A note from the author
Divorce is a human story, it’s not just about assets and property, it is about the ongoing journey of broken people.
This is my personal journey with those navigating this path.
I hope this article helps you understand you’re not alone and we offer non judgmental help, like many I’ve walked the journey with, there are sunlit meadows ahead of you.

Forever Love and Forever Homes are the natural outcomes of marriage.
The term Family House has no resonance but Family Home does, love is the single ingredient that changes the definition.
So what do we do when the forever plan comes to a premature end?
What makes divorce so incredibly painful is the broken hearts, relationships and the place where we all belong, the family home.
The no judgment principle
When I have a spouse or real estate agent reach out to me I am acutely aware of the vulnerability of either spouse and children.
Beyond the pain, tumult and anxiety is fear, the fear of the unknown.
Understanding the fear and loss
I can’t fix broken hearts but i can help reduce anxiety and fear.
Almost without exception every client worries about a lifetime of living in rentals and losing a sense of belonging.
Whether you’re a mum or dad, pet parents or a senior member of society each category of person worries about the their sense of belonging and dislocation.
What’s at stake?
Mortgage, Legal Fees, No Savings.
Financial vulnerability is the greatest impediment to buying a new home.
Often people are so preoccupied with the journey of divorce that the reality of getting a new home becomes more remote.
The 3 agreements
My role isn’t to side with either spouse or increase the tension, rather in an understanding manner put together a home presentation plan that accomplishes 3 key objectives that both parties can agree on.
1: Maximise Sales Price
2: Maximum Buyer Appeal
3: Minimise Time on Market
I understand the market place, I know how to present a home that will appeal most to cashed up buyers.
This process isn’t about taking sides in a relationship, my plan is purely making the house an investment that pays dividends for the sellers.
It’s as simple as that.
The Game Plan
Selling a home during a divorce is rarely easy, but with the right plan, you can minimise stress and maximise your outcome. Remember, this is a step toward starting a new chapter, a new life and a new forever home for both of you.
