Ellen DeGeneres, Portia de Rossi Prepared to Take Bath on Bel Aire Mansion
Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, are trying to sell what are believed to be one of their last remaining homes in the United States after their recent move from California to the United Kingdom. However, according to Kelsi Karruli of Market Watch, the attempted sale of one of their homes that was originally purchased for $29 million in 2022 hasn't gone according to plan. The home is located in Bel Aire and was originally put on the market back in May of 2024 but has since been delisted twice after failing to sell. The first re-listing saw a drop in asking price from $33.9 million to $29.9 million, a reduction of $4 million. Then, the house was re-listed once again after being taken down for a second time last month and now has an asking price of $28.5 million, which is a whopping $5.4 million lower than the initial asking price. If sold at that price, DeGeneres and de Rossi would be taking a loss of $500,000. It hasn't been all bad for DeGeneres and de Rossi, though, as they were able to make a more than $200,000 profit on a two-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Montecito, California, that sold for $5.2 million following the couple initially buying it for $4.99 million.
