For divorcing homeowners

Clarity about your home and your next steps.

Understand the real estate considerations involved in selling or retaining a home during divorce, with careful attention to timing, communication, and the terms of any applicable court orders.

Why specialized representation matters

Why choose a CDRE instead of a friend, family member, or familiar REALTOR®?

It's natural to turn to someone you know and trust. But selling a home during divorce can involve more than pricing, photography, and finding a buyer. The real estate process may also need to account for two parties, attorneys, court-ordered deadlines, access to the home, and sensitive communication.

Specialized divorce real estate training

As a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE), I bring training focused on the unique real estate issues that can arise during divorce, in addition to my experience as a REALTOR®.

A neutral, professional approach

When appropriate to the engagement, I work to keep property-related communication factual, organized, and focused on the transaction—not personal disagreements or taking sides.

Coordination with your legal team

Divorce-related sales may involve attorneys, mediators, written agreements, or court orders. I can coordinate real estate information and transaction steps with the professionals involved, within my role.

Clear boundaries when relationships are complicated

A friend or family acquaintance may be an excellent agent, but personal relationships can create added pressure or concerns about perceived favoritism. Specialized, arm's-length representation can help maintain professional boundaries.

A trusted REALTOR® may be fully capable of handling a sale. The difference is whether the agent has the specialized preparation, processes, and independence your particular situation requires. A CDRE designation does not guarantee an outcome or replace your attorney's advice.
