When Mike isn’t filming for American Pickers, he’s managing his many businesses and investing in real estate.
The U.S. Sun can exclusively go inside his massive real estate portfolio with an estimated worth of $5,089,900.
TENNESSEE PROPERTIES
Mike, who shares daughter Charlie, 11, with his ex-wife, Jodi, bought a $1,050,000 home after their divorce in June 2020 in Leiper’s Fork, Tennessee, according to Williamson County Court records.
The 3,153-square-foot mansion boasts three bedrooms and three bathrooms.
It also includes a detached garage for the collector to store his many cars.
The U.S. Sun previously reported Mike has purchased several commercial properties in Columbia, Tennessee, just 46 miles from Nashville, to help bring business and tourists to the small town.
A source told The U.S. Sun, “The project is costing $93 million. The town is happy Mike is taking this on to help bring new life to Columbia.”
According to Maury County property records, one commercial property is 4,320 square feet and valued at $214,100.

The property is rented out to Hazelwood Laboratories, as their business description reads, “Boutique music systems for hospitality and home.”
Mike also became the owner of a 2,900-square-foot property with a value of $192,700.
Muletown Coffee rents out the space.
Another commercial property is 4,653 square feet and is appraised at $336,300.
The space is a drama theater called Packard Playhouse.
Mike also owns a commercial property rented out to Trek Bicycle Store Columbia.
The space is worth $464,400 and is 6,279 square feet.
The square footage includes an upstairs apartment Mike rents out called Two Lanes Guesthouse.
The U.S. Sun previously reported that the American Pickers star charges $275 a night from Friday to Sunday, and $200 a night from Monday to Thursday.
During holidays, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s, the price is $425 a night.
Additional fees include a $100 cleaning fee, $25 per person if more than two guests stay at the location, a 14.25% lodging tax, and a security deposit.
The lodging features one bedroom with a king bed, a couch that pulls out a queen bed, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a washer and dryer.
The space is filled with antiques picked by Mike himself.
Mike bought former Chevrolet dealership Columbia Motor Alley, which was built in 1948, in November 2017 for $400,000, according to Maury County.
The estimated value is $717,400 and the building is a massive 13,440 square feet.
A source close to Mike previously told The U.S. Sun, “It used to be a car restoration building and then Mike Wolfe bought it.
“He has employees who work on bicycles and more in the garage section. Mike has his cars and motorcycles here on display. He has motorcycles, bikes, cars, and antiques he finds on the show.”
There is also a merchandise shop that sells shirts, hats, oil cans, mugs, and more goods.
There are also various vintage cars and motorcycles from Mike’s personal collection on display, including a black Ford Model A, a red Porsche, a beige 1934 Ford Coupe, and an Indian motorcycle.
Mike also hosts Columbia, Coffee, and Cars in the spring, summer, and fall months.
According to property records viewed by The U.S. Sun, Mike also dropped $600,000 on a 976-square-foot property on September 15, 2022.
The U.S. Sun previously reported the space will be a restaurant, as construction to the outside has been completed.
The front of the restaurant has a wooden pergola with lights streaming from the beams.
There are gray pavers under the pergola instead of concrete.
The fire pit area also has pavers, and there is a brick bench for customers who want to sit around the fire.
Opposite the brick fire pit are pavers that are elevated, which will be a stage for karaoke and performers.
The outdoor area is lined with a black metal gate and brick planter boxes with shrubs.
A source told The U.S. Sun at the time, “It’s going to be a restaurant. They are going to sell pizza, soda, that kind of stuff.
“Construction workers are building a stage for karaoke, a fire pit, and a pergola in front of the building.”
Just outside of the small town, Mike purchased a three-bathroom, 3,166-square-foot home for $700,000 on May 20, 2022.
The brick house features a wood deck, detached carport, cabana, utility building, porch, basement, and more amenities.
But Mike may not be done buying properties in Columbia, Tennessee, as The U.S. Sun can exclusively reveal he was seen checking out a new commercial building back in November.
Also in Tennessee, Mike owns another commercial property in Nashville as of September 2014 for a purchase price of zero.
The two-story commercial building is 3,604 square feet and was once owned by the tattoo and piercing parlor Slumerican Flagship Store before the business closed down.
Mike also bought a store in Franklin, Tennessee in September 2014 with a purchase price of zero.

The first story is occupied by the business The Shameless Chocoholic.
There is also a 1548-square-foot basement.
The building features two garages and a back patio with a wood deck.
In December 2010, Mike spent $115,000 on another commercial property in LeClaire.
In March 2013, he bought the lot next door for a purchase price of zero.
One Twenty Nine Coffee & Spirits are renting out the location.
In September 2011, Mike dropped $97,000 on another commercial property in Le Claire that he uses for his store Antique Archaeology.
In November 2013, he spent $23,000 on the plot right next door to extend Antique Archaeology.
SPINOFF SHOW?
The U.S. Sun previously reported Mike pitched filming a spinoff show about his Columbia project to History.
An insider said, “He pitched a spin-off show to the network about what he’s doing in Columbia. He’s restoring the town by opening up businesses.”
