How long do you have to wait to get divorced in Texas?
In reality there really is no such thing as a quickie divorce in Texas. Our state requires a minimum 60-day waiting period between filing and finalizing a divorce. Additionally, due to the legal complexities involved in divorce, most couples find it takes longer than two months to officially dissolve the marriage.
What happens if I can’t refinance after divorce?
If you’re not willing or able to sell or refinance your home, your other choice is to keep the home and the mortgage intact. Both parties remain on the loan and liable for the payment. This requires specific language in the divorce agreement about who will make the mortgage payments each month.
Who pays mortgage after divorce?
If you are going through a divorce you need to keep paying the mortgage, even if you have moved out of the family home. When two people take out a joint mortgage, both agree to be equally liable for the debt until the mortgage is paid off, not just while you live in the property.
Should I refinance home before divorce?
Starting the refinance process before the divorce is filed is by far the quickest and easiest path. This is because, when you talk to your mortgage lender about refinancing, they will ask you your marital status.
