Hingham, MA family law attorney Carmela M. Miraglia talks about the important questions she asks clients who want to keep their marital home in a divorce. She explains that when a client asks whether they can keep the marital home in a divorce, she generally responds by asking whether they should keep it. She encourages them to consider whether they can afford to buy out the other party, manage the monthly mortgage, and handle the ongoing upkeep of the property on a single income rather than a combined one. In other words, there are many more factors to evaluate than simply asking, “Should I keep the marital home?”
