Thanks, Jane!
My friend who is going through her 2nd divorce in Michigan has told me many of the same things as you did in your vey informative post. We've been married 9 years and my husband is much less educated than I am, so I don't see him being too much of an adversary in our case. I'd like to see him get the section of the property that he originally had deeded to him from his family when our relationship started, so we'd have to divide the property and then put the section that the house is on up for sale. I am totally not sentimentally attached to this place at all, even though we've put a lot of sweat and tears (mine, mostly) into it. We got the property and house for a song so I know we can make money if we sell it even with the outstanding balance on the mortgage and neither one of us will be left in dire straits. I assume I'll be the custodial parent becuase of my husband's substance abuse history, and my son's SSI monies will help me out tremedously getting a new start!
Thanks so much again for taking the time to respond in such detail!
Colleen
