Ben Affleck/Lopez: Sale of their $68M marital home hits rock
Ben Affleck and estranged wife Jennifer Lopez's bid to sell their $68million former marital home has hit a devastating road block.
The stars, who are currently working on mediating their ‘tricky’ divorce with lawyer Laura Wasser, bought the home in May 2023 for $60.8million – and had received and accepted a $64 million offer from a couple from New Jersey, per TMZ.
However, the sale of the home is now under threat after the unknown buyers ‘pulled out of escrow’ following a death in their family, MailOnline reports.
When a property falls out of escrow, it means that something went wrong with the sale of the property or some other aspect of the transaction.
Once this happens, the property is no longer under contract and be relisted for sale.
The buyers were said to have fallen ‘in love’ with their 38,000-square-foot mansion, which the former couple listed on Zillow for a staggering $68 million in July.
Despite backing out of an escrow, the insider claimed that the New Jersey couple are ‘still interested in the property.’
