My AH and I also have to deal with co-owning a house. Today my attorney commented (and I have already left the house and do not want to live there again) that I would get more money if I let my husband buy out my share of the house than if we sold it and split the profits. That is because there would not be a real estate commission, closing costs, fixing up costs, etc. I hadn't thought of it that way.
