Here's How Much Dwight Yoakam Is Really Worth

Posted by Noelle Montes on Thursday, May 2, 2024

Despite his success in selling millions of records, not everything that Dwight Yoakam touched turned to gold. The box-office failure of his self-produced flick "South of Heaven, West of Hell" is testament to that assessment. Still, media curiosity over how Yoakam finagled funding for the movie has focused on a Malibu ranch he sold for $825,000 before transferring $500,000 to the film's production. 

More than 20 years later, that ranch is worth more than $4.3 million, according to Realtor.com. The 12.6-acre spread on Yerba Buena Road — dubbed the Bony Pony ranch due to its proximity to the Boney Ridge mountains — is evidently meant to entertain guests, given that the lot boasts a guest house, four cabins, and several firepits. The main residence features three bedrooms and two bathrooms with a combination detached garage and loft. Other amenities include a barn, volleyball court, and an outdoor bar replete with a barbecue unit. Yoakam likes the property so much, he rebuilt structures destroyed in a firestorm in 1993.

After selling the ranch, Yoakam was hardly homeless, and he resides in a home somewhere in Los Angeles, as of this writing. According to Virtual Globetrotting, the country star owns a 5,830-square-foot house that includes six bedrooms and four bathrooms and was worth $1.24 million when he bought it in 1994. The listing doesn't mention any other amenities in the home, where Yoakam reportedly lives with his wife, Emily Joyce, and their young son, Dalton Loren.
