I've sat across from a lot of siblings who really love the same house and still can't agree on what to do with it. The house is almost never the hard part. It's actually getting everyone on the same page that takes real time.

I wrote this guide to help families work through it together, without it turning into a whole thing.

I've worked with a lot of divorcing couples on the house side of things, and one thing really helps more than almost anything else. Just getting one clear, consistent set of numbers everyone can actually work from.
