Divorce
When Change is Needed
Selling your home during a divorce?
We make it simple.
Divorce is one of the hardest things you’ll go through. The last thing you need is a complicated, drawn-out home sale. SJ West Real Estate offers a fast, private cash offer — no showings, no repairs, no waiting.
Why homeowners in divorce choose SJ West
We remove the house from the equation — fast.
When a shared home sits on the market, it keeps two people tied together longer than they want to be. We buy properties directly, often closing in as little as 7–14 days, so both parties can move forward with their lives.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Do both spouses have to agree to sell?
Yes — both parties on the title must consent to the sale. In contested situations, a court order may compel a sale. We’re happy to work alongside your attorney to coordinate this.
What if one spouse doesn’t want to sell?
We understand it’s complicated. We can still prepare an offer so both parties have a concrete number in front of them, which often helps move things forward. We’re not here to pressure anyone.
How do you split the proceeds?
That’s between you, your attorneys, and the court — not us. We pay out at closing per whatever instructions your legal team provides in the settlement agreement.
Do you charge any fees or commissions?
None. We buy directly, so there are no agent commissions, closing cost surprises, or hidden fees. The offer we make is what you receive.
How fast can you really close?
Typically 7–21 days once both parties have agreed. If your legal proceedings require more time, we can accommodate a later close date too.
