Why a cash sale works best during divorce

The Cleanest Way to Divide a Bay Area Home

Fast resolution

A traditional listing takes 60 to 90 days and requires ongoing cooperation between separating spouses. A cash sale closes in 7 to 21 days — both parties receive proceeds and move on quickly.

No showings or staging

Skip strangers walking through your home during an already stressful time. We make one offer based on our assessment — no open houses, no weekend showings.

Clean split of proceeds

Cash proceeds distributed through licensed California escrow per your divorce agreement or court order. Clear, documented, and professional.

We work with both parties

We communicate professionally with both spouses and their attorneys. No pressure tactics, no taking sides — just a fair offer and a smooth process.

Either spouse can reach out initially. We'll explain the process and work with both parties and your attorneys from there.

02

Fair cash offer in 24 hours

03

We handle divorce sales with complete discretion

We understand this is one of the most difficult periods in anyone's life. We don't ask unnecessary questions, we don't take sides, and we treat every seller with respect and professionalism regardless of the circumstances. Our goal is simply to get you both a fair price and a clean close so you can move forward.

Common questions

Divorce Home Sale FAQ

Can I sell the house if my spouse doesn't agree?

Both spouses typically need to agree to sell a jointly owned property in California. If one party refuses, the court can order a partition sale. We recommend working with your family law attorney to understand your specific options. We are happy to work within whatever agreement or court order is in place.

Does the house have to be sold before the divorce is final?

Not necessarily. Some couples sell before finalizing, others after. A California family law attorney can advise on the best timing for your specific situation. We can work on either timeline.

How are the proceeds split at closing?

Proceeds are distributed at closing through a licensed California escrow company per your divorce agreement or court order. The escrow officer follows the legal instructions exactly — ensuring both parties receive their correct share.

What if we both live in the house?

We can work with your timeline and arrange a closing date that gives both parties enough time to make alternative living arrangements. We can also accommodate a brief post-close occupancy period if needed — just ask.
