TOKYO (AFP): Jackie Chan’s two luxury Beijing apartments are seized and will be put up for auction due to an ownership dispute for around US$10 million.
Chan and his wife Joan Lin and son Jaycee Chan have lived in the high-end condos, which cover more than 1,200 square metres (13,000 square feet) with a market value of nearly $14.6 million, in the Chinese capital since 2007.
However, a legal dispute between two real estate firms has resulted in the properties being commandeered and put up for sale, despite appeals by the star.
According to media reports, the apartments have a combined area of 1,217 m2 (approx. 13,100 sq ft), six bedrooms and three living areas.
Jackie Chan is understood to have paid some $4.9 million for the pair after doing some promotional work for the developer Yujia Real Estate.
The apartments are reportedly being claimed as Yujia-owned assets in a dispute over payments between Yujia and another developer Tenhong Real Estate.
