Why Selling Your Home During Divorce Requires More Than Just Any Realtor

Going through a divorce comes with enough emotional weight as it is, but when you add in the stress of selling a shared family home, the process can begin to feel overwhelming, even impossible.

You might be asking yourself, “How in the world am I going to make rational decisions when I’m feeling so much turmoil?” Or maybe your spouse is being uncooperative and you’re wondering, “Is there even a real estate agent who can help in a situation like this?”

I’m Ronda Hopper, and I want you to know you’re not alone, and yes, there is help.

What Makes Divorce Real Estate Sales Different?

Selling a home during divorce is not like a traditional real estate sale. Some factors make the process more complex and sensitive:

  • You may have a court order or legal timelines that affect the sale.
  • Communication between spouses is often strained or nonexistent.
  • There is emotional attachment to the home—your memories, your children, your life as it once was.

When these complexities collide, it’s essential that you have someone on your side who understands both real estate and the emotional dynamics of divorce.

Why You Need a Neutral Expert in Your Corner

As a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE), my role is to act as a neutral third party to help both spouses navigate the process fairly and efficiently.

Unlike a traditional agent, I’m trained to remain unbiased and keep the process professional. “When you work with me, whether you have an attorney or not, I bring a systematic approach to ensure fairness to both parties during the entire selling process.”

I understand what you’re going through—not just professionally, but personally. I grew up witnessing two high-conflict divorces before I was 12 years old. That experience shaped the empathetic and patient way I approach every situation.

What a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert Brings to the Table

Most people don’t realize this, but less than 1% of real estate agents nationwide hold the CDRE certification. That expertise matters, especially when your home is likely your most valuable asset.

Here’s what you can expect when working with me:

  • Unbiased Representation: I don’t take sides. My priority is to ensure fairness and comply with all applicable legal guidelines and court orders.
  • Skilled Negotiation: I work to negotiate the absolute best possible terms while keeping both parties informed and treated fairly.
  • Higher-Conflict Experience: I’ve worked with thousands of families since 2002 and have built a unique ability to manage even the most emotionally charged situations.
  • Streamlined Process: My system keeps things moving—no unnecessary delays, no hidden surprises.

Reduce the Stress of Divorce by Partnering with a CDRE

“Imagine having someone by your side who’s invested in helping you through the process so that you can move on to your next chapter.” That’s what I offer.

If you’re like many of my clients, you simply want to get through this chapter with as little chaos as possible, while walking away with your rightful share of the home’s equity.

My services are perfect for:

  • Divorcing homeowners looking for fairness
  • Families with real estate assets that need to be divided
  • Spouses seeking a professional buffer for smoother communication
  • Individuals without legal representation who still need expert guidance
