I was married seven years to my husband and we had a nice house in Jacksonville, Florida.
We had done serious updates to the place like the kitchen, master bathroom, living room, and bedrooms. We painted the exterior, maintained the bushes, and even added an above ground pool. The place was very nice. When we decided to get divorced it was tough on what to do with the house. We both kind of felt like we were getting the short end of the stick if the other one got the house. The right move was to sell it. However, when selling a property it can take a long time. There is a lot of haggling between the buyer and seller. Now factor in two sellers that would prefer not speak to each other. It made the most sense to just look for a Jax real estate buyer that does cash for properties. A Florida home buyer that does cash deals was so much quicker and less messy. You literally have to meet with them once in person or just email. Then you decide a number, say yes, and that is it. My ex and I only had to coordinate a few hours before our house was sold. We split the money 50/50 and the rest was all little stuff that wasn’t a big deal. Getting a divorce is never easy emotionally. When you factor in finances and assets, you need to make it as streamlined as possible. You don’t want to drag the process out.
