The final chapter in Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck‘s failed marriage could finally be set to close—after the actress reportedly accepted an offer on the former couple’s marital home, following a yearslong struggle to secure a buyer.
Lopez, 56, and Affleck, 53, initially purchased the palatial Beverly Hills spread for $60.85 million in May 2023 with the intent of turning the dwelling into their marital home. But just over a year later, it had returned to the market for the much higher price of $68 million, days before the singer filed for divorce from the “Gone Girl” star.
But while the former couple moved swiftly through their divorce proceedings—finalizing their split in February 2025—their marital home remained a lingering headache, even as they hacked millions off their initial asking price.
In April of this year, it was then reported that Affleck had agreed to “gift” his former spouse his portion of the property, leaving her free to pursue a sale of the home by herself. Less than a month later, she relisted the home for the much lower ask of $49.99 million, more than $18 million less than they had originally marketed the home and nearly $11 million less than they had paid for it.
Now, one of Lopez’s brokers—Branden Williams, who held the listing with Rayni Williams, both of The Beverly Hills Estates—has told the New York Post that the “Jenny from the Block” singer has accepted an offer on the property and is currently in escrow.
While Williams did not disclose the identity of the prospective buyer, he hinted that they will be almost as well known to the public as the famous seller, describing him as working “in tech and finance,” while noting: “Everybody knows his name.”
The listing agent also declined to reveal the offer that was made to his client.
Affleck and Lopez purchased the extraordinary property for $60.9 million in May 2023, less than a year after they wed, and quickly set about renovating the estate, reportedly spending millions to turn it into their dream marital sanctuary.
However, just over a year later, they put the property back on the market with an asking price of $68 million, and soon after, it was revealed that they had officially split.
While they managed to finalize their divorce within just 20 weeks of Lopez filing, selling their former marital home would turn out to be a much tougher task to complete—and by May 2025, the exes had dropped their asking price to $59.95 million, before delisting the home just two months later.
The expansive dwelling reappeared on the market in September for the even lower price of $52 million, only to be delisted in January, when reports surfaced that Lopez was still residing in the home while renovations were completed on her new $18 million property in Hidden Hills.
By April 2026, it was reported that the actor had wiped his hands clean of the headache that was their marital home and given his portion of the property to the songstress. At the time, it was was assumed that Lopez would be making the home her main residence.
Then, in May, the home’s asking price was once again decreased to $49.99 million.
The latest listing came complete with a brand new set of images that elegantly capture its open floor plan, tennis court, soaring ceilings, and resort-style pool.
The listing described the property as the “the ultimate celebrity compound.”
“Set within one of the city’s most secure gated enclaves, this newly rebuilt estate spans five acres on a commanding promontory, opening to sweeping mountain views and complete seclusion,” the description added.
Interestingly, the latest listing images revealed that many of the living spaces have been cleared of all Lopez’s belongings—with the enormous walk-in closet seen empty, while many of the more personal items that were previously pictured have now been removed.
In April, TMZ reported that Affleck effectively walked away from his interests in the property altogether, with court documents obtained by the outlet indicating that the former spouses have amended their property settlement agreement from the divorce in order to give Lopez full ownership of the mansion.
While the documents did not include details of the transfer, TMZ alleged that Affleck took no payment from Lopez in return for his share of the home.
“The parties shall be responsible for any taxes arising from the transactions/transfers. The parties agree that the transactions/transfers shall constitute a transfer of property among spouses incident to divorce for federal income tax purposes,” the documents read.
When Lopez and Affleck’s divorce was originally finalized in January 2025, the duo agreed to split any profits from the sale of their former marital home.
However, they faced a desperate struggle to find a buyer for the lavish dwelling—during which Lopez shared several images of herself still residing at the home, despite having purchased another nearby dwelling in Hidden Hills for $17.5 million in February 2025.
In September, the actress and singer sparked speculation that she was angling to hold onto the property when she took to her Instagram to share snaps of herself getting ready for different red carpet events inside the enormous abode.
Lopez has not commented on her current living situation—however, one source claimed to the Daily Mail that the songstress was making use of the Beverly Hills megamansion while her new abode undergoes renovations.
“Jennifer is staying [at her and Ben’s former home] because she still owns it, so why not? Also, her new house in Hidden Hills is undergoing renovations so it would not be comfortable to move in yet,” the insider said.
It’s unclear whether the new agreement with Affleck prompted Lopez to put that new home back on the market.
The Hidden Hills property, though luxurious, somewhat pales in comparison to the Beverly Hills mansion, offer five bedrooms and eight bathrooms. It was described in its listing as “exuding sophistication,” offering the perfect mix between “the best of New England charm” and “relaxed California informality.”
Property records reveal that Lopez purchased the 2-acre dwelling via a trust that is linked to her business manager, having reportedly been searching for her ideal new home since April 2024, when rumors about a rift in her marriage first began to circulate.
The property spans more than 8,600 square feet and is made up of a main residence, guesthouse, pool house, and a five-stall barn complete with a tack room and a private equestrian arena.
Inside the main home there are five en suite bedrooms, including a “sumptuous master suite,” which boasts dual walk-in closets, a wet bar, a private balcony, and an incredible bathroom worthy of a five-star resort that boasts a steam shower and an enormous bathtub.
The Beverly Hills mansion features a wide range of custom amenities, including an indoor sports complex, complete with basketball and pickleball courts, a fully equipped gym, a boxing ring, a sports lounge, and a bar.
As for its more “traditional” features, the home boasts a staggering 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms that are dotted around its vast 38,000-square-foot interior. The estate sits on a plum 5.2-acre lot in the Beverly Crest community.
The listing describes the abode as a serene spot where “timeless elegance and modern convenience blend seamlessly in the heart of Beverly Hills.”
Affleck has long since moved on from the home, reportedly purchasing a $20.5 million Pacific Palisades bachelor pad in July 2024.
