How is selling a house during a divorce different in Saskatoon?

Selling a house during a divorce works the same way in Saskatoon as anywhere else in Saskatchewan: The Family Property Act governs how the equity is divided, and The Homesteads Act, 1989 requires the non-owning spouse's written consent to a sale or mortgage regardless of whose name is on title.

What changes city to city is the market a valuation has to be measured against. Saskatchewan REALTORS Association figures put the benchmark price at $444,700, up 2.8 percent year over year, and a Saskatoon-specific number is what makes a divorce settlement defensible rather than a rough guess.

Two parties negotiating from two different online estimates is one of the more common reasons a divorce sale drags on 3 to 6 months longer than it needs to, and that dynamic shows up in Saskatoon exactly as it does elsewhere.

Joel Dyck provides the neutral, hand-reviewed number both spouses' lawyers can work from, built in Saskatoon comparables rather than a generic algorithm. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
