Kevin Spacey fights to block his mansion foreclosure sale, claims he is being bullied by buyer

Embattled actor Kevin Spacey’s attorneys are asking a judge to void the sale of his Baltimore mansion, according to a report in the Baltimore Banner.

The “House of Cards” star’s legal team filed papers on Friday, slamming the sale of his waterfront home as a “sham” auction. They claim the sale proceeded with zero warning, a rock-bottom price tag and that the buyer — a Bethesda real estate mogul named Sam Asgari — has been using intimidation tactics to push Spacey out.

“Mr. Asgari’s conduct to date makes clear that he has no intention of complying with the rules applicable to purchasers following a foreclosure sale,” Spacey’s lawyer, Edward U. Lee III, wrote in a court filing obtained by The Post.

Lee alleges Asgari slapped an eviction notice on the property, falsely declaring it “abandoned” to harass Spacey into vacating early.

Even after being informed the home wasn’t abandoned, Lee says, Asgari continued his “bullying and threatening behavior.”

Spacey, who has called the stunning 9,000-square-foot residence in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor home for over seven years, fell behind on his mortgage.

Asgari, of Simo Homes LLC, placed the winning bid of $3.24 million at a July auction — nearly $2 million less than Spacey paid for it.

Now, Spacey wants the Baltimore Circuit Court to block Asgari’s purchase and put the luxury home back on the market, claiming the sale process was flawed and unfair.

But Asgari told the outlet, “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.” He insists Spacey’s claims are “frivolous” and expects them to be thrown out.

Asgari didn’t respond to The Post’s request for comment. Reps for Spacey also didn’t return a request seeking comment.

After a foreclosure auction, the courts must approve the sale before the highest bidder can officially sign the deed. That process often takes months, during which time the ex-homeowner can remain in the property.

But sometimes, a buyer will offer “cash-for-keys” — a payoff for the owner to leave quickly. Asgari had proposed $50,000 to Spacey if he moved out by Sept. 15, according to emails in the court filings. Spacey’s camp countered, suggesting he could stay until February if he didn’t interfere with the sale.

The battle for Spacey’s lavish home comes after a debt collection agency initiated the foreclosure in April 2022. Spacey’s team tried to negotiate in mediation twice but failed to prevent the auction. The actor’s homeowners association had also slapped a lien on the property over unpaid fees.

Lee claims the auction didn’t give the home its due, saying the ad for the sale glossed over key details of the “luxury, waterfront mansion,” which had once been touted as “Baltimore’s most extraordinary home.”

Standing on a pier jutting into the harbor from Federal Hill, the five-story property boasts five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, an elevator, a home theater and a four-car garage.

In the filing, Lee also took issue with Asgari’s media blitz, alleging the investor escalated the pressure with comments to the Baltimore Banner about Spacey “refusing to leave,” which drew a media storm and scrutiny on Spacey’s affairs. According to Lee, Asgari even threatened to go public with Inside Edition and CBS News unless he got an immediate response on the move-out date.

The dwelling became Spacey’s primary residence after Netflix booted him from “House of Cards” over sexual assault allegations.

Spacey, visibly emotional in a recent sit-down with Piers Morgan, confessed he’s “not quite sure where I’m going to live now,” and revealed he’s millions in debt, unable to pay his legal bills and moving his belongings into storage.

Spacey was axed from “House of Cards” and faced a Manhattan lawsuit for allegedly making a sexual advance on a teenager in the 1980s — a claim he’s consistently denied. Jurors sided with Spacey in October 2022, and nine months later, a London jury cleared him of separate sexual assault charges. The star lamented to jurors he hadn’t landed work since the scandal exploded.
