Buying a Home While Getting Divorced

Divorce can be an emotional rollercoaster and untangling your life isn't easy. You may want to move on quickly, but is buying a home while going through a divorce a good idea?

After separating from your spouse, we look at what you need to do and consider when you want to buy. In some states, you can save a down payment and buy a home more easily than in other parts of the country.

If you don't consider the possible complications before you decide to buy, you could find that the judge awards half of your new home to your ex.
