A Georgia mansion formerly owned by actor and entertainment mogul Tyler Perry will be sold to the highest bidder in a luxury auction® on Sunday, November 19. The 11.4-acre property will be offered without reserve. It initially asked $6 million. The current seller, a private entrepreneur who became the home’s second owner after buying it from Mr. Perry in 2018, retained Miami-based Platinum Luxury Auctions to exclusively manage the sale.
