Kevin Spacey‘s beleaguered former condo in Baltimore has now been put on the rental market—after failing to attract a buyer in the wake of a bitter foreclosure battle between the actor and its latest owner.
Spacey, 65, was forced to leave his longtime home after making a last-ditch attempt to block its foreclosure sale, during which he accused its buyer of “bullying and threatening” him.
The Hollywood heavyweight became embroiled in a bitter legal tussle with real estate investor Sam Asgari, who purchased the condo for $3.24 million in a minutes-long foreclosure auction in July 2024.
Weeks later, Asgari came forward to accuse Spacey of refusing to vacate the property—only for the “House of Cards” actor to hit back with his own allegations that Asgari had failed to “comply with the rules applicable to purchasers following a foreclosure sale.”
That quarrel seemingly came to an end in February when the property was listed for $5.99 million, suggesting that Spacey had vacated the dwelling, leaving it free to find a new owner.

Yet that process would not prove to be easy. After three months on the market, the price of the dwelling was slashed by $1 million—only to undergo an additional $500,000 price cut six weeks later.
Now, it seems Asgari is eager to try his luck on the rental market, making the dwelling available for long-term lease at $35,000 a month.
The property is understood to have first been purchased by Spacey for $5.65 million in 2017, the same year he was first accused of sexual misconduct.
At the time, representatives for the actor strongly denied that he had bought the home, with his then-manager, Evan Lowenstein, claiming that the condo belonged to him and not his client.
However, when the property ended up on the auction block, Spacey’s identity as its true owner was confirmed.
The impressive five-story abode, which is in the exclusive Pier Homes at the Harborview community, sits at the end of a pier and provides stunning views across the harbor.
It is a combination of two townhouses and features six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and three half-baths.

Other amenities include a home theater, sauna, elevator, billiard room, and chef’s kitchen. Multiple decks, including a 76-foot roof deck with a spa, offer residents the chance to enjoy panoramic views of the area.
The home is also equipped with a four-car garage.
Although the property disputes have seemingly come to an end, the lavish condo was previously at the center of real estate arguments.
Just under a year ago, the actor’s legal team accused the real estate investor of using “intimidation” tactics to try to force Spacey out of the home. They allege that Asgari falsely declared the property as “abandoned” while posting an eviction notice in an attempt to make the actor leave.
Spacey’s lawyer, Edward U. Lee III, wrote in the filing that Asgari used the notice as a means of “harassing and coercing” his client to move out before he is legally required to do so, the Baltimore Banner reported.
However, Asgari has been quick to hit back at Spacey and his team, telling the Banner in a phone call: “The exceptions filed have no merit, and they’re designed to buy time on our expense, to live in the property for free, and to smear the buyer.
“The trustee and us will file in opposition, and we strongly believe that their claims are frivolous and will be denied.”

According to the Banner, Asgari paid a $100,000 deposit on the home after placing his winning bid in the auction—which took place on July 25 on the steps of the Baltimore Circuit Court and lasted just 15 minutes.
Foreclosure auction terms in the state of Maryland require a sale to be ratified by the court, a process that can take 30 days. After ratification is complete, the legal title officially passes to the buyer, who must then pay the full sum agreed at auction within 10 days, as well as any additional taxes, interest, and penalties.
Failure to pay can open the buyer up to a lawsuit by the county.
Should the home’s previous occupant refuse to leave, the buyer can pursue legal action to evict him; however, in most cases, the resident chooses to willingly vacate the home.
In May 2022, Spacey was charged with four counts of sexual assault in the United Kingdom. He faced a judge at court in June 2022 and was then found not guilty of all charges in July 2023.
Although he was acquitted of all charges, Spacey confessed that he still owed “a lot of legal bills that he has been unable to pay,” while speaking to Piers Morgan earlier this year.
