A Question About Paisley Park

Hi. A few days ago, my best friend (who is more of a beginner Prince enthusiast than me) were looking around this site when I showed her this picture of Paisley Park.

Paisley Park from the road - showing 'The Egg' during the recladding of the...

My friend was completely taken aback by the photo and for about an hour, she was asking me, "Does Prince really own all that?" "Is that really his?" and "How did he buy it?"
(I hadn't seen her that starstruck since was saw an aerial view of Michael Jackson's Neverland Valley Ranch.)

And I couldn't really answer her. What is Paisley Park currently worth and what did Prince pay when had it built.

Thanks. lol

I don't know what it's worth or what he paid to build it...but his 2006 property tax bill was around $180,000. If you found out the mill rate (the tax rate per $1000 of assessed value) for Carver County, MN, the city of Chanhassen, and the local school district, you could figure out what the most recent assessed value of Paisley Park is.
