Can We Sell Our Roswell 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 Roswell and Chaves County, New Mexico. You can talk with us about the house before arranging repairs, contractors, or public showings.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to tell us what is happening with the house.
Avoid repairs, contractors, and public showings
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 without first agreeing on a repair list, finding contractors, or arranging public showings.
Who can sign? The deed and any court order matter
The deed shows whose names are on the house. A divorce order may also say how the house is to be handled or whether a sale can go ahead.
We work with the title company on the closing papers. A New Mexico family-law attorney can explain what an order means for you. Not sure? Call us — we'll sort it out with you.
Bring us the problem before everything is settled
You do not have to settle every disagreement before you call. Tell us what is making a regular sale difficult, whether it is timing, repairs, access, or something else. We can talk through the house with you.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form above.
What happens next
You can contact us while you are still working through the details. We talk about the house, put the offer and terms in writing before you commit, and close through a title company.
1. Tell us about the house

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
