Who I Work with
Attorneys and Mediators
You drive strategy, protect your client, but need housing debt facts you can trust.
I help you:
- Validate “keep the house” before settlement locks
- Reduce surprises that force renegotiation
- Tighten the case file with organized documents
- Coordinate with paralegal for a clean document flow
Financial Professionals
You build the financial plan, and need a mortgage approval to set the limits.
I help you:
- Stress-test cash flow after support and housing costs
- Confirm equity with payoff reality, not assumptions
- Map refinance and buyout feasibility
- Identify moves that improve qualification and stability
Real Estate Agents
Divorce listings and buyouts come with risk. Your reputation sits on clean execution.
I help you:
- Confirm whether a buyout can actually happen
- Prep the moving spouse for a purchase plan
- Reduce title, lien, and payoff surprises
- Keep timelines tighter so deals close

FAQ
No. I provide mortgage feasibility guidance and documentation that supports housing decisions. You control legal strategy.
I can support the referred party while maintaining professional boundaries. If both parties request support, I follow a transparent, disclosed process.
Most snapshots are delivered within 48 to 72 hours after intake, and the required documents are provided.
Property address, estimated value, current mortgage information, income type, support expectations, credit range (if known), and timeline.
You get a realistic yes/no on the plan, plus alternative paths when the first option fails.
Before you finalize terms, get the mortgage clarity.
