Lopez is frustrated as her Beverly Hills mansion remains unsold, with painful memories of her ex-husband Ben Affleck lingering
Jennifer Lopez‘s $68 million Beverly Hills mansion is causing her mounting frustration as it sits unsold despite months on the market and several renovations. The 38,000-square-foot property, which includes 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms, has failed to attract a buyer, leaving Lopez eager to move on from the memories of her ex-husband, Ben Affleck.
A source told InTouch Weekly that Lopez is growing increasingly disheartened by the house’s inability to sell. “She can’t wait to get the hell out of the house when she can,” the insider said, explaining how Lopez hoped the mansion would sell quickly after personal renovations, but nothing has happened. Despite the house’s high price and luxurious features, it has yet to attract a suitable buyer.

She walks around the house and feels all the bad memories,” the source revealed. It’s clear that the house, once shared with Affleck, has become a painful reminder of their short-lived marriage, which ended in August 2024 after two years.
The couple purchased the sprawling mansion in May 2023, but by July, the property was listed for sale following their separation. Affleck moved out, purchasing a new $20 million home in Pacific Palisades, while Lopez filed for divorce shortly thereafter. The mansion, with its extensive amenities, including five acres of land, has become an emotional burden for Lopez as she seeks closure from her past with Affleck.
Despite her efforts to make the house her own with renovations, Lopez cannot shake the lingering memories of her ex-husband, with the property serving as a constant reminder of their marriage. “Not even her weird voodoo magic has helped,” the source humorously added, suggesting that Lopez has tried various methods to rid herself of the emotional imprint the house carries.
Lopez’s desire to move on is clear, but the house continues to be an obstacle, as it remains stuck on the market with no buyers in sight.
