Ben Affleck STILL house hunting over a year after Jennifer Lopez split… and is looking near ex Jennifer Garner

Ben Affleck is still house hunting over a year after his split from Jennifer Lopez.

Over the weekend, the 52-year-old actor went out for a stroll with his dog and stopped by a residence during his walk for a home tour.

He was spotted checking out a home under construction in the Brentwood area — near where his ex-wife Jennifer Garner lives with their children — as he continues house hunting after moving out from his former marital mansion with Lopez.

It has been 14 months since the official date of separation that the singer listed on her divorce filing and five months since they finalized their divorce.

On Sunday, the Batman star put on a casual display in a black graphic T-shirt paired with light-wash jeans and Nike sneakers.

His outing comes after he moved to a $20 million pad in the same area after snapping up the property in July 2024.

As he continues shopping for a new place, he was walking with one of his German Shepherds, a security dog he welcomed to his family earlier this year.

Meanwhile, his ex-wife J.Lo started home renovations to the $21 million mansion she snapped up after finalizing her divorce from Affleck after two years of marriage.

The mansion is located in the gated Hidden Hills community where her friends Kim Kardashian as well as Khloe Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kris Jenner reside. 

Last month, DailyMail.com was the first to break the news that Jenny From The Block was re-doing her luxury crib. 

‘Jennifer is renovating the home to her satisfaction,’ an insider told DailyMail.com in May. ‘She is spending a lot of money because it’s big: there is the main house, the pool house and a guest house.’ 

But this is business as usual for the Unstoppable actress. ‘Jennifer renovates every home she moves into because she wants a certain look, the J.Lo touch, which makes the place her very own,’ added the friend. 

‘She has great style so she makes everything better. And she had very specific ideas for this place. Jennifer wants it light, bright and flirty,’ said the source.

It will be a great pad to enjoy the summer months, though she will be out of town often for her world tour.

This comes after he moved to a $20 million pad in the same area after snapping up the property in July 2024. He had been living in a $100K-a-month rental property following his split

Since their split last year, Affleck has been living in a $100,000-a-month rental home in the Brentwood area, just two blocks from Garner and their children. 

Last fall, he moved to a $20 million pad in Brentwood after the five-bedroom mansion closed escrow in July 2024.

He and Lopez have been struggling to sell the $61 million Beverly Hills mansion they purchased together in May 2023. 

Initially attempting an off-market sale, they later publicly listed the 38,000-square-foot mansion for $68 million in July. 

Known as Crestview Manor, the lavish estate includes a 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom main house, a 5,000-square-foot guest penthouse, a two-bedroom guardhouse, a caretaker’s house, and a 12-car garage. 

The property also boasts a home bar, gym, sports lounge, boxing ring, basketball and pickleball courts, and parking for up to 80 vehicles. 

The former couple accepted a $64 million offer from a New Jersey buyer, but the deal fell through in September, leaving the mansion back on the market as of December 2024. 

TMZ reported that while the buyers remain ‘interested,’ the home remains unsold.

After months of speculation about their crumbling marriage, Lopez filed for divorce in August, citing April 26, 2024 as their date of separation.

A source told PEOPLE that Lopez and Affleck weren’t fully aligned when they bought the house. 

‘The $68 million mansion was Ben’s idea and a major compromise for her,’ the insider revealed, noting that its expansive layout was ideal for their blended family. 

However, Lopez reportedly preferred a more romantic, European-inspired aesthetic, while Affleck soon found the home’s location inconvenient for his Brentwood-based life and children.

Lopez and Affleck’s rekindled romance, which began in 2021 after 17 years apart, saw them wed in a whirlwind Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022, followed by a star-studded celebration at Affleck’s Georgia estate.
