(NewsNation) — Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez still have a big real estate-sized problem on their hands.
The famous exes still haven’t been able to sell their Beverly Hills mansion after a year and a half on the market, Elle Décor reports.
Lopez and the “Argo” director pulled the property off the market for a second time because they weren’t able to sell the home for $52 million.

According to Elle Décor, they initially sought $68 million for the home.
After the “Play” singer and Affleck got married in 2022, they bought the Beverly Hills mansion for $60.85 million a year later, much less than the whopping $135 million the home was originally listed for in 2018.

The home is 38,000 square feet, sits on five acres, boasts 12 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a 12-car garage and a state-of-the-art gym, boxing ring and pickleball court.

Lopez and Affleck ended their marriage in 2024, officially divorcing in 2025.
The former couple is paying over $1 million per year in property taxes, according to NewsNation’s Paula Froelich.

“The property taxes alone on that house are $762,000 a year — and another $750,000 to insure it and maintain it. So, whoever buys it, they’re out at least $1.5 million per year just to keep the lights on,” a source told Froelich.
The home being on the market for 18 months is unusual, as the Beverly Hills housing market has been competitive, with homes selling in around 95 days, according to Redfin.
