Questions DIvorcing Couples Ask Us About Dividing Their Real Property.

My business partner and I are Certified Real Estate Collaborative Specialists-Divorce (RCS-D) Realtors.  This is a specialized certification that is recognized by CAR (California Assocation of Realtors) and NAR (National Association of Realtors). We specialize in assisting divorcing couples in the division of their real property.

Most divorcing couples have no definitive knowledge of the legal aspects of dividing their homes.  As such, they ask us a myriad of questions about the issues of divorce and real property.  Here are some examples of the questions they ask:

"Do we have to split the property equally between us?"

"If I quitclaim the property to him/her, doesn't that mean that I am no longer responsible for it?"

"How can I keep him/her from getting anything out of the property if I sell it?"

"What if I want to keep the property?"

"What if we owe more for the property than it's worth?"

"Can I qualify to purchase another property?"

"What if we want to rent the property instead of sell it?"

"Can't I keep the house and let him/her have the 401K?"

For answers to these questions (and any others you may have), contact Michele Ashbarry and Debi Purcell, Realty Partners, at (760) 440-9812 or via email at: TheDivorceRealtors@cox.net .  We'll be happy to help!
