One of the most emotional and financially complex decisions in divorce is what to do with the marital home. This property often represents security, stability, and normalcy—especially with children involved. However, the decision to keep or sell the marital home comes with significant financial and legal implications that many people, and even attorneys, may overlook.

In this episode, we’ll explore the pros and cons of keeping the marital home, the risks of co-owning after divorce, and the challenges of selling or buying out a spouse’s share. We'll also discuss what the monied spouse should consider in a buyout, financial hurdles for the lesser-monied spouse, and key mortgage considerations. Plus, we'll touch on the role of alimony, child support, and how high interest rates impact real estate decisions in divorce.
