Brooklyn Beckham has carved out his own path, quietly building a property empire amid an ongoing feud with his parents David and Victoria.
While the family rift has dominated headlines in recent days, it has also thrown fresh light on Brooklyn’s shift toward financial independence, through a series of property moves across Los Angeles.

The renewed focus on Brooklyn’s independence comes after he published a lengthy Instagram statement outlining his decision to step away from his family, saying he no longer wanted a life shaped by “image, press or manipulation” and that he was prioritising privacy, peace and happiness with his wife and future family.

David and Victoria Beckham have not publicly responded to the claims.
Brooklyn’s property journey has included an early seven-figure misstep, followed by a far more tightly held prestige purchase in one of Beverly Hills’ most exclusive areas.

Brooklyn and wife Nicola Peltz made their first major property splash in 2021, buying a sprawling Beverly Hills home just months before tying the knot.
The couple paid US$10.5m (about A$16.1m) for the property, pitching it as their first marital base in Los Angeles.
But the decision quickly unravelled.
Less than a year later, the home was put back on the market and eventually sold in August 2022 for US$9.25m (about A$14.1m).

The sale locked in a loss of roughly US$1.25m, or close to A$1.9m, before transaction costs.
Nicola later described the purchase as a “silly” mistake, saying the couple had underestimated how often they would need to be in Los Angeles for work.
The Beverly Hills luxury condo base

After the mansion sale, the pair shifted into a far more restrained, but still ultra-luxurious, living arrangement.
They are understood to be based in an 11th-floor condo near Beverly Hills that was purchased in 2012 by Nicola’s mother, former model Claudia Heffner Peltz.
The apartment was bought for US$3.8m (about A$5.8m) and features three bedrooms and five bathrooms in a high-rise building just minutes from central Beverly Hills.
Despite its luxury credentials, Brooklyn and Nicola have publicly described the home as intentionally low-key, saying they prefer quiet nights in and privacy over the megamansion lifestyle often associated with celebrity heirs.

Trousdale Estates purchase marks reset

Brooklyn’s biggest property statement came late last year, when he and Nicola quietly secured a high-end home in one of Los Angeles’ most exclusive areas.
The couple paid about US$16m (roughly A$24.4m) for a mansion in Trousdale Estates, an ultra-prestige pocket of Beverly Hills favoured by A-list celebrities and business heavyweights.
The deal was completed through a private company structure, a common move among high-profile buyers seeking discretion.
The property had previously been marketed closer to US$19m, suggesting the pair secured the home below peak expectations, a marked contrast to their earlier misstep.
For observers, the purchase signalled a more calculated approach to property and a clear intention to establish long-term roots away from family scrutiny.
Peltz Florida estate
Nicola Peltz Beckham’s family Palm Beach estate, worth about A$116m, anchors the broader real estate world the couple move within.
While not owned by Brooklyn directly, the vast property holdings of Nicola’s billionaire father, Nelson Peltz, form part of the broader real estate plays the couple move within.
The Peltz family’s Palm Beach estate, where Brooklyn and Nicola married in 2022, is estimated to be worth about US$76m, or roughly A$116m, and offers beachfront access, sprawling grounds and resort-style amenities.
David and Victoria Beckham are yet to respond publicly as Brooklyn’s statement and US property moves place the family under renewed scrutiny.
Brooklyn’s growing real estate footprint has taken on fresh significance amid his public rupture with the Beckham family, with property emerging as the clearest expression of his financial and personal independence.
