Can We Sell Our Georgetown 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 Georgetown and Scott County, Kentucky. You can talk with us before you have settled every practical question about the house, access, or timing. We can look at the property and talk through the deed and any court papers with you.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to tell us what is happening with the house.
Skip repair, contractor, and showing coordination
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
You do not have to line up repair contractors or prepare the house for a listing before talking with us. Tell us about access and the schedules you are working around, and we can discuss a property visit with you.
Who can sign for the Georgetown house?
Start with the deed: it shows whose names are on title. Kentucky courts can classify property as marital or nonmarital and divide marital property, so a divorce order about the house may affect the sale or how the proceeds are handled. See Kentucky Revised Statutes § 403.190 for the state rule.
We review the deed and any court order with the title company to work out the papers and signatures needed for this sale. A Kentucky family-law attorney can explain how an order applies to your situation. Not sure what papers you have? Call us — we will sort it out with you.

What our sellers say
“My divorce was already complicated enough. The last thing I needed was months of showings and price negotiation fights with my ex. We both agreed to a cash sale, and USA Home Buyers made it simple. Offer in 24 hours, closed in 10 days. Proceeds split at closing, done.”
