Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Face Marital Home Sales Struggles

As Hollywood's former golden couple, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are now finding themselves in a real estate pickle! Their luxurious Beverly Hills mansion, listed at a staggering $68 million, is failing to attract serious buyers. It seems tensions are rising between the ex-spouses over the price tag!

Why the Luxurious Mansion Isn’t Selling

After hitting the market in July 2024, the mansion hasn’t garnered any substantial interest so far this year, according to sources. Ben is eager to lower the price to entice buyers, but Jennifer is hesitant to make any moves. Multiple realtors confirm that the current asking price is excessively high, advising a drastic price cut of at least 15% to spark interest.

Market Dynamics Working Against Them

Real estate experts note that affluent buyers are currently in search of deals, making Ben and Jen's mansion appear overpriced. The couple initially splurged $60.85 million in cash for the estate back in May 2023, but now it seems they may have overstepped.

Rising Insurance Costs a Deterrent

Compounding their selling troubles are surging insurance costs. Following devastating wildfires in January that ravaged many Los Angeles neighborhoods, prospective buyers are deterred by the steep estimated annual insurance fees of $500,000. This staggering figure is causing many potential buyers to second-guess their interest.

A Complicated Divorce Settlement

Despite their smooth divorce settlement earlier this year, which included terms regarding their marital home, the details remain a closely guarded secret. As they navigate the complexities of selling their opulent estate, only time will tell if Ben and J Lo come to a consensus on pricing and find a buyer.
