Can a House Be Sold While a Divorce Is in Progress?

In many cases, you can sell a house before the divorce is finalized. Whether a home can be sold during a divorce depends on your specific legal situation and whether both parties have the authority to move forward with the sale. If both spouses agree to sell, the process is often simple.

In some situations, court approval or guidance from your attorney may be necessary before closing.
