Divorce is complex. There must be a balance among all the legalities involving the division of assets, and there’s always the emotional toll. In divorce laws, the marital assets, including investments and 401K plans, need a clear legal process to divide them equitably. Also, if the couple bought any property, they’ll have to make the joint decision to sell it—If the parties cannot reach any agreement, a court may order the sale of the property. At Sell2Rent, we offer a unique solution to handle the division of assets in divorce while also addressing the concern of maintaining stability after the process.
Equity's Role in a Divorce
Equity is the value of a home in the market (minus mortgages and any other property debts or liens against the home and homeowners owed). Equity is considered a marital asset, subject to division between the parties. This division depends on the specific circumstances of the divorce and the community property vs. equitable distribution laws in each state.
How Sell2Rent Helps with Marital Asset Division
With our Sell and Move Out program, you can sell your home and transform your shared property into liquid cash that can be divided, achieving a fair division of assets without the complications of the traditional market sale process.
Our Process
-
Initial Consultation. Our process begins by completing a form and scheduling a meeting to discuss your specific situation. We ensure that both parties’ needs and concerns are addressed from the beginning.
-
Property Assessment. We will conduct a thorough assessment of your home to evaluate its value. We will also create a profile on our platform to share with our investors’ network.
-
Investor Matching. You will receive different offers from investors interested in your property. You can evaluate each and select which fits the criteria for both parties.
-
Offer & Leaseback Agreement. Once you have accepted the offer, you have the option to agree to a leaseback arrangement. This can be beneficial if one of the parties wants to continue living in the home while renting it.
-
Equitable Distribution. The sale money will be used to settle any outstanding mortgage, and the rest will be divided according to the divorce agreement or court order, simplifying the division of assets.
Legal & Financial Considerations
Be aware that hiding assets might result in penalties. We recommend hiring a legal and financial assessment to learn how to split your assets, including your home, 401K plans, or stocks. Our business model eases a transparent and equitable transaction, reducing any potential conflicts.
Our modern solution can transform how couples tackle this complex issue, turning the property from a point of contention into a source of stability. While we address the practicalities of property division, we also support the emotional well-being of both parties. For more details on how we can assist in your specific situation, visit Sell2Rent.
