Russell Wilson and his wife Ciara are set to receive $31 million from the impending sale of their lakefront Washington estate. The couple originally purchased the 11,000-square-foot mansion located in Bellevue, about 10 miles from Seattle, for $6.7 million in 2015. They also acquired a neighboring lot with a carport for the same price in 2019. The estate was listed for $36 million in 2022, but the couple agreed to a sale at $21.25 million, with the total payout including the previously sold lot reaching $31 million.
The sale of their Bellevue mansion comes as Wilson was traded from the Seattle Seahawks to the Denver Broncos, where he signed a one-year contract worth $1.2 million. The couple was also in the process of selling their $25 million Denver mansion after Wilson was cut by the Broncos in March. They purchased the Denver property in April 2022, and it became the most expensive home ever sold in the Denver area. Wilson and Ciara began dating in 2015 and got married in July of the following year. They have three children together, daughters Sienna and Amora, and son Win. Ciara also has a 9-year-old son from a previous relationship with rapper Future.
Once the sale of their Bellevue estate is finalized, Wilson will make a $15 million profit from the transaction. The price of the mansion was reduced twice, with the final listing price being $24.9 million before the agreement was reached. The sale is expected to close in May, according to sources close to the deal. Despite the fluctuations in the housing market and Wilson’s playing career, the couple has managed to secure a substantial return on their real estate investments.
In addition to their real estate dealings, Wilson and Ciara have been active in the entertainment and business industries. The singer and the NFL quarterback have been involved in various philanthropic efforts and have attended events such as the ESPY Awards together. They have also been proactive in selling their properties, accepting offers and giving tours to potential buyers. As they navigate the complexities of professional sports and celebrity life, the couple continues to expand their wealth and influence in various fields.
The financial success of Wilson and Ciara’s real estate ventures showcases their savvy investment decisions and business acumen. With multiple properties in various locations, the couple has diversified their assets and capitalized on market trends to maximize their profits. While Wilson focuses on his football career, Ciara continues to pursue her music and business endeavors, further solidifying their status as a power couple in the world of sports and entertainment. As they embark on new ventures and opportunities, Wilson and Ciara’s financial portfolio continues to grow, ensuring a secure future for themselves and their family.
