Have home with Equity - Getting Divorced - Wondering about option
I have a home in the Boston Area with about $40,000 left on the mortgage.
I am getting divorced and in our divorce agreement I can buy my wife out for $140,000.
The home is worth about $380,000.
Ideally I would like to refinance, pay her off, take out enough money to pay off my credit Card debt, about $75,000 - don't ask, and not have to sell. My two children would live with me.
I am self employed and don't think I can refinance based on what I show on taxes.
I want to stay in the house about three more years.
Is there a creative solution to my dilemma?
Thanks
