ParticipantSorry about your personal situation.
From a business standpoint:
a) How much did you originally pay
b) How much do you currently owe
c) What is the rate on your current loan and is it fixed
d) How much income can you get from the guest unit
e) Do you know your credit score or what you qualify forIt already sounds like your net cost of living there is going to be way less than renting elsewhere, regardless of what you owe.

ParticipantIf you do, consider that you will be paying off your spouse with tax free dollars while inheriting the entire capital gain issue downstream (i.e. only 250K exclusion instead of 500K). The best advice I would give you is to get a professional appraisal done to set the value. Specifically, I would get an appriaser who specializes in divorce related appraisals. I would recommend Jerry Longwell out of La Mesa. This is all he does and you can Google him to get his number.
The value will likely be lower than what you think which isto your benefit. Most of the Family Law Attorney’s in SD know and use him so you should not have a problem getting your spouse’s attorney to accept him.
Good Luck

From a business standpoint:
a) How much did you originally pay
b) How much do you currently owe
c) What is the rate on your current loan and is it fixed
d) How much income can you get from the guest unit
e) Do you know your credit score or what you qualify for
[/quote]a) Paid 307K in 2000
b) Currently owe 200K
c) 15yr fixed at 4.85% (about 9yrs remaining)
d) Guesthouse gets $650 month. I have no children so can rent out one of the bedrooms to a room-mate for $650 month also.
e) I have no idea of my creditscore or qualification amount.I can’t afford to continue with the current 15yr mortgage and also buy her out of her portion….which will be about an additional 100K. I will probably need to refinance to a 30yr fixed for 300K if I want to keep the house.
My thinking is that later on when I get a second income again (I just turned 40)…..it will be easy.
