Working with People Going Through Separation and Divorce
After talking to several former clients after the holidays, I realized that many of you may not know that I do a lot of work with people going through separation and divorce. I probably have done more mortgages for separating couples than anyone else in the country!
In the early 2000s, I found that there was a need for a mortgage professional with specialized knowledge of mortgages and divorce. In 2005, I trained in Collaborative Divorce and have since worked with many family law attorneys, financial professionals, and mental health professionals, helping families resolve their disputes respectfully and out of court. I have been a guest on podcasts about mortgages and divorce and a speaker for divorce support groups and Bar Associations.
Many phone calls and meetings I have with clients going through a separation do not result in a mortgage application. However, they almost always end with the client saying, “Thank you. That was so helpful. I feel so much better just having this information at a time when everything else feels so uncertain.”
To further educate people going through separation and divorce as well as divorce professionals, I am teaching a remote training called “Divorce and the Marital Home” on Tuesday, February 6, from noon to 1pm. If you would like to attend, please email Margie or Troy to receive a Zoom link. The training is open to the public, so any friends or colleagues you think this could help are welcome.
