“Selling a house during a divorce isn't just about the property. It's about dividing one asset between two people who have very different goals, have different timelines, and have a different emotional investment in that property. It's rarely just a transaction. There's part negotiating, there's a lot of counseling involved.” - Jennifer Purzycki
