Divorce is never easy. Emotions are high, decisions are heavy, and the future can feel uncertain — especially when real estate is involved. As someone who has personally gone through a divorce, I understand just how overwhelming this chapter can be.
That’s why I’ve taken the next step in my real estate career and earned the designation of Certified Divorce Real Estate Specialist (CDRE). This specialized training allows me to support clients with the clarity, neutrality, and legal understanding needed to navigate real estate during a separation or divorce.
🏡 How I Can Help
When real estate is part of the divorce process, things can get complicated quickly. I serve as a neutral third-party expert who understands both the emotional and financial stakes. I work alongside attorneys, mediators, and financial advisors to help ensure the best possible outcome.
I can help with:
- Valuing and preparing the home for sale
- Facilitating communication between both parties
- Coordinating with divorce attorneys and mediators
- Providing clear, unbiased guidance throughout the process
- Helping one party refinance or buy out the other if needed
- Planning next steps — whether that’s downsizing, relocating, or starting fresh
🤝 Why Work with a Certified Divorce Real Estate Specialist?
Most real estate agents are not trained in the unique challenges that arise during divorce. As a CDRE, I bring not just market knowledge, but the emotional intelligence and strategic approach necessary to guide both parties through one of the biggest financial decisions they’ll make post-divorce.
This isn’t just business. It’s personal. I’ve been there — and I know how much it helps to have someone steady, trustworthy, and informed by your side.
