Tense Jennifer Lopez house hunts again while M mansion she bought with Ben Affleck languishes on market

Jennifer Lopez is still on the hunt for a new Los Angeles abode — nearly four months after filing for divorce from Ben Affleck.

She and the Oscar-winner, 52, have failed to offload their $68million marital home, which they’ve had on the market for 147 days and counting.

But Lopez — who recently spoke about her ‘resilience’ amid the split — isn’t letting that stop her from moving on.

On Thursday, the singer, 55, was spotted checking out properties in Beverly Hills, which is located just miles away from Affleck’s new $20million bachelor pad in Brentwood.

She was joined by her entourage as they toured three incredible mega mansions that would have more than enough space for her and her 16-year-old twins.

Looking tense, Lopez was noticeably dressed down for her house hunt in baggy blue jeans and a blue flannel shirt.

She paraded around the Los Angeles neighborhoods in chunky tan platform boots.

Lopez carried her belongings in a pricey tan leather Hermes Birkin bag — one of many in her collection. 

As the weather gold chillier, Lopez layered up with a comfy brown cardigan.

The On The Floor hitmaker rocked her signature honey-blonde blowout but opted to go makeup-free for the outing.

She shielded her brown eyes with a pair of designer sunglasses.

Lopez looked to be in the zone as she carefully looked around the three homes with a real estate agent by her side.

And it’s clear that despite no longer having Affleck’s help to foot half the home’s cost, she doesn’t plan on downsizing her opulent lifestyle by much.

All three of the properties she checked out come with sprawling backyards, large pools and more rooms than she’ll know what to do with.

However the couple who were buying the property pulled out of escrow in September, which 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 can 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 TMZ insider claimed that the New Jersey couple were ‘still interested in the property’ but the house is still on market as of December 5.

A source previously told PEOPLE that Affleck and Lopez were not on the same page when they purchased the property in 2023.

‘The $68 million mansion was Ben’s idea and a major compromise for her,’ a source told the outlet.

‘She agreed to it because of its spacious layout, accommodating both their families, a gym and a pickleball court, office space, plus it has two private entrances,’ the insider added, noting how the layout was ideal for accommodating Ben’s children —Violet, 18; Finn, 15; and Samuel, 12 — and JLo’s 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme.

According to the outlet’s source, the ultra-modern aesthetic of the mansion, didn’t exactly align with the style of the Jenny From The Block singer.

‘She loves the romantic, Spanish, European vibe,’ they said.

However, once they settled in, Affleck wasn’t particularly excited about the place either.

The source claimed Affleck found it inconvenient and time-consuming to deal with traffic from the house, as his life and children are based in Brentwood, and he never liked the location.
