Divorce & Real Estate
Selling a Home During a Divorce
The Move Live Love TX Team™ is a husband-and-wife real estate team serving Houston and the surrounding areas, helping people sell a home during a divorce, a process they have both been through themselves.
What We Walk You Through
A Neutral Guide, Not a Referee
We don't take sides. Our job is keeping the sale fair, professional, and moving forward for both of you.
The Four Questions About the House
Sell now or later, who stays until it's sold, who covers costs, or does one spouse keep it — we walk through all four with you.
Protecting Your Credit Along the Way
Creditors don't honor divorce decrees. See the steps to keep a joint account — or an ex's missed payment — off your credit.
Understanding Your Net Proceeds
What's actually left after the mortgage and closing costs, how it's split, and when your portion gets released.
What to Have Ready First
You don't need a finished settlement to start — here's the short list that gets our first conversation moving.
Who You're Working With
We're a husband-and-wife team based in The Woodlands — and we've each been through a divorce ourselves. That's not something we lead with, but it's exactly why we approach every divorce sale the way we do: fair, steady, and never taking sides.
Both of us are on every sale. What you tell us stays with us, and nothing about your situation goes into the marketing of the home.
We are real estate agents, not attorneys. For legal questions about your divorce, talk to your attorney. We work alongside them on the sale of the home.
Free, and yours to keep
