny renting. In 2012, the couple rented the vacation home for $400,000 a month. The 31,000-square-foot property has 12 bedrooms, a tennis court, a rock climbing wall, and even a half-pipe for skateboarding.
