Video Summary
How is a home calculated in a divorce proceeding? Well, I don’t handle divorces and so it’s my understanding that whenever the parties have filed an action for divorce, the judge takes into consideration that each party’s circumstances how the home is titled whether or not there’s any children, and then they make a decision as to whether or not the mother or the father, whoever has custody of the children or the primary custody, can remain in the house until the children reach a particular age and then direct the property to be sold. They can also direct the property be sold if there’s no other consideration. They take in consideration the other assets and based upon all of that, the judge then makes the decision as to whom receives the marital home or whether or not they simply each own a half interest and they’re then in a position to sell the property or provide special equity or so much to one spouse once the house is sold. But that’s falls within the jurisdiction and the decisions of the divorce attorney. So you don’t need to call me, but I’ll give you my phone number. You need to talk to your divorce lawyer in order for them to explain how this is going to work in your individual circumstance. Give me a call at (727) 847-2288.
