J.Lo Relists Ben Affleck Mansion for $50M at a Loss

Jennifer Lopez is ready to close the chapter — and the door — on the sprawling Beverly Hills mansion she once shared with Ben Affleck. The singer and actress has relisted the Beverly Crest compound for $49,995,000, marking the third time the property has hit the market since the former couple’s very public split in mid-2024.

It’s a steep discount from where this real estate saga began. Lopez and Affleck purchased the 38,000-square-foot estate at 2571 Wallingford Drive for $60.85 million in May 2023, less than a year after they wed, and poured millions more into renovations to turn it into their dream home. They first listed it for $68 million in July 2024 — roughly a month before Lopez filed for divorce. The math on the current ask is not pretty: at $49.9 million, the sale would represent a loss on their original purchase price, before renovation costs are even factored in.

A Long, Complicated Road to Market

This property has had more false starts than a Hollywood reboot. After the initial $68 million listing sat untouched for months, the pair slashed the price to $59.95 million in May 2025. Still no takers. They pulled it off the market entirely that July, only for it to resurface in September 2025 at $52 million. By January 2026, it was delisted again — with reports surfacing that Lopez was still living there while renovations wrapped up on her new $17.5 million Hidden Hills property.

Behind the scenes, the two exes weren’t exactly aligned on strategy. “Jennifer thinks they can get more money for the home, so she wants to keep the price as is,” a source told Us Weekly in April 2025. “But the real estate market is not there and it’s not selling.” Affleck, meanwhile, was done. “Ben wants to get rid of it because their divorce is over and he wants to cut all ties and have it be done,” the source explained. “He just wants it over and to sell it. He wants to reduce the price.”

Adding to the headaches: the mansion reportedly costs around $500,000 a year just to insure.

Ben Walks Away — and Hands Her the Keys

The dynamic shifted dramatically last month when Affleck signed over his entire stake in the property to Lopez. Court documents obtained by TMZ show the former spouses amended their property settlement agreement from the divorce to give Lopez full ownership. According to those documents, Affleck took no payment in return. “The parties shall be responsible for any taxes arising from the transactions/transfers,” the docs read. “The parties agree that the transactions/transfers shall constitute a transfer of property among spouses incident to divorce for federal income tax purposes.”

It’s a remarkable gesture — gifting away a stake worth tens of millions of dollars. But context matters: in March, Affleck sold his A.I. company, InterPositive, to Netflix for a reported $600 million. As TMZ put it, $30-plus million is suddenly “just a drop in the bucket for Ben.” The move also reportedly served a more personal purpose — sources have suggested Affleck made the transfer as a way to ease lingering tension with his ex and draw a clean line under their shared business.

The upshot for Lopez is significant. Now that she owns the property outright, any sale proceeds go entirely to her — meaning she could still come out ahead personally, even if the deal looks like a loss on paper compared to the original joint purchase price.

What $50 Million Gets You

For whoever does end up writing that check, the compound is genuinely extraordinary. The listing, held by Rayni and Branden Williams of The Beverly Hills Estates, describes it as “the ultimate celebrity compound” — and it’s hard to argue.

Set on 5.2 acres in the gated Beverly Crest community, the estate spans 38,000 square feet with 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms. There’s a 5,000-square-foot guest penthouse, a caretaker house, a two-bedroom guardhouse, a 12-car garage, and parking for up to 80 vehicles. The indoor sports complex — which the listing says “rivals a private club” — includes basketball and pickleball courts, a full gym, a boxing ring, a sports lounge, and a bar. Out back, a zero-edge pool sits against sweeping views of the Los Angeles hills.

The new listing photos are notably different from previous rounds. Many of Lopez’s personal belongings have been cleared out — her enormous walk-in closet appears empty, and the more personal touches that once made the place feel lived-in are gone. The images now lean into the estate’s architectural bones: soaring ceilings, an open floor plan, a tennis court, and that resort-style pool.

For context on just how volatile this property’s pricing has been: its previous owner first tried to sell the Beverly Crest mansion back in 2018 for $135 million, eventually cutting the price to $75 million before Lopez and Affleck swooped in.

Both Moving Forward

Affleck has been settled in his own place for a while now — he purchased a $20.5 million bachelor pad in Brentwood back in July 2024, shortly after their split became public. He’s kept busy professionally, and the two have managed to maintain at least a functional working relationship post-divorce — Affleck served as executive producer on last year’s film adaptation of Kiss of the Spider Woman, which starred Lopez.

Lopez, for her part, has been settling into her Hidden Hills home — a comparatively modest 8,600-square-foot, five-bedroom estate on two acres, complete with a guest house, pool house, and equestrian facilities including a five-stall barn and private riding arena. She purchased it in February 2025 through a trust linked to her business manager, reportedly after months of house hunting that began around April 2024 as rumors of trouble in the marriage first started circulating.

Sources say she’s focused on the next phase of her life — including her kids heading off to college — and has made clear she’s not thinking about dating right now. Selling the house would be the last remaining thread tying her and Affleck to their shared past.

Whether the third time’s the charm for this listing remains to be seen. But at just under $50 million, with fresh photos and sole ownership finally in hand, Lopez seems serious about moving on — for real this time.
