Witsel seems quite low profiled regarding his property details, and sadly, he has not disclosed the detail of his house. Probably, with his massive earnings, he owns a big property empire.

And talking about cars, Witsel seems really attracted towards luxury cars. his car collection includes cars like Porsche, Mercedez, and Audi. The total worth of his cars is estimated to be around $1 million.
Back in February 2017, the news of his wife intention to sell her car arose. Rafaella Szabo, Axel's wife made the sales announcement of her Ford Ka for the asking price of $4,217 even though, he earns a huge salary.
Really wastage of money or property is not a good thing.
