Stevie Wonder is a house flipper and makes very good money doing it. From reading the real estate section in the Los Angeles Times I think quite a few music and movie industry folks supplement their income by house flipping.

4 years ago he purchased a 1928 Mediterranean house in Los Feliz for $2.407 million and after what looks like a complete tearing apart of the interior he is now trying to sell it for $8.199 million.

You can see the pictures of the remodeled house here:

The glassed in room is where the tiki bar used to be. It has been replaced with a white marble bar.

Pictures of the house before the remodel can be seen here:
