Getting a Divorce and Selling Your House<\/span><\/h1>\n

As a homeowner going through a divorce, you have three options:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Keep the house and leave the title and mortgage as they are<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Transfer the title and mortgage to either one partner or the other (you or your ex)<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Sell the house.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You'll have to ask yourself if either party can afford to keep the house under any scenario.\u00a0 If the answer is no, you must sell<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Unfortunately, this is often the case because one household is now becoming two households<\/strong> and it likely took a combined income to afford the mortgage on the house.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Some factors to keep in mind:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Keeping the house can be accomplished through spousal support, but consider carefully the stability of your ex-spouse<\/strong> to assure this is a doable strategy.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Keeping the house means that the mortgage payment, property taxes, insurance, and maintenance are all payable by you. Will you have enough time and money to rebuild your life<\/strong> or will you be a slave to your house?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
    • Are there too many negative emotions or memories associated with the house?\u00a0 Do you need to start over somewhere fresh?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
    • The mortgage is likely in both of your names, so taking one partner off will require refinancing; can the other partner qualify for the loan?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      You can see it's complicated<\/strong> and there are other factors over and above the ones we've mentioned. Selling your house may be your best option<\/strong> after all is said and done.\u00a0 If that's the case, we're happy to help you through this difficult time.<\/span><\/p>\n
