For Pete’s sake.
Pete Davidson is taking more Ls on his real estate moves lately.
The “Saturday Night Live” alum, who is said to have split from girlfriend Elsie Hewitt just five months after the birth of their daughter, has now officially closed on his Staten Island condo at a confirmed $400,000 loss (not including renovations), one day before news of the reported breakup broke.
The Post exclusively revealed in April that Davidson had entered into contract on the apartment and was poised to take a serious hit. Now the numbers are official: the comedian sold the unit on Wednesday, May 13 for $800,000, according to Realtor.com. He paid $1.2 million for it in December 2020 and added extensive renovations, which cost him thousands more.
The original two-bedroom layout was stripped down into a loft-style one-bedroom with an open footprint and bold red accents woven throughout the design. At one point a large fish tank was even built into the walls.
Up in North Salem, his four-bedroom, three-bath Westchester home is still hunting for a buyer, and the price keeps falling.
Davidson originally listed the 6-acre property in September 2025 at $3.5 million. When that went nowhere, he briefly pivoted to renting it at $15,000 a month before pulling it from the rental market and re-listing it for sale at $2,495,000 in February 2026.
By March it had slipped to its current $2,275,000 ask. All told, he has chopped $1.225 million off his original price, according to Page Six.
Davidson has been anything but quiet about how much the North Salem home meant to him. In an interview with Mansion Global, he described the serenity of waking up there as something close to transformative.
“It’s literally like living in paradise. The thing I hated about living in the city all the time was, I would wake up to so much noise, whether it would be garbage being picked up or people fighting or your neighbors or whatever’s going on on the street. In North Salem, I would wake up naturally, and I wouldn’t feel a thing. It was the most special feeling,” he said.
He also credited the discretion of the area for making the move worthwhile.
“What’s cool about North Salem and the whole Westchester area is everyone pretty much keeps to themselves, and I really don’t get bothered up there.”
The property, originally built in 1930 and extensively renovated, is no ordinary country house. It features vaulted ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, a gourmet kitchen, a covered lap pool with a swim jet, a sauna, a wine cellar, a cold plunge, and a detached outbuilding housing a gaming room and gym. Davidson had made it his primary home before he and Hewitt relocated to Brooklyn following the December birth of their daughter, Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson.
Even knowing the sale was inevitable, Davidson approached it with his trademark gallows humor. He joked that he had already had a tough conversation about it with Chad, the lovable dim bulb he played on “SNL.”
“I told Chad we were going to sell it. He’s very upset. You could see it in his eyes. He’s not a man of a lot of words, but in his eyes, you could tell he was sad to go,” Davidson said.
He also confided that he came across the property while looking for a reprieve from the chaos of New York City, and that it had held some of his most meaningful personal moments, including the day Hewitt told him she was pregnant.
The comedian and the model, who have not publicly commented on reports of their split, are said to be focused entirely on their daughter.
Per The Sun, which first reported the breakup, sources close to the pair say co-parenting is the priority. Davidson’s relentless work schedule, which took him to Los Angeles for the Kevin Hart roast on Mother’s Day while Hewitt reportedly spent the holiday alone in Brooklyn, is said to have strained the relationship.
