However, in 2019, he made headlines in the real estate world by purchasing a remarkable property in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn. The reported price tag for this acquisition was $2.4 million, securing him a four-bedroom home with a rich history dating back to 1899. The residence is noted for preserving some original features from that bygone era, such as marble mantles and a mahogany staircase. Additionally, the townhouse includes a garden apartment on the ground level.
