Angel Reese is waving goodbye to her massive Chicago abode! According to a new report, the former Chicago Sky star is planning to list her Windy City home for a whopping $1.45 million on Monday, June 8, 2026. The not-so-surprising move comes a little over a year after she purchased the home and just eight weeks after she was traded from the struggling WNBA team to the Atlanta Dream.
Angel Reese Is Waving Goodbye To Her Chicago Abode As She Lists The Sprawling Property For $1.45 Million
NBC 5 Chicago recently reported that Reese is planning to sell her home in Lemont, Illinois, for $1.45 million. The 3,600-square-foot property has five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The home, located at 12735 Caruso Court, has an open concept design with a chef’s kitchen, custom window treatments, updated lighting, an office, an entertainment room, a three-car garage, a lookout basement, and a fenced-in backyard.
Reese purchased the home in April 2025 for $1.28 million, according to Redfin.
Angel Reese Flexed The Purchase Of Her New Home On Social Media Last Year
Reese opened up about purchasing her first home in April 2025 with a social media post. It came after much chatter about whether the LSU standout could afford her rent.
In late 2024, Reese made headlines when she revealed that her $74,000 WNBA salary wasn’t enough to pay her bills.
“I just hope y’all know,” she said during an Instagram Live video, “the WNBA don’t pay my bills at all. I don’t even think it pays one of my bills. Literally.”
Shortly after, Reese revealed that she was paying $8,000/month in rent, or about $96,000 per year, during her rookie season.
“I’m living beyond my means!” she joked.
Angel Reese Made Nearly $10 Million In 2025, Making Her The Highest-Paid Black Woman In Professional Basketball
Reese’s comments sparked a lot of chatter, with one person saying on Reddit, “Make better financial decisions then,” while another said, “OK, so why is she living in an $8,000/mo place?? Regardless of who you are, you still have to live within your means.”
While some users took Reese’s comments literally, it’s clear that the WNBA superstar was being sarcastic, considering the 24-year-old made $9.4 million in 2025, making her the highest-paid Black woman in basketball, per The Blast.
Over the years, Reese has signed endorsement deals with Victoria’s Secret, Cash App, Beats by Dre, and Reese’s. In addition, Reese has her own shoe line with Reebok and a podcast, “Unapologetically Angel.”
“That check that I do get [in the WNBA] is a bonus,” she said. “Being able to play for what, four to five months, and get $75,000 on top of the other endorsements that I’m doing, I think it’s a plus for me.”
And don’t forget, after her rookie season, Reese signed a deal with Unrivaled Basketball and received $250,000 for the eight-week season.
“Being able to be in Miami from January to March, not having to go overseas,” Reese said about her decision to play in the growing 3×3 league. “Nobody wants to go overseas. A lot of us never want to have to go overseas, but some people do have to go overseas unfortunately, so being able to make six figures within three months, being able to be housed in Miami, just being able to get better. … I’m excited for it.”
Reese’s Move Is A Result Of Her Trade To The Atlanta Dream
Besides all that, the biggest reason Reese is likely selling her property in Chicago is that she’ll be spending most of her time in Atlanta with the Dream.
According to The Blast, Reese was traded in April 2026. Sky general manager Jeff Pagliocca broke his silence on the matter, wishing Reese the best and explaining the why behind the trade.
“This trade is designed to achieve roster balance and represents a great opportunity for all parties,” he said. “Angel has achieved many record-breaking milestones in her first two years in the WNBA and has been a competitive force for the Sky. We are thankful for her many important contributions to this league and this game, and we know she will continue to have a big impact on the court and beyond.”
Reese Is Off To A Great Start With Atlanta
Reese has been off to a great start in Atlanta. Not only is the team 7-3 with the second-best record in the league right now, but she’s also set new records.
Recently, Reese became the fastest player in league history to reach 900 rebounds and the fastest Atlanta Dream player to register 100 points and 100 rebounds (in 9 games).
And the season is just getting started!
