[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I think that the court will rubber stamp whatever you and your DH can negotiate about house equity, and in general about marital property split. Courts do not usually step into marital property splits negotiated by agreement between parties unless there is a flagrant concern that one side is unfairly benefitting (for example, if one side is totally unrepresented by counsel). Talk with your lawyer, who should have experience, hopefully, with lots of different settlements, negotiating tactics, financial solutions, etc. He/she may be able to look at the property and suggest a way to balance out the equities taking into account present v. future value, what you will contractually be able to accomplish (lawyer will be able to estimate how much you can pull out of refi, etc.) You may be able to trade off by splitting retirement equity differently, or giving him another asset (car), whatever....[/quote]
