The Impact on Mortgage Obligations in South Carolina

Understanding the Landscape

In the Palmetto State, divorce involves the principle of equitable distribution. This means that marital property, including real estate, is divided fairly, though not necessarily equally. The family home often represents a significant piece of this puzzle, bringing mortgage obligations to the forefront.

Addressing the Mortgage Challenge

1. Selling the Home:

• Consider selling the property and dividing the proceeds. This option provides a clean break but requires careful coordination.

2. Buyout Option:

• Explore the possibility of one spouse buying out the other’s share of the property. This allows for continuity, especially if children are involved.

3. Co-Ownership Post-Divorce:

• In some cases, ex-spouses choose to continue co-owning the property. This can be a challenging path but may make sense for financial or family reasons.
