M. C. Hammer's House in Tracy, CA (Google Maps)

In 1997 he was forced to sell his dream house in the hills of Fremont for $5.3 million, then moved into this property. A humble downgrade from his multi million dollar dream home, Hammer purchased the 2,653 sq ft home in 1995 for $395K as he reorganized his finances in the wake of his bankruptcy. Though the property has appreciated in value. It's a long way from his old mansion with the Lamborghini in the driveway but it's still a beautiful property.

Hammer is reportedly still in debt to the IRS, recently making the news again as the agency seeks to collect. Unrelenting, the IRS are still after him for a nearly $800,000 dept from back taxes owed between 1996 to 1997.

MC Hammer, with a current estimated net worth of $1.5 million, was at the height of his career a multi-millionaire. He has since lost most of his wealth when he filed for bankruptcy in 1996. At that time, he is said to have had more than $10 million in debts, and was making massive purchases, even spending nearly $500,000 a month for his entourage.

Hammer's peak was 1991 when he earned $33 million. Despite these massive earnings, Hammer because of his spending and debts was forced to file for bankruptcy in 1996. Known for extravagant tastes, he bought luxury sports cars, airplanes, a record company and a 12 acre home in Fremont, California. He spent $30 million building the home from scratch in the hills above the neighborhood he grew up in, and eventually sold it at a loss for well below the asking price. The 40,000 square foot mansion featured a bowling alley, Italian marble floors, two swimming pools, multiple tennis courts, recording studio, a 17 car garage and a baseball diamond.

The former Rap superstar MC Hammer, lives in this home. Moved here in the nineties after losing his fortune, he now lives in this $789K home in California's Central Valley.
