Ryan Garcia buys his first home

However, the 24-year-old has now spent a large part of this on his new home in California. According to TMZ, Garcia has purchased his first ever home, costing him a whopping $3.1 million. The house is located in Porter Ranch, which is around 30 miles north of downtown Los Angeles.

The property is spread across 3,680 square feet and comes with two stories, five bedrooms, and six bathrooms. It also has a luxury pool, spa, and an outdoor fireplace to justify its extravagant price tag.

I am honored to have had the opportunity to be a part of this big step in your life. Cheers to many more accomplishments together for us to celebrate. Love you my brother,” he wrote.
