Family Law can really ruin things for people who have bought
their own home. Over the past several months, if not years,
the prices of homes have skyrocketed. It is no longer a
simple feat to purchase a home – it requires a lot of hard
work and obviously, money. To get a home, people have to work
through school, spend years in full-time employment, finally earn
enough income to secure a home, then make mortgage payments for
several years.
After doing all that if the homeowner marries, then separates,
a large chunk, perhaps even half of all that effort goes away
to the ex “for free.” Marriage can take away your
most significant asset. In this episode of the Ontario Family
Law Podcast, Certified Specialist in Family
Law, John Schuman, explains how that
happens, and how to prevent it from happening, so married spouses
can keep their homes if they divorce.
