Born Diane Hall in Los Angeles, Diane Keaton has had a robust career for more than five decades, and she leaves behind not only her legacy in films but also a financial empire.Keaton leaves behind an estimated net worth of $100 million, according to multiple celebrity wealth sources. She has amassed not just from a storied Hollywood career but also from her side hustle in high-end real estate restoration, among others. Her financial portfolio also extends to interior design, photography, and production work ventures. Keaton's major source of income was undoubtedly fueled by her Hollywood career. Starting from her iconic role in The Godfather (1972) to her Oscar-winning performance in Annie Hall (1977), and the recent Summer Camp (2024), Keaton was one of the most sought-after actors in the industry.The actress was also drawn towards architecture, design, and historic homes, which she eventually transformed into a business venture. Keaton bought high-value properties, restored and then flipped them to buyers. This side hustle eventually turned into a major contributor to her financial portfolio. For instance, in 2004, Keaton bought a lavish Laguna Beach property for $7.5 million. It was sold at a whopping $12.75 million in 2006. Later in 2016, she flipped a Pacific Palisades home for $6.9 million. Another instance is the $5.6 million Los Angeles property she purchased in 2012. In 2020, she listed a property in Tucson, Arizona, for $2.6 million, two years after purchasing it for $1.5 million, according to Parade. Even Madonna once snapped up a Keaton-renovated Los Angeles mansion for $6.5 million.Besides her Hollywood fame, her Broadway parts and television shows earned her money. Keaton charged anything between $150,000 and $299,000 for appearing as a guest speaker for social events, according to Celebrity Talent International.
