If getting a home prepped and ready to sell is a challenge normally, it can seem nearly unachievable during a divorce. Monica O’Neal, a Boston-based clinical psychologist and relationship expert, said, “The selling of homes during divorces comes up quite a bit. The home is emblematic of loss of marriage or feeling of helplessness."
In this excellent article, Megan Johnson offers a number of key things to keep in mind if you’re considering selling your home during a divorce:
- Align your goals.
- Timing is everything.
- Settle on the maintenance.
- The agent matters.
- Understand the tax implications.
- Your agent is not your friend.
- Your children can handle moving.
- Do not use the house as leverage.
- Focus on the future.
