Fort Collins divorce realtors

Selling the house is usually the biggest money decision in a Colorado divorce. Kenna Real Estate Group's Fort Collins divorce realtors sell it as a neutral third party, so neither spouse has to negotiate with the other.

A live person answers. Not a robot, not a phone tree. Everything you tell us stays private.

Neutral

One agent, both spouses

We work for the sale, not for one side. Price, repairs and offers are agreed in writing by both of you before the sign goes up.

Court ready

A value the court will accept

Our written Smart Pricing Report™ gives both spouses three prices and the evidence behind them, plus a licensed appraisal when the attorneys want one.

Discreet

Nobody has to know why

The listing never says divorce. Showings are scheduled around whoever still lives there. Calls and texts go to one number.

The catch

We are not your attorney

We sell the house. Who gets what is decided by your agreement or the Larimer County court. Get legal advice before you sign anything.

About divorce realtors in fort collins, colorado in Fort Collins

From the street it looks like any other listing. Behind it, two people who are splitting up have to agree on every decision.

Two sellers, one signature line. Both spouses sign the listing, every price change and the contract. If one goes quiet, the sale stalls.

The court has a calendar. Colorado will not enter a decree until at least 91 days after the other spouse is served, and many settlements say the house must be listed or sold by a date.

Old Town bungalows and south-side newer homes are different markets; CSU rental demand matters if one spouse wants to keep and rent.

The most common path in Colorado. Both spouses walk away with cash, the joint mortgage ends, and nobody stays tied to the other's credit.

One of you refinances into your own name and pays the other their share. It only works if that spouse qualifies for the loan alone.

Where Fort Collins cases are heard. Larimer County (8th Judicial District), Larimer County District Court, Larimer County Justice Center, 201 LaPorte Ave., Suite 100, Fort Collins 80521. Larimer County divorce and the house has the courthouse, self-help center and hours.

Timing and cost. One spouse must have lived in Colorado 91 days before filing; the decree cannot be entered until 91 days after service. Filing fee $260, response $146.

Fit check

Your three options for the house

Sell now and split the equity

The most common path in Colorado. Both spouses walk away with cash, the joint mortgage ends, and nobody stays tied to the other's credit.

  • What the home is worth today, in writing
  • Payoff on every loan and lien
  • Who pays the mortgage until closing

One spouse keeps it (a buyout)

One of you refinances into your own name and pays the other their share. It only works if that spouse qualifies for the loan alone.

  • A pre-approval for the refinance
  • An appraisal both sides accept
  • A deadline in the decree if the refinance fails

Sell later

Some couples keep the home until the end of the year or a job move. It keeps things stable for the kids but keeps both names on the loan.

  • Who lives there and who pays what
  • A firm list date in the agreement
  • What happens if the market drops

How selling the house during divorce works in Fort Collins

Six steps, in order. We handle the parts in the middle so the two of you only have to agree on the decisions.

1

Decide when to sell

Before the decree, after it, or on a date in the settlement. Your attorney and your agent agree on the timing.

2

Get the value in writing

A market analysis from us, plus a licensed appraisal when the attorneys want one.

3

Agree on the ground rules

Price, lowest acceptable offer, repairs, showing hours, who signs. All in writing first.

4

List and show the home

Photos, MLS exposure, showings scheduled around whoever lives there. The listing never says divorce.

5

Negotiate and close

Every offer goes to both spouses at the same time. The title company splits the proceeds per your agreement.

6

Find the next place

We help each spouse separately, with nothing shared between the two.

Questions Fort Collins couples ask divorce realtors

Where do I file for divorce if I live in Fort Collins?

In Larimer County District Court, Larimer County Justice Center, 201 LaPorte Ave., Suite 100, Fort Collins 80521. One spouse must have lived in Colorado for 91 days before filing. The petition fee is $260 and the response fee is $146 (since January 2025); a fee waiver is available on form JDF 205.

Who gets the house in a Colorado divorce?

Whoever the two of you agree on in the settlement, or whoever the judge awards it to after weighing the factors in C.R.S. 14-10-113. Most couples sell and split the equity because neither one can carry the whole payment alone.

Who gets to stay in the house during the divorce?

Whoever you agree on, or whoever the court orders. A temporary order can give one spouse exclusive use of the home while the case is open. It does not change who owns it.

Can we sell the house before the divorce is final?

Yes, and many couples do. Both spouses sign the listing and the contract, and the proceeds are held or split the way your written agreement or a court order says.

Is it better to sell before or after the divorce?

Selling before means both names come off the loan sooner and the proceeds are divided under the settlement. Selling after means the spouse awarded the home controls the sale. The capital gains exclusion can differ too, so ask a CPA.

How is the value of the house decided?

By agreement, by a licensed appraiser, or by the court if you cannot agree. We give both spouses the same written market analysis first so nobody is negotiating from a number the other has not seen.

Can one spouse refuse to sell?

Not forever. If the house is marital property the court can order it sold and appoint someone to sign if a spouse will not. Most cases settle before that. Divorce Decisions covers this in detail: what if one spouse refuses to sell.

Can I keep the house if my spouse was the main earner?

Only if you can refinance the loan in your own name or the settlement lets you stay on the existing loan for a set time. Maintenance and child support can count as income for a mortgage once they have a payment history. See our divorce for women page for the full answer.

What if we owe more than the house is worth?

Then there is no equity to divide. The options are keep it, wait, or sell short with the lender's approval. Read our underwater guide before you list.

How long does a Colorado divorce take?

The court cannot enter a decree until 91 days after the petition is served. Uncontested cases often finish in three to four months; contested cases with a house to fight over take longer.

Do we pay capital gains tax when we sell?

A married couple filing jointly can usually exclude up to $500,000 of gain on a primary home if they sell before the decree in that tax year; afterward each ex-spouse gets $250,000 if the ownership and use tests are met. Ask a CPA before you pick a closing date.

Does the listing say it is a divorce sale?

No. The listing says nothing about why you are selling. Both spouses get the same information at the same time, and calls come to one number.

What does a divorce realtor cost?

The same commission as any other sale, paid out of the proceeds at closing. There is no extra fee for handling a divorce. The consultation is free.
