Metallica front man James Hetfield just cashed out on some land he owned down in Arizona … and he’s pocketing six figures from the transaction.
According to new legal docs … James sold the 20 acres of vacant land he owned in Pima County for $1.2 million.
The docs, say James struck a deal with the Rosemont Copper Company … and the corporation is paying the rocker in straight cash. Cha-ching!!!
James first bought the sprawling plot of land, which is near the United States border with Mexico, in 1998.
James has been an involved member in the community … the Metallica Scholars Initiative recently donated $100k to Pima Community College.
We reached out to reps for James … so far, no word back.
Ya gotta love real estate … it’s almost always a good investment … and they’re not making any more land.
