50 has tried to sell the mansion once owned by Mike Tyson for years, but has yet to find a buyer. With his bankruptcy proceedings ongoing and several lawsuits that haven’t gone in his favor, he is now trying to temporarily lease the home.
Rapper 50 Cent, who filed for personal bankruptcy last month, is trying to lease his Connecticut home valued at nearly $8.3 million.
The Hartford Courant reports the disclosure came on Wednesday during a meeting of creditors.
Stephen Savva, a lawyer for 50 Cent, says no deal had been reached to lease the Farmington mansion, which the rapper purchased in 2003.
Court filings show he’s been paying $72,000 a month to maintain the property.
The rapper, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, filed for bankruptcy last month after a New York City jury ordered him to pay $7 million to a woman who said he posted online a sex tape she made with a boyfriend.
According to Daily Mail, 50 hopes the eventual lease and sale will help him pay off some of the creditors.
