As a husband and father of three boys himself, Joel is familiar with the family side of these sales, not just the paperwork, and that matters because a family home sale usually involves more decision-makers, and more emotion, than a straightforward single-owner listing.
Legally, the process needs a lawyer regardless of the circumstances: The Homesteads Act, 1989 protects a spouse's interest in the family home even if their name is not on title, and those questions get answered, typically with $800 to $1,500 in legal fees, before a valuation is even useful.
Getting the legal side settled and getting an accurate number are two separate steps, and both need to happen. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
