Jennifer Alvarez, Realtor® with Compass, specializes in helping clients navigate real estate decisions during major life transitions, including divorce. According to Alvarez, one of the most common mistakes divorcing homeowners make is rushing to sell — or delaying too long — without fully understanding their options.
"Many clients assume selling immediately is the only solution," Alvarez says. "In reality, there are often multiple paths forward, and the right choice depends on timing, equity, tax considerations, and the broader legal strategy."
Key considerations for divorcing homeowners include:
- Whether selling, refinancing, or retaining the home makes the most financial sense
- How market timing may impact proceeds and negotiation leverage
- Preparing a property for sale discreetly and efficiently
- Coordinating with legal counsel to avoid unintended complications
Alvarez emphasizes that real estate decisions made during divorce should be strategic, not reactive.
"My role is to provide steady, informed guidance so clients — and their attorneys — can move forward with clarity," she says. "That means clear communication, discretion, and an understanding of how real estate fits into the larger picture."
As divorce filings increase early in the year, Alvarez encourages homeowners and professionals alike to seek experienced guidance before making major property decisions.
Jennifer Alvarez serves clients throughout Phoenix and Scottsdale and works closely with attorneys and other professionals to ensure smooth real estate outcomes during complex transitions.
