The three GTA Online mansions are ordered from cheapest to most expensive as The Tongva Estate, The Vinewood Residence, and Richman Villa. Reported base prices span GTA$11.5 million to GTA$12.8 million, but the amount shown at checkout can rise with optional rooms, staff, pets, décor, and other customizations. The figures below are in-game GTA$ amounts, not real-world prices. Epic Games Store’s 2025 guide reports the base prices; Rockstar Games’ Title Update 1.72 notes confirm the three properties and their features but do not publish a price list.
How much does each GTA Online mansion cost?
Epic Games Store’s A Safehouse in the Hills guide reports these base prices. Rockstar’s official Title Update 1.72 notes confirm that three customizable mansions are sold through Prix Luxury Real Estate, while omitting the numerical prices.
| Property | Reported base price | Price position |
|---|---|---|
| The Tongva Estate | GTA$11,500,000 | Lowest |
| The Vinewood Residence | GTA$12,200,000 | Middle |
| Richman Villa | GTA$12,800,000 | Highest |
These are starting figures for the properties, not guaranteed totals for a fully equipped mansion. The difference between the least and most expensive base options is GTA$1.3 million, so a player choosing only on entry price will save the most with Tongva. Optional additions can narrow or reverse that difference depending on what you buy.
Are the listed mansion prices the final bill?
No. The reported amounts are base prices. Rockstar separates the property purchase from additional rooms, services, and cosmetic choices, so the final total depends on your configuration.
What can add to the cost?
- Optional rooms such as an Armory, Arcade, Vehicle Podium, Vehicle Workshop, or Art Studio.
- Security staff, which affect raid protection for your other businesses.
- A cat or dog purchased as a mansion pet.
- Décor and other customization choices offered through the property interface.
No complete price sheet for every room, pet, staff package, or decoration is established here. Treat the amount displayed by Prix Luxury Real Estate as the authoritative total for your selected configuration, and do not assume that a base-price article or an old promotion reflects the current checkout amount. The available evidence does not establish that a launch discount is active now.
How do I buy a mansion in GTA Online?
Use the in-game Prix Luxury Real Estate site rather than relying on a remembered price or a screenshot. The menu labels can change with patches, but the purchase flow is built around that property website.
- Enter GTA Online and open the in-game internet browser.
- Navigate to the Prix Luxury Real Estate website.
- Review the three mansion listings and select The Tongva Estate, The Vinewood Residence, or Richman Villa.
- Open the customization screens and add only the rooms, staff, pets, and décor you can afford.
- Read the complete checkout total, including every selected option, before confirming the purchase.
- After buying, revisit the property-management screens to configure features such as the AI Assistant, security, and optional facilities.
If the listing, property value, garage behavior, fast travel, or pet controls look incorrect, check for an available game update and reload the session. Rockstar’s Title Update 1.73 notes document fixes affecting mansion entry, garages, fast travel, pets, parties, and property-value displays, so an old client or a temporary session problem can produce information that does not match the current listing.
What does every mansion provide?
Rockstar describes the mansions as customizable properties with exclusive functions, not merely decorative safehouses. The core feature set is broadly shared, while the exact rooms and extras you buy determine how useful a particular property becomes.
AI Assistant and business control
Each mansion has an AI Assistant who can temporarily increase the production speed of a chosen business. The assistant also supports fast travel to owned properties and businesses and can help host mansion parties. You can choose among the personalities Angel, Haviland, and OG. The production effect is a temporary boost applied to a selected business, not a permanent upgrade to every operation you own.
An office Master Control Terminal provides remote access to several owned business operations. This is most valuable to players who manage multiple businesses and want fewer trips between separate locations. Rockstar does not describe the terminal as universal control over every possible activity, so check which operations are available in your current interface.
Living and leisure spaces
Documented mansion amenities include a media room, spa, cigar room, salon, trophy cabinets, gym equipment, and yoga mats. The gym and yoga equipment build Strength and Stamina and grant temporary stat bonuses. A rooftop helipad is also included among the listed mansion features.
Pets are optional purchases: you can add a cat or dog rather than receiving one automatically with the base property. Their presence is a customization decision and should be included in your budget only if you want the role-play feature.
Vehicles, storage, and money
The basement garage holds 20 vehicles. The mansion also includes a private nightclub and a personal vault that stores your character’s wallet and bank cash. These facilities make the property a practical hub, but they do not make the base price an all-inclusive package; optional rooms remain separate decisions.
Which mansion upgrades matter most?
Choose upgrades by the activity you actually perform. Rockstar confirms the functions below but does not publish a universal price list for them, so compare their utility against the total shown in your own listing.
| Option | What it does | Best fit |
|---|---|---|
| Security staff | Reduces the chance that owned businesses are raided; with that business’s Security upgrade also purchased, the raid risk can be eliminated. | Players who maintain businesses and want less interruption. |
| Armory | Adds the Mk II Weapon Workshop and loadout customization. | Combat-focused players who regularly modify weapons. |
| Arcade | Adds an arcade room to the mansion. | Players who want another leisure space and a themed headquarters. |
| Vehicle Podium | Adds a display feature for a vehicle. | Collectors who want a showcase area. |
| Vehicle Workshop | Allows modification of personal vehicles. | Players who prefer to tune vehicles at home instead of traveling elsewhere. |
| Art Studio | Unlocks access to the Kortz Center Heist. | Players interested in the later mansion-linked heist and art collection. |
Rockstar specifically says GTA+ members receive the same HSW, Benny’s, and Drift Tuning options in the mansion Vehicle Workshop as in the Vinewood Club Garage. That condition applies to those tuning options; it should not be generalized into a claim that every workshop function requires GTA+.
How does mansion security affect business raids?
Security staff lower the chance that your owned businesses will be raided. Rockstar adds an important condition: if you also purchase the Security upgrade for the affected business, the raid risk can be eliminated.
That means the mansion staff option is not a blanket guarantee for every business by itself. A player with several operations should account for both layers: mansion security staff and the individual business’s own Security upgrade. If you rarely operate businesses, the upgrade may provide less practical value than a workshop, armory, or purely cosmetic room.
What changed with the Art Studio and Kortz Center Heist?
Rockstar’s later Title Update 1.73 notes add an Art Studio purchase for an owned mansion through Prix Luxury Real Estate. Buying it grants access to the Kortz Center Heist, which includes preparation missions and a finale.
The heist’s stolen art can be sold for profit or displayed in owned mansions. Rockstar does not state an Art Studio price in the cited notes, so no reliable amount should be added to the three base-price figures. Treat the Art Studio as a later, mansion-linked purchase whose cost must be checked in the current in-game listing.
Which GTA Online mansion should I choose?
There is no evidence here of a different core feature package tied permanently to one property. The sensible choice combines the base price, your customization plan, and the location or scenery you personally prefer.
| Decision factor | How to use it |
|---|---|
| Entry price | Tongva is the lowest reported base price, Vinewood is in the middle, and Richman is highest. |
| Customization budget | Estimate rooms, staff, pets, and décor before deciding that the cheapest base property is the cheapest finished property. |
| Location | Choose the Los Santos setting you like or find convenient. The available sources do not provide a neutral, tested travel-time ranking. |
| Business use | Prioritize the Master Control Terminal, AI Assistant boost, and security staff if you run several businesses. |
| Vehicle use | The 20-car garage is standard among the documented features; add a Vehicle Workshop if home tuning matters to you. |
| Membership conditions | Remember that Rockstar specifically ties the full HSW, Benny’s, and Drift Tuning options to GTA+ membership. |
| Heist interest | Reserve funds for the Art Studio if you want the Kortz Center Heist, because it is not part of the base-price figure. |
Because the sources do not provide hands-on travel tests or a measured performance difference between the three sites, claims that one mansion is objectively faster or more convenient should be treated as player preference unless separately verified.
How much GTA$ should I have before buying?
Start with the reported base price, then leave room for the features that match your play style. A practical budget check is:
- At least GTA$11.5 million for the least expensive reported base option, before any additions.
- GTA$12.2 million for the reported Vinewood base price.
- GTA$12.8 million for the reported Richman base price.
- Additional funds for rooms, security staff, pets, décor, and the Art Studio if you want it.
- A reserve for business Security upgrades if your plan depends on eliminating raid risk.
Do not spend down to the last dollar based on a guide’s base figure. The current listing is the only place that can show your selected configuration’s total, and patches or promotions can change what appears there.
What should I do if the in-game price does not match a guide?
Check the date and scope of the figure first. The three amounts above are reported base prices from Epic Games Store’s 2025 guide, while Rockstar’s cited update notes do not quote those amounts and do not establish a current promotion.
- Open the Prix Luxury Real Estate listing and confirm whether you are viewing the base property or a customized configuration.
- Remove optional rooms, staff, pets, and décor temporarily to see the underlying base amount.
- Check for a current event discount or changed listing after updating the game; no active discount is established by the available evidence.
- Restart the session if the property value, garage, entry, or fast-travel information appears inconsistent.
- Use the final checkout screen, not an old video or social-media image, as your purchase reference.
What is the practical verdict on the three mansions?
The Tongva Estate is the lowest-cost entry point, The Vinewood Residence occupies the middle price tier, and Richman Villa costs the most at base level. None is proven to be universally best: the deciding factors are your upgrade plan, business usage, preferred location, vehicle needs, and interest in the Art Studio and Kortz Center Heist. Buy only after checking the live Prix Luxury Real Estate total for the exact configuration you want.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Rockstar’s update page not list the mansion prices?
Rockstar’s Title Update 1.72 notes focus on confirming the three properties and documenting their features, not publishing a price table. The numerical base figures are reported by Epic Games Store’s 2025 guide, so they should be attributed to that secondary source rather than presented as a Rockstar quotation.
Is the AI Assistant’s business boost permanent?
No. Rockstar describes it as a temporary increase in the production speed of a chosen business. It is a convenience effect you activate through the mansion, not a permanent replacement for that business’s own upgrades.
Do I need GTA+ to use the mansion Vehicle Workshop?
Rockstar documents the Vehicle Workshop as a mansion option, but specifically grants GTA+ members the same HSW, Benny’s, and Drift Tuning options available in the Vinewood Club Garage. The membership condition applies to those named tuning options, so check the current interface for the functions available on your account.
Can artwork from the Kortz Center Heist be kept instead of sold?
Yes. Rockstar’s Title Update 1.73 notes say stolen art can be sold for profit or displayed in an owned mansion. The Art Studio purchase is the gateway to that heist, and its price is not stated in the cited notes.
