Selling Through Divorce
Life transitions like relocating cities, divorce, or moving into a senior community go far beyond buying or selling a home — they’re deeply personal and emotional journeys. These moments require more than just market expertise. I tailor my approach with empathy, clear communication, and guidance that’s sensitive to your unique circumstances. With confidence and care, we’ll navigate both the practical and emotional sides of your move.
SENIORS
Making the move to a senior living community can feel overwhelming, and oftentimes has multiple family members involved. That’s where having an expert, neutral voice makes a difference.
I specialize in helping seniors navigate this important transition with care, frequent communication, and thoughtful support.
Senior Resources
Transitioning into a senior living community can be complex and challenging. That's why it makes sense to turn to an expert to guide you through each step. Not only am I a full-service, experienced Realtor who can assist you with selling, but I offer value-added resources to help make your next move your best move yet.
A FREE home cleaning in advance of your listing!
A free, no-obligation meeting at your home to review your timeline, goals, and preparing your home for the market.
Connecting you with our estate sale consultant and/or decluttering services.
Referrals and coordination of home repairs with trusted contractors
A FREE staging consultation to ensure your home can compete (According to BankRate.com, 85% of staged homes fetched offers between 5 percent and 23 percent over list price!)
Once the home is ready for the market, we implement a thoughtful marketing plan which includes professional photography, print advertising, social media advertising, open houses, and more. I am there every step of the way.
Lastly, we partner with a senior moving company in STL if you or your loved one needs assistance settling into the new community.

SELLING THROUGH DIVORCE
If I buy a new house before the divorce is done, can the court divide the new house?

I’m experienced in working with couples navigating this challenging time, and I’ve personally gone through a divorce and witnessed the complications that can arise when handling multiple real estate transactions amidst a marital separation. I can help alleviate stress by serving as your neutral, steady guide—managing the details, minimizing conflict, and keeping the process moving forward so you can focus on your next chapter.
Buying and/or selling a house during a divorce can have unintended consequences. There are several things to consider, including:
How will the court divide the proceeds from the sale of the house?
Do I need my spouse’s permission to sell the house?
What is a Marital Waiver and should I sign one?
Here are some steps I take to reduce stress on you as much as possible:
I will create an environment of trust and safe ground throughout this journey.
Sellers can be communicated with completely separately, if needed.
I will gather any estimates from contractors and coordinate repairs, to limit the number of times either party must meet at the home.
Separate closing times can be scheduled
