Refinancing Your Home After Separation

Separation and divorce can happen to the best of us and come from the left field.

One of the concerns people have when considering if they should separate is financial. How are they going to afford to make this change? Will they be able to afford to stay in the family home. Is it possible to be separated under one roof during this housing crisis?  Some people may plan for the separation years before it actually happens. 

Some separations can mean it is a bitter and long drawn out process. For some people, decoupling can assist (Counsellors and other Professionals can assist) and smooth the way – it will come down to the reasons and the people who are involved. Messy separations can be very taxing emotionally and financially while others are more amicable.
