If you’re going through a divorce and facing the question of what to do with your shared home, you’re not alone. As a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE), I’ve guided countless families through this very decision and I know just how complex and emotional it can be.
You’re likely asking yourself:
- Can I afford to keep the house on my own?
- Will I get what I deserve if we sell?
- What is my spouse going to do?
These aren’t just financial questions. They’re deeply personal ones that can impact your future well-being and stability. That’s exactly why I created “Stay or Sell? A Real Estate Roadmap for Divorce,” a comprehensive guide designed specifically for divorcing homeowners who need help finding clarity and making confident decisions.
Why the Family Home Becomes a Point of Stress in Divorce
When you’re going through a divorce, the home often represents more than just real estate. It’s the place where you built a life, raised children, or put down long-term roots. The idea of selling it or dividing it can feel overwhelming.
On top of that, there’s usually a lot of uncertainty. You might be wondering:
- Where do I even start?
- What is fair?
- How will this affect my finances in the short and long term?
That’s where I come in. I’m Ronda Hopper, and since getting licensed in 2002, I’ve worked with thousands of families. Divorce real estate is not just a niche for me, it’s personal. Before I turned 12, I witnessed two very high-conflict divorces in my immediate family.
That upbringing sparked something in me. Today, I combine that life experience with professional training to help people like you avoid mistakes, reduce conflict, and get through this chapter with clarity and dignity.
