Navigating Divorce and Mortgages: Why Consulting Your Mortgage Lender Is Crucial
Going through a divorce can be one of the most challenging experiences in life. Amidst the emotional turmoil and legal complexities, it’s crucial not to overlook the impact of divorce on your mortgage and homeownership. At BrightSide Lending, we understand the unique challenges divorcing couples face when it comes to their mortgage, and we’re here to provide expert guidance every step of the way. Let’s explore why consulting your mortgage lender is just as important as consulting an attorney during divorce proceedings.
Understanding Your Mortgage Situation:
When going through a divorce, it’s essential to have a clear understanding of your mortgage situation. This includes knowing the terms of your existing mortgage, the equity in your home, and any joint financial obligations you and your spouse may have. Consulting your mortgage lender can help shed light on these matters and provide valuable insights into your options moving forward as you work on the settlement of your divorce.
Exploring Your Options:
Divorce often involves decisions regarding the marital home, such as whether to sell the property, refinance the mortgage, or buy out your ex-spouse’s equity. As experienced mortgage professionals, we can help you explore these options and determine the best course of action based on your individual circumstances.
Keeping the Marital Home:
Many divorcing couples wish to keep the marital home, either for sentimental reasons or to provide stability for children. If you’re considering this option, we can help you assess whether you qualify to refinance the mortgage in your name only or buy out your ex-spouse’s equity in the property. We’ll guide you through the refinancing process and ensure you understand the financial implications of keeping the home.
Selling and Buying a New Home:
Alternatively, selling the marital home and purchasing a new one may be the best option for starting fresh post-divorce. We can help you navigate the process of selling and buying a new home. We work with a large network of trusted realtors in the area that will help you price and market your home, while we team up to help you secure the best financing for your new home.
