4 Key Questions to Ask Before Selling Your Home During a Divorce

Divorce brings a lot of overwhelming, emotionally draining decisions, and deciding the fate of the family home is one of the hardest. It's more than four walls, it's where a life and often a family were built. It's understandable that this decision is difficult, but making it purely from emotion can carry real consequences.

Hi, I'm Tanja Odzak, Realtor with eXp Realty, a certified real estate divorce specialist, helping people sell and buy homes right here in the East Bay for the last 10 years.

Four questions worth asking early: Will the property be sold, and when? Which spouse stays in the home until it sells? Who covers the mortgage, maintenance, and other costs in the meantime? And if one spouse wants to keep the home as part of the settlement, what does that look like, refinancing, or buying the other spouse out?
