On the day Jennifer Lopez completed the sale of her condo, Ben Affleck closed on the purchase of his home
Jennifer Lopez completed the sale of her New York City condo on the same day that Ben Affleck closed escrow on his new $20.5 million Los Angeles home.
According to PEOPLE, both transactions took place on Wednesday, July 24, which is also Lopez’s birthday.
Affleck, 51, bought the five-bedroom Los Angeles property a few days after he and Lopez, 55, put their Beverly Hills residence up for public auction on Thursday, July 11, for $68,000,000.
The pair tried to sell the 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom house off-market after they bought it in May 2023 for $60,850,000.
In the meantime, Lopez’s $23 million penthouse in New York City, a four-bedroom, 7.5-bath duplex, found a buyer this spring after going up and down for seven years. The purchase closed on July 24.
The pair is spending time apart at the time of the real estate deals. While Affleck stayed in California, Lopez celebrated her milestone birthday in New York.
On Saturday, July 20, Lopez celebrated her birthday with a Bridgerton-themed party in the Hamptons.
Several attendees, including Lopez’s mother Guadalupe Rodríguez, were seen arriving to the celebrations, but Affleck was not among them, according to multiple sources who spoke with PEOPLE.
The majority of the actor’s summer has been devoted to the Los Angeles run of The Accountant 2.
He and Lopez have continued to spend time apart on different coasts even after the movie’s filming concluded, particularly over their two-year wedding anniversary and the Fourth of July holiday.
Lopez has been spotted riding bikes, going to the gym, and hanging out with Affleck’s 18-year-old daughter Violet while she is visiting the East Coast.
