Can We Sell Our Mount Pleasant 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. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in the Village of Mount Pleasant and Racine County, Wisconsin. You can talk with us before every disagreement is settled. We can review the house and sale papers with the title company and work through what the closing needs.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to tell us what is happening with the house.
Skip repairs, contractor schedules, and listing-showing coordination
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
You can talk with us about a direct sale instead of arranging repair work, contractor visits, and a public listing schedule. Tell us what is difficult about coordinating access or timing.
Who can sign? Start with the deed and any court papers
If the house is your Wisconsin homestead, both spouses generally sign the sale papers, even if only one spouse is named on the deed. Wisconsin also has marital-property rules, and a divorce agreement or court order about the house can affect the sale. We can review the deed and sale papers with the title company; a Wisconsin family-law attorney can explain what an order means for you. See Wisconsin homestead signature law, Wisconsin marital-property law, and Wisconsin divorce property-division law.
Bring us the part that is stuck
If you disagree about repairs, contractors, access, or timing, tell us what is making a regular sale difficult. You can call before every issue is settled; we can talk through the house and a direct sale with you.
