Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat has Purchased a $10.5 Million Mansion in Pinecrest

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro just purchased a $10.5 million mansion in Pinecrest of Miami breaking a record for the highest home sold in the community.

The sale broke the Pinecrest record of $10.3 million set earlier this month by the sale of 6155 Southwest 106th Street.

Herro purchased the eight bedroom, eight and a half bathroom mansion located at Southwest 124th Street using a trust managed by Ronald Brown II, which was disclosed to belong to Herro.

Herro's trust financed $7.4 million of the property from HSBC Bank.

The 9,500-square-foot home was built last year on a nearly 1-acre lot and was originally bought at $5.3 million for the property. According to the listing, the home has a gourmet kitchen, wine cellar, summer kitchen, cabana, pool, and media room. The original list price was at $11.9 million.

Herro recently agreed to terms with the Heat on a four-year, $120 million contract. After one year of college basketball at the University of Kentucky, the shooting guard was drafted by the franchise in 2019. Last season, he was named the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year, an award given to the league's best player who came off the bench as a substitute.

Pinecrest and the surrounding neighborhoods have been home to a number of Miami Heat players. A year after signing a four-year, $184 million contract extension with the Heat, all-star small forward Jimmy Butler paid $7.4 million for a home near South Miami in January. Butler sold his Pinecrest home for $7.1 million last year.

Former Miami Real Housewife Cristy Rice, the ex-wife of former Miami Heat player Glen Rice, paid $5.1 million for the home she shared with her ex-husband near Coral Gables and South Miami.

Further east on the ocean, Miami Heat President Pat Riley, dubbed "the Godfather" in the NBA, and his wife, Chris, sold their condo at the Four Seasons Residences at the Surf Club in Surfside for $22.8 million, or a South Florida record $5,775 per square foot.
