When you can buy

During the case with a stipulation, after the decree cleanly, and the three-year support rule that decides the timing.

What the lender counts

Wages, support with a decree and receipts, the buyout money as a down payment, and what counts against you.

Page 3

The money

CHFA after three years without ownership, metroDPA, the budget under a third of take-home, rent first or buy now.

What it is

A 4-page PDF in the same format as our Colorado divorce-home guide, written by The Kenna Real Estate Group with Damon L. Chavez, Certified Real Estate Divorce Specialist. Short sections, tables, callout boxes for the catches, Denver-metro numbers, and who to call on the last page. General education, not legal, tax or lending advice, and it says so on every page.

What is in it

When you can buy: during the case, after the decree, and the timing traps.
What a lender counts on one income, and what counts against you.
The settlement money as the down payment, CHFA and metroDPA.
Rent for a year or buy now: the honest test.
The search: the parenting plan, the commute, the bedroom count.
The buyer's checklist and who to call.

Where to go next

Plain-language education, not advice. Divorce Decisions is published by The Kenna Real Estate Group at Keller Williams DTC, a real estate team. Nothing here is legal, tax, lending or financial advice, and reading it does not create any professional relationship. Colorado law and lender rules change; confirm anything that matters to your case with a licensed Colorado attorney, a tax professional, and your lender. See our full disclaimer.
