A shared home is often one of the largest financial assets a couple owns, and deciding what happens to it can be one of the most complicated parts of a separation.
One person may want to stay. Both may want to sell. There may be questions about value, timing, mortgages, improvements, expenses and where each person will live next.
Our role is to provide clear, professional real estate advice so you can understand the options surrounding the property and make informed decisions.
A neutral, professional approach
When we are engaged to sell a jointly owned property, our responsibility is to the successful sale of the home.
We establish a clear process for communication, pricing, preparing the property, reviewing offers and making decisions so that everyone understands what is happening and what comes next.
Where legal, tax or financial advice is required, we work alongside the appropriate professionals while remaining focused on the real estate transaction.
How We Help
We can help with
- Establishing the current market value of the home
- Understanding the potential proceeds from a sale
- Evaluating selling versus one owner purchasing the other's interest
- Developing a preparation and listing strategy
- Coordinating repairs and staging
- Establishing a clear communication process
- Marketing and selling the property
- Helping one or both parties find their next home
- Coordinating with lawyers, mediators, mortgage professionals and financial advisors where appropriate
Start with the property
You don't need to have every aspect of your separation resolved before understanding your real estate options. Knowing what the home may be worth and what a sale could look like can provide useful information for the decisions ahead.
