Investing in real estate is a popular form of wealth accumulation. As Investopedia explains, money through real estate is primarily earned through what is called appreciation, which is (put simply) a monetary increase over time. In real estate terms, this is when someone sells a property for more than they initially bought it for. During Berry’s life, the musician had made numerous real estate investments, which helped push his wealth beyond normal means. 

As Billboard reports, Berry had invested a significant amount of money in the form of real estate properties. One such property was Berry Park, which was a huge 30-acre spot of land located in Wentzville, Missouri. As the Riverfront Times says, his luxurious mansion was where he mostly kept himself until his dying days. Another lavish home owned by the rock and roll king was located in Ladue, Missouri.
