How Much Is Gene Hackman Really Worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Gene Hackman currently owns a sprawling property in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he resides with wife Betsy Arakawa. Per Architectural Digest, the home, which underwent a significant remodel, boasts "a 360-degree view that stretches as far as the mountains of Colorado." Before he landed in this enchanting home in the Land of Enchantment, he had a property in Montecito, California, with his first wife, Faye Maltese. Chatting with Architectural Digest in 1982, Hackman discussed the changes he and Maltese made to the house. "We spent a year and a half on it and it gives me a great deal of pleasure— continuing pleasure, you might say, because we are always working on it," he said. "We are comfortable here, and we succeeded in our wish to both protect and change this house." In 1985, that property sold for over $5 million. 

What's more, he also owned a massive property in the Pebble Beach area of California that's changed hands a few times since it was in his name. Per The Mercury News, it sold in 2015 for a breezy $27 million. Oh, and as Curbed Seattle noted, he also owned an island off the coast of Washington, sold it, and scooped up "an even more secluded spot in British Columbia." Not bad for a kid who "wasn't very good at" polishing furniture once upon a time.
