Can We Sell Our Pickerington 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 Pickerington and Fairfield County, Ohio. You can talk with us about a sale before every disagreement is settled.
Call 888-274-5006. We answer 24/7 at 888-274-5006.
Take repairs and contractors off the list
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
You do not need to line up repair estimates or contractors before talking with us. If the house, access, or showing arrangements are part of the disagreement, tell us what is getting in the way and we can discuss a sale as it stands.
Who can sign the sale papers?
The deed names the current owner or owners. In Ohio, a divorce court can classify property as marital or separate and divide marital property under Ohio Revised Code §3105.171. A court order about the house may affect the sale.
We can review the deed and any court papers with the title company and talk through the documents and signatures needed for the sale. An Ohio family-law attorney can explain what an order means for your rights.
