Divorced-Still living in same home?

[briansd1]

Robert, I’m sure that you’ll get plenty of private responses.

I think that there are plenty of peak buyers who read Piggington and who regret their purchase decisions. Afterall, all the real estate forums during the peak had plenty of posters who argued that prices would not drop because everyone needs a house, blah, blah, blah.

They are in hiding now because Pigg posters are pretty judgmental — especially those who defend the banks right to charge egregious fees but can’t see that millions of homeowners were seduced into buying overpriced houses for the wrong reasons.

If it weren’t for the banks pushing the wrong products, buyers would not have been able to buy overpriced houses in the first place. The banks carry the highest amount of proportional guilt, in my opinion.

Also in my view, any spouse who pushed the other spouse to buy an overpriced house deserves to be dumped.

No, this is the perfect place to ask. I’m sure there are plenty of people in this position and surfing blogs looking for answers. I bet there a couples that the housing bust drove or is driving to divorce while fighting over what to do with and underwater home. I can see it now – blaming one or another on who’s brilliant idea it was to buy

edit: Come to think of it, their is 30-40K people not paying their mortgage in SD. I bet a few of them are trying to divorce.

I do know couples that have been divorced for many years and are still living together. It’s “complicated” but none ever tried to sell the house. In all cases, their divorce was finalized and their assets were split. An underwater property wasn’t at issue in their divorces and no one ever tried to sell. Many of these divorces happened PRIOR to the RE bubble and the couple had equity. These are typically “roommate” situations and no one has or intends to remarry. Most of their neighbors are unaware these couples ever divorced.

Often one of the parties was mentally or physically unable to support themselves and so waived spousal support in lieu of free housing. It was a mutual decision, off the books, that the parties worked out.

This is NOT THAT uncommon of an occurrence and NO, Piggs, I am not one of these people ;=)
