Jay-Z and Beyonce Scoping Out Ricky Martin in Miami Beach House Hunt

Ricky Martins 12 million dollar homeJay-Z and Beyonce went mansion-hunting last week in Miami Beach -- and one of the SUPER-EXPENSIVE homes they checked out belongs to one Señor Ricardo Martin ... TMZ has learned.

We confirmed with the realtor that J&B took a walk-through the 9,491 square-foot ocean-front pad  last week -- but it's unclear if the couple is interested in making an offer.

According to official records, Ricky's trying to score a hefty profit on the estate -- because he bought it in 2005 for $10,000,000 .. and now he's listed the house at $12.5 mil.

The place is pretty sick -- boasting 7 beds, 10 baths, a swimming pool ... and it's located in one of the ritziest parts of Miami Beach, close to Miami Heat superstars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.

As for Ricky, neighbors tell us he was a great neighbor -- and they're sad to see him leave.

And how many mansions do they already own in NY and LA?

It must be nice to be a drop-out drug-dealing violent gang member and his drop-out whore

Think of all the help you would need to
keep it clean..
I dislike people doing chores for me.
I would have to do everything over again, just
to make sure it was done the right way....

is it possible there is a surrogate involved in the
'baby makes three" senario. With all the talk about a fake belly and boobs, let alone the big change in due date. Could be an bun in someone elses oven doing the bakin'.

As long as the new pad will have a room where Beyonce can hook up her man football cheese laden thighs and cottage cheese can to a fat sucking machine then the crib will be all good

Good for them. Coming from an industry that profits from consumers that are uneducated and spend their hard earned money so they can enjoy their lifestyle. Amazing America, there are people with good intentions trying to live their daily lives with nothing. Bravo!!!

America is a culture that feeds into sensationalism. Your country is in an enormous deficit and you find the time to pay the Kardashian's and the like over close to billions of dollars?
