Most people who go through a divorce require a mortgage-related transaction, so FinLocker has created a guide that explores the five common options for settling this asset.

1. One party refinances the current mortgage
2. One party assumes the existing mortgage
3. One party buys their spouse’s share of the home equity
4. Martial home is sold, proceeds divided, and one or both parties acquire a new purchase mortgage
5. Both parties keep the home and continue paying the current mortgage
