When a couple splits up, there are a lot of things to take into consideration. One of the most important is what will happen with the mortgage. If both parties can’t or don’t want to keep the mortgage, there are a few options available. In this blog post, we will discuss those options and help you decide which one is best for you.
What options are there?
One option is to sell the house and split the proceeds. This can be a good option if you are able to sell quickly and for a good price. It can also be a good option if you are not able to afford the mortgage on your own. If you do sell, be sure to consult with a real estate agent to get the best price possible.
Another option is to keep the house and have one person buy out the other’s share. This can be a good option if you are able to afford the mortgage on your own and don’t want to sell the house. It can also be a good option if you think the housing market is going to rebound soon and you will be able to sell for a profit down the road. If you do keep the house, be sure to have a lawyer draw up an agreement so that there is no confusion about who owns what.
The last option is to simply walk away from the mortgage and let the bank foreclose on the property. This should only be considered as a last resort as it will have a negative impact on your credit score. If you do decide to go this route, be sure to consult with a lawyer so that you understand all of the implications.
No matter what option you choose, be sure to consult with a financial advisor to make sure it is the best decision for you. With such an important decision, you want to be sure that you are making the best choice for your future.
