This was the year Mahomes began his professional career, so it makes sense that it would also be the year he bought his first piece of real estate. The quarterback’s starter home was a 1,800-square-foot penthouse in a building that was conveniently close to his workplace, the Arrowhead Stadium, in downtown Kansas City. Mahomes got a bargain on the two-bedroom, three-bathroom pad, as he only paid $350,000 for the unit, which was originally priced at $485,000. A contemporary space, the residence boasts hardwood floors and recessed lighting throughout. There is a wood-burning fireplace in the living room and in the main bedroom, and Mahomes’s unit is the only one to sport three outdoor terraces, including a roof deck. Mahomes listed the condo for sale in 2019 but could not find a buyer, so he withdrew it from the market. In early September of this year, the two-time Super Bowl MVP put the penthouse back on the market for $550,000.

2018

Less than two years into his professional career and right before he led the Kansas City Chiefs to their first Super Bowl appearance in 50 years—and his first Super Bowl win—Mahomes upgraded his home to a $1.8 million mansion located 20 minutes from Arrowhead Stadium by car. Set on 1.4 acres of land in a Kansas City suburb, the 4,300-square-foot three-bedroom, four-bathroom abode has all the trappings of a luxury home, and then some. Mahomes and his then girlfriend (now wife) renovated the 1953 build, which currently has an open floor plan with a modern eat-in kitchen that flows into a family room featuring a fireplace. There’s also a wet bar, a 500-bottle wine room, office space, a sun porch, patio, a pool with a spa, a rose garden, an expansive lawn, and even a miniature putting green. The manse also comes with an unusually large 1,250-square-foot main bedroom. There’s a fireplace in it, but the real highlight is the shoe room. “That has been something that I’ve wanted for the last six, seven years at least,” Mahomes told Bleacher Report in a video unveiling of the room. At the time, Mahomes (who has a menswear collection with Adidas) owned 180 pairs of shoes, so the couple transformed a section of the massive room into a boutique-style closet just for the sneakerhead’s footwear and sunglasses. The couple listed the property for $2.9 million this past summer.
