Can We Sell Our Erlanger House During a Divorce?
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
Yes. We buy houses as-is in Erlanger and Kenton County. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can talk with us while questions about ownership and court orders are still being worked through.
Call 888-274-5006 or tell us about the house in the form.
Skip repair and showing logistics
You can talk about the house as it is instead of getting repair bids or lining up contractors first. A regular listing can mean preparing the home and coordinating showing times around two schedules. We can discuss a visit to look at the property.
Who can sign the sale papers?
The deed recorded in Kenton County shows whose names are listed as owners. Kentucky law lets a divorce court classify property as marital or nonmarital and divide marital property; a court order may address the house or sale proceeds.
The title company can review the deed and any court order to identify the papers and signatures needed for the sale. A Kentucky family-law attorney can explain what an order means for you. Not sure? Call us — we'll sort it out with you.
Kentucky Revised Statutes § 403.190 — disposition of property explains how a divorce court classifies and divides property.
