Real Estate & Mortgage Pitfalls To Avoid During Divorce
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
🏠Divorce + the family home can be a financial minefield.
In this episode of Divorce Explained, we’re joined by Kelly Lise Murray, J.D., Harvard-educated attorney, legal scholar, and founder of DivorceThisHouse.com, to unpack the real estate and mortgage pitfalls divorcing spouses need to avoid.
From confusing the deed vs. the mortgage, to the danger of “the twelfth of never” (no deadlines, no enforcement), Kelly Lise explains how people make permanent, costly mistakes with their homes during divorce, often without realizing it.
💡 Key takeaway: the house is one of the most emotionally charged and financially dangerous assets in a divorce. Whether you’re selling or one spouse wants to keep it, due diligence, deadlines, and the right professional team are essential.
If you’re navigating divorce, or advising clients who are, this conversation is a must-listen.
