Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez Face Major Roadblock Amid Sale Of Their $68M Marital Home
MEGABen Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have lost a potential buyer of their Beverly Hills home, which they listed on Zillow for $68 million. The estranged couple is in the middle of a divorce and is looking to quickly settle all of their financial affairs, especially their shared assets, so that they can have an amicable separation. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have been spotted on several occasions recently and reports claim that they hope to remain friends despite the dissolution of their marriage. Ben Affleck And Jennifer Lopez's Home Is Still On The Market As Potential Buyers 'Pull Out Of Escrow' MEGAThe former lovebirds reportedly accepted an offer on their stunning Beverly Hills marital home, which would have potentially sped up the property settlement in their divorce. However, the pair may have to wait a little longer if they must offload the property. According to TMZ, a source revealed that a couple from New Jersey fell "in love" with the 38,000-square-foot property and made a $64 million offer, which the A-list stars accepted. Unfortunately, the potential buyers reportedly suffered a death in their family and "pulled out of escrow." The insider, however, noted that they "are still interested in the property." Affleck and Lopez paid $61 million for the house in May 2023 and spent millions on renovations. According to the news outlet, they also had to pay a 5.25 percent mansion tax and a "hefty fee to the realtors," meaning they've invested a lot into the 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom home.

Lopez and Affleck were understood to have chosen the property to accommodate their blended family. The "Argo" actor shares three children, Violet, Fin, and Samuel, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, while Lopez shares twins, Max and Emme, with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
