Another one of the most overlooked financial risks during divorce has nothing to do with the mortgage. It's homeowners' insurance.

When ownership of a property changes, the insurance policy usually needs to change too. Skipping that step may lead to coverage gaps, denied claims, and costly surprises long after the divorce is finalized.

As a Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLPยฎ), I help divorcing homeowners see how mortgage financing, property ownership, and other housing decisions shape their long-term financial picture. Catching an issue like this early is often the difference between a clean transition and an expensive mistake.

If you have questions about your situation or how divorce may affect your housing options, reach out anytime. The article below is a good place to start.

Rates started last week a little higher but ended lower after reports surfaced that a peace deal with Iran was close and could possibly be signed over the weekend. Even though both consumer and wholesale inflation continued to rise, markets largely expected those increases, so mortgage rates showed little reaction.

During divorce, most people focus on legal agreements and emotional healing. Few realize their financial identity may also be at risk.

Spousal identity theft can happen quietly when personal information that was once shared is used without consent. This can result in damaged credit, unexpected debt, and long-term financial consequences that extend well beyond the divorce.

This article explains what spousal identity theft looks like, why it often goes unnoticed, and how taking action early can help protect your financial future.

This is normal, right?

You find the perfect house online.
You schedule a showing.
You fall in love.

Then you start looking for a mortgage.

The problem?

โŒ You might find out the house costs more than you can afford.

โŒ You could miss out on loan programs or down payment assistance that could save you thousands.

โŒ You may not know what monthly payment actually fits your budget.

โŒ And while you're figuring all that out, another buyer who's already pre-approved may submit an offer first.

Getting pre-approved before you start house hunting doesn't mean you're committing to buy a home.

It simply helps you with:
โœ”๏ธ How much home can you afford
โœ”๏ธ Have more people take you seriously
โœ”๏ธ How much money can you save

The best first step in buying a home isn't finding a house.

It's finding out what you can buy before you start shopping.
Reach out to me or send me a message if you want to start looking around or have any questions.

People see the approvals and the closing photos.

What they donโ€™t always see is everything happening behind the scenes to get there.

The conversations. The strategy adjustments. The careful review of details.

The moments spent helping clients feel less overwhelmed and more grounded in the process.

A big part of my job is simply being a steady presence when things feel uncertain.

And honestly, that may be the most important part. And, you know what? I absolutely love what I do.

Most people don't realize a divorce decree can quietly disqualify them from the very mortgage they're counting on.

Support income that hasn't seasoned. An equity buyout structured the wrong way. A settlement that looks fair on paper but falls apart at the closing table.

As a Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLPยฎ), this is exactly what I'm trained to catch โ€” and prevent. I work where family law, tax, and mortgage financing intersect, so the plan holds up long after the ink dries.

Education is the strategy. If you're facing a mortgage decision in divorce, let's talk before the terms are final.

Rates moved higher last week, with the biggest moves coming on Friday in reaction to much stronger than expected jobs data. The jobs report smashed expectations, with more than twice as many new jobs created as forecast. The strong labor market makes it even more likely that the Fed will raise its policy rate this year to fight inflation.

After last week's early headlines that Iran could be pulling out of peace talks proved to be inaccurate, there was still no meaningful progress toward a deal. Rates will continue to move alongside oil prices, as well as be affected this week by both consumer and wholesale inflation reports and continued headlines coming out of the Middle East.

โ€ข The Middle East: Despite talks dragging on, mortgage rates are still likely to move along with headlines about any progress toward a deal that could reopen the Strait of Hormuz to commercial shipping traffic.
โ€ข Economic data: Inflation is bad for rates, pushing them higher, and we could see rates react to both consumer and wholesale inflation data this week if they show inflation continues to increase.

Identity theft is an often-overlooked risk during divorce.

Shared access to financial accounts, tax documents, and online logins doesnโ€™t automatically end when the marriage does. That continued access can quietly damage credit, expose personal data, and create obstacles to future mortgage financing.

Divorce lending isnโ€™t just about qualifying for a loanโ€”itโ€™s about protecting financial stability during a vulnerable transition. As a Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLPยฎ), I help identify identity-related risks early so housing decisions are built on safety, clarity, and feasibility.

If youโ€™re navigating divorce or advising divorcing clients, schedule a strategy call to protect credit, identity, and housing options before problems arise.
