Indiana Divorce Law, Children, and the Family Home

Indiana courts prioritize the best interests of children in divorce proceedings (IC 31-17-2). Courts may award temporary use of the marital home to the custodial parent during the divorce proceedings to minimize disruption to the children's schooling and routine. However, if neither parent can afford the home long-term, the court will order a sale. Indiana is an equitable distribution state (IC 31-15-7) β€” the proceeds are divided fairly, which typically means 50/50 unless circumstances warrant otherwise.

Timing the Sale Around the School Year

Bartolini Cash Buyers works on your timeline. If you want to close after the school year ends to minimize disruption to your children, we can accommodate that. If you need to close quickly for financial reasons, we can close in 7 days. You choose the closing date β€” we work around your family's needs.

Protecting Children's Stability During the Sale Process

A traditional listing requires showings, which means strangers walking through your home while your children are trying to maintain a sense of normalcy. A cash sale eliminates showings entirely β€” no open houses, no strangers, no disruption to your children's routine. Bartolini Cash Buyers evaluates the property once, makes an offer, and closes. That's it.

Dividing the Proceeds Fairly

Indiana's equitable distribution law (IC 31-15-7) governs how marital property is divided. The title company distributes proceeds according to the divorce decree or a written agreement between the spouses. Both spouses must sign the deed at closing. If one spouse is uncooperative, a court can appoint a commissioner to sign on their behalf. Bartolini Cash Buyers has experience working with divorce situations and can coordinate with both parties' attorneys.

Moving Forward After the Sale

A fast cash sale gives both parents the financial resources to establish separate households quickly β€” which is ultimately better for the children. The sooner both parents are settled in stable housing, the sooner the children can adjust to the new family structure. Bartolini Cash Buyers can close in 7 days, giving both parents the certainty they need to plan their next steps.
