Selling the marital home, cleanly.
Divorce is hard enough without the sale of the marital home dragging out for six months. Traditional listings mean showings to coordinate around two people who may not be living together anymore, repairs both parties have to agree to fund, and the constant risk of a buyer's financing falling apart at the last minute, sending everyone back to square one.
A cash sale solves most of that. One offer, one closing date, one number to split. Both parties know exactly what's happening and when. We work professionally with attorneys on both sides if that's helpful, and we deliver the cash to the title company on the scheduled date so the proceeds can be split according to the divorce agreement.
Why a cash sale works during divorce
- Defined timeline. A close date you can put in a calendar and a settlement agreement, not "whenever a buyer shows up"
- No showings to coordinate. Especially valuable when one party has already moved out
- No repair negotiation. We take the house as-is, no list of fixes for the parties to fight over
- No financing risk. Cash close means no surprise at the eleventh hour
- Discretion. No sign in the yard, no MLS listing, no neighbors knowing
- Clean math. One offer, one closing cost (we cover the standard costs), one number to divide
Working with attorneys
If both attorneys are involved, that's normal and welcome. We can route the contract for review, communicate through counsel, and close on a date the settlement agreement specifies. We've done this often enough that the process is familiar to us.
If only one spouse wants to sell
If you're at the stage where one party wants to sell and the other is undecided, we can still have a conversation. We can deliver a written cash offer with a defined window, which both parties can take to their attorneys. Sometimes seeing a real number on paper helps move the conversation forward.
