Kevin Spacey is allegedly “refusing to leave” his $5.6 million Baltimore condominium unit, weeks after the lavish property was sold off in a foreclosure auction.

The 65-year-old actor revealed in June that he was being forced to sell off the 9,000-square-foot apartment at the end of July in a bid to help cover the hefty legal fees from his 2023 sexual-assault trial.

He was ultimately acquitted of all charges, but earlier this year he tearfully told talk-show host Piers Morgan that the court battle had drained his finances, admitting: “I still owe a lot of legal bills that I have not been able to pay.”

Spacey’s home was put on the auction block in late July, and it was purchased for $3,240,000 by real-estate investor Sam Asgari. At the time, Asgari’s identity was not made public, with reports indicating that it had been bought by an “anonymous” businessman.

However, Asgari has now revealed himself as the buyer — and has come forward to accuse Spacey of “refusing” to vacate the Baltimore apartment, claiming the actor has requested that he be allowed to remain in the property for another six months, rent-free.

“Right now, he’s refusing to leave,” Asgari said, according to the Baltimore Banner. “He’s asking for six months to leave the property without paying anything.”

Realtor.com has contacted Spacey’s spokesperson for comment, and one of his lawyers, Edward U. Lee III, denied Asgari’s allegations in an email sent to the Baltimore Banner, saying only: “The accusation by Mr. Asgari is false.”

The property at the center of this latest controversy is understood to have been purchased by Spacey for $5,650,000 in 2017, the 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 unit belonged to him and not his client.
