Elvis Presley | $937,000 |Memphis, Tennessee

Elvis Presley is undoubtedly one of the most iconic musicians in history. He was also one of the wealthiest artists by the time his career peaked, and it was pretty easy for him to acquire any property that he wants. One of Presley’s properties was a beautiful estate in Memphis, Tennessee. He bought the home back in 1957 when he was only 22 years old for a cool $102,500. In case you’re wondering, $102,500 is now equivalent to $937,000 in today’s money.

It’s safe to assume that Presley had no idea that this investment would turn into the most famous home in America. His Memphis home is now a National Historic Landmark, and it sits on a massive 14-acre land, boasting several rooms, five staircases, and a bunch of Elvis Presley memorabilia. Besides the White House, this iconic Memphis property is the most-visited home in the United States.
