Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are doing their best to leave behind their past, a past that is literally inhabiting their $68 million mansion in Beverly Hills.
Although this power couple may have had many ups and downs in their relationship, it now looks like their real estate mistakes are being exposed. Recently, they split and put their massive 38,000-square-foot home on the market, and it doesn’t look like they’re selling it very easily. Despite this, as expected, the deal and the concept of having a potential buyer collapsed again.
Notably, Lopez and Affleck first met while shooting the film Gigli and began dating shortly thereafter. By the end of 2002, they became engaged, but they postponed their wedding in 2003 and eventually broke up in 2004. In 2021, the pair rekindled their romance and got engaged again, eventually marrying in a lavish ceremony in 2022.

according to tmz“A New Jersey couple fell in love with their 38,000-square-foot Beverly Hills area home,” and it appeared that Lopez and Affleck were finally going to part ways with the property. Unfortunately, tragedy struck and the buyers backed out due to a death in their family, even though they were still interested in the mansion.
TMZ also reported that the couple will likely lose money on the sale due to several factors, including improvements made to the home, the Los Angeles mansion tax and their broker’s fees. Affleck has already purchased a new home, and Lopez is also looking for a new place.
“Since Lopez and Affleck have listed the home relatively close to the amount they paid for it, it’s clear they really want to move the property,” Beverly Hills luxury real estate agent Josh Flagg previously told People. “Because financial loss is not the couple’s main concern.

“Typically, people do not sell their primary residence until a year after purchasing it unless there is a divorce, death or some type of desistance. I’m also going to assume (a guess) that they won’t stop at making money. They are either incurring losses or incurring slight losses.”
