Navigating Property Division After Divorce: Ensuring a Fair Split of the Family Home

A woman who has been divorced from her ex-husband for 20 years discovered that he tried to secretly sell their rental home without her knowledge. He now suggests a 70-30 split, claiming that he paid for the home's maintenance over the years. However, the woman argues for a 50-50 split, pointing out that the rental income and tax deductions likely covered the expenses. She advises responding with a firm request for an equal split or suggesting a partition action if he refuses.
