Akon's Georgia home continues to be a burden for him. In January of 2008, Akon bought a home in Alpharetta, Georgia for a price of $1,650,000. The home was constructed in 1990. It is set on a 4.6 acreage of lush land. It features six bedrooms. It also contains eight full bathrooms and two-half bathrooms. The property also features a swimming pool and a spa. According to a past article by celebritydetective.com, "The home also includes a six-car garage, a bar, and game room." It also features seven fireplaces. One fireplace is located in the breakfast area and the other one is in the master bedroom. The home also boasts of two staircases, and an elevator that gives direct access to the all floor levels.
Despite the beauty of the home and the elegance, the Georgia home of Akon is filled with controversy. According to a recent report by tmz.com, "Akon is being sued by another different contractor and claiming he didn't get paid for working with the superstar-producer and singer's floors." The name of the company is called Capital Floors. It has filed a $15,000 lien against the troublesome Georgia home. Another complaint was from a different company back in January. According to a past article by tmz.com, "Durable Steel Structures filed a lien against Akon's Georgia mansion, claiming its owed $36,765 for work already done on the home and both Akon and his mother are named in the line."
It seems that the home will bring more challenges for the famed singer if the issues are not dealt with. He is the son of percussionist Mor Thiam, and Aliaune Thiam. After signing with Universal, Akon released his debut album, 'Trouble', in 2004 as stated in a previous report by celebritynetworth.com. His net worth is derived from singing and producing. Akon co-created the record label Konvict Muzik on which he released his second and third albums, Konvicted and Freedom. As for his total net worth, it is $80 million as noted by celebritynetworth.com.
