Eva Mendes – $1.269 Million Home, California

Eva de la Caridad Méndez or professionally known as Eva Mendes is one of Hollywood’s most famous actresses. Her performances started in the late 1990s. After a series of minor roles and insignificant performances, she eventually broke into the mainstream and became a leading role in Hollywood movies. A huge part of her success was her role in Training Day, which opened up the door of opportunity for her.

From then on, she was not just your ordinary model, she’s now a model and superstar with a deep bank account under her name. Aside from her skill set, she also showed huge potential when it comes to running her own investments. A prime example of that would be her home in California that she managed to grab for only a fraction of over $500K but with a few renovations and decorations, she managed to bump up the total price of the property to $1.26 million.
