When you’re managing complex divorce cases, the last thing you need is added stress from unresolved real estate disputes. If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I had a real estate expert to partner with so I could take some of the load off,” you’re not alone. The division of real estate assets in a divorce can drag out cases, increase conflict, and create unnecessary headaches for you and your clients.
That’s where I come in.
I’m Ronda Hopper, and I’m a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE). I’ve been a licensed real estate professional since 2002 and have worked with thousands of clients. Today, my role as a neutral third party is backed by extensive training designed specifically to help family law attorneys like you handle divorce cases that involve real estate, especially high-conflict cases.
What Is a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE)?
A CDRE is a real estate professional trained to handle the complex dynamics that come with divorce-related property sales. We serve as a neutral third party and apply specialized knowledge and systems tailored to the legal and emotional nuances of these transactions.
“Every divorce attorney really should be working with a CDRE,” and here’s why: Less than 1% of all realtors nationwide have earned this certification. It’s not just a title, it’s a commitment to providing excellence, neutrality, and professionalism in real estate transactions during divorce.
3 Ways I Make Your Divorce Cases Easier
Whether you’re working through a relatively peaceful split or representing clients in high-conflict divorces, your plate is already full with legal complexities, timelines, and emotional dynamics. Let me handle the real estate piece. Here are three ways I bring value to your practice:
1. Eliminate Real Estate Headaches and Disputes
Dividing a couple’s biggest asset can quickly turn into a battleground. My expertise allows me to act as a buffer, preventing unnecessary delays and mediating disputes related to the home sale. I approach every case with neutrality and professionalism to ensure decisions are made based on facts, not emotions.
2. Reduce Conflict and Keep Cases Moving Forward
A drawn-out home sale can stall your entire case. I’m trained to diffuse conflict and keep all parties focused on shared goals. With the systems I have in place, I can keep the transaction steady and efficient, so your case doesn’t hit unnecessary roadblocks.
3. Manage the Entire Sale Process from Start to Finish
From valuation and marketing to escrow and close, I manage the entire real estate process for your clients. You can trust that the assets will be handled equitably, thoroughly documented, and resolved professionally, giving your practice a smoother, more seamless path forward.
What Makes My Support Different
When we work together, I’ll walk you and your staff through:
- The training I’ve received
- The free resources I offer
- The systems I’ve developed to ensure client satisfaction and equitable outcomes
You don’t have to become a real estate expert to support your clients through the sale of their home. I’ve already done that for you.
