Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Reportedly Willing to Lose Money to Sell Their Massive Mansion Amid Divorce Rumors
Fans who have spent months following the Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck divorce rumors were just handed another hint that the couple is headed for a split after just a couple of years of marriage. Plenty of evidence suggests the infamous couple is planning to sell the home they bought together. Selling the house so soon after purchasing it could cost them millions.
Photos of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s mansion further fuel rumors of a divorce
Late last week, something curious happened. Dozens of photos of the house belonging to Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were suddenly available on real estate sites like Zillow. The mysterious change led fans to assume the couple was planning to sell their house, which further fueled divorce rumors. Apparently, they are planning to sell off the home.
TMZ spoke with an insider who said Lopez and Affleck are working with Santiago Arana from The Agency to offload the multi-million dollar property. According to the insider, the couple is looking to sell the property for $65 million, just around 4 million more than they paid. While that might seem like a tidy profit, they will likely lose money in the long run. TMZ points out that once the couple factors in taxes, commissions, and the renovations they completed on the property, they’ll likely lose millions on the home if it even sells anytime soon. They are apparently OK with that.
Arana is a principal with The Agency, the real estate brokerage that Mauricio Umansky founded in 2011. Umansky, who famously appeared on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, founded the firm in 2011. The company specializes in high-end properties and clientele. Arana recently took to Instagram to share one of his new listings, a sprawling mansion with an asking price of over $33 million. Lopez and Affleck’s property listing has not yet been publicized by Arana.
There are plenty of other clues that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck won’t be together much longer
While we don’t yet have confirmation of a split, the latest house rumors certainly seem to spell doom for Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. The couple took two years to find the perfect property for their family. They stand to lose millions. It would only make sense for them to sell the home if they planned a very permanent split. The house isn’t the only clue that things are headed toward divorce court for the couple. In fact, it’s only the latest and perhaps final clue.
Rumors that the duo had hit a rough patch emerged months ago when they were spotted looking downtrodden together. In May, fans quickly noticed that Affleck appeared to be living away from the family. He and Lopez were both spotted without their wedding rings. Lopez admonished a reporter for asking questions about her marriage the same month. Fans also think Lopez’s decision to cancel a planned tour to spend time with her family makes it clear things between her and Affleck are dire. Still, they have not issued a statement.
