So you want to keep the house in your divorce? You’re not alone. The marital home and what is going to happen with it is one of the first questions soon-to-be-divorced couples ask when meeting with a divorce attorney or professional. The home is often one of the biggest assets and the mortgage is one of the biggest debts of divorce.

In this episode, Susan and Tami explore solutions around the marital home, discuss some of the things you need to consider before keeping it, what you need to know about lending options, and other difficulties or situations that may arise. 

Tami Wollensak is a licensed mortgage loan originator and a 25+ year veteran of the industry, she has experience working in multiple roles and facets of the industry. She has discovered her true passion in helping divorcing individuals navigate their home equity solutions while going through the most challenging time of their life.
