Singer, guitarist, song writer, band leader, owner of restaurants and bars, developer of his own brand of tequila, has also acquired an impressive collection of real estate. He has recently put one of his seven homes on the market. Located on Lake Arrowhead, two hours from Los Angeles, Hagar’s French chateau-style getaway with stunning lake views is priced at $3.9 million.
Mostly a vagabond hard rocker performing as a solo artist and with a long list of bands, in 1985 he hit it big as the lead vocalist for the new-rock-group Van Halen scoring four multi-platinum albums. Today, Hagar still works with several bands but has turned most of his attention to his businesses opening two bicycle stores, restaurants and bars in Mexico and California and launched his own tequila brand. He also found time to grow his real estate portfolio with homes in Mill Valley, Corte Madera and Palm Desert, California; Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and Maui, Hawaii.
