St. Paul Park · Divorce Sale

Selling a St. Paul Park Home During a Divorce

A calm, neutral sale when two owners need to agree, with the same information shared with both of you.

A fair sale in St. Paul Park

In a small city, privacy matters. I'm Lesley, a REALTOR® with Bridge Realty, and we keep the reason for your sale out of the marketing.

Will buyers know we are divorcing? Not from us. The reason for a sale is not part of the listing, and we do not share it with buyers or their agents without permission from both of you.

Agreeing on a price when few homes sell nearby

St. Paul Park has few sales each year, which can make owners disagree about value. We use local sales and similar homes in neighboring cities, and we show both of you each one. If you still disagree, a licensed appraiser can provide an independent opinion.

An older home and the repair question

Older homes raise the question of what to fix. We give you both a short written list with estimated costs, so you can decide together or through your attorneys.

How we stay neutral and work with your attorneys is explained on our selling a home during divorce page. You can also request a value report for your St. Paul Park home, read about selling in St. Paul Park, or visit our St. Paul Park page.

How property is divided is a legal question for your attorney or mediator. When you are ready, send us a message or call (651) 661-4770. Either owner can contact us.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do we have to tell buyers why we are selling?

No. The reason for the sale is not part of the listing.

What if we disagree on what the home is worth?

We show you both the same sales. If you still disagree, an independent appraisal can help.
