Billionaire Elon Musk is said to own a house worth $7 million in Austin, Texas.

Business Insider has just revealed that Elon Musk quietly bought a house in Austin, Texas, even though the billionaire announced in 2020 that he did not own any houses and was selling many other properties. to focus on long-term goals.

According to court documents in the custody dispute between billionaire Musk and his ex-girlfriend Grimes seen by BI, the Tesla boss said that he bought a house in February 2022 and still lives there.

Grimes and their children also lived here from April to August last year.

The filing says Musk bought the house after the address of the house he rented was leaked, making it, Musk said, “no longer private and safe for my family.”

According to BI, Musk hid the address of the new house he bought. All information from the records is that the American billionaire bought it in February 2022 and lived there until December.

Although Musk has not made his address public, there are some indications that the billionaire may be living at his Texas home.

A neighbor told BI earlier this year that the house has 24-hour security and that Tesla cars are often seen around the property.

The house is said to not be as luxurious as Musk’s previous properties. At one time, the billionaire owned a real estate portfolio worth an estimated $100 million. Tax records show that Musk’s home in Austin is valued at nearly $7 million. According to Zillow, the nearly 7,000-square-foot house was built in 2017.

In June 2021, Elon Musk said he rented a house for $50,000 to live in. Less than a year later, in April 2022, Musk again said that he did not own a house and stayed in spare rooms in friends’ houses or at the offices of X and Tesla.
