Step 1
A professional, neutral resource for both parties.
Divorce is one of the most difficult things a person can go through. When there is a shared home involved, the process gets more complicated. Decisions that feel personal become legal and financial. Two people who may not agree on much right now have to agree on a price, a timeline, and an agent.
That's a lot to navigate. And it has to be done right.
My name is Kris Rogers. I'm a Colorado native and the founder of Premier Colorado Property. I specialize in divorce real estate across Colorado, from Colorado Springs to the Wyoming Border. I work with both parties, with the attorneys, and with the court when required to make sure the property side of the divorce gets handled cleanly, professionally, and without making a difficult situation worse.
My job is not to take sides. My job is to get the house sold in a way that's fair, transparent, and as smooth as possible for everyone involved.
Selling a home during a divorce is not the same as a standard home sale. The emotional stakes are higher, the communication between parties can be strained, and the transaction often has legal requirements and court timelines attached to it.
A real estate agent working a divorce transaction needs to be more than a good salesperson. They need to be a steady, neutral professional who can communicate clearly with both parties, work effectively with legal counsel on both sides, and keep the transaction moving without adding fuel to an already emotional situation.
Getting these details wrong doesn't just slow down the sale. It can complicate the divorce proceedings themselves. The right agent makes the process cleaner and faster for everyone, including the attorneys involved.
If you and your spouse own a home together in Colorado and your divorce requires selling it, I can help.
I work with both of you. Not just the one who calls me first. My job is to represent the sale of the property in a way that is fair and transparent to both parties. You will both have access to the same information about the listing, the offers, and the timeline. Neither of you will ever feel like I'm working against you.
I approach every conversation in a divorce transaction the same way I do any other: I lay out your options, walk through the pros and cons of each, and help you make informed decisions. This is your process. I'm here to handle the real estate piece of it so you can focus on everything else.
I serve clients across Brighton, Westminster, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, and everywhere in between along the Colorado Front Range.
If you're a family law attorney in Colorado, I want to be your real estate resource.
When your clients need to sell a shared home as part of a divorce settlement, they need an agent who will stay neutral, communicate professionally with both parties and both legal teams, and not create complications that land back on your desk.
I understand how divorce transactions work from the legal side. I know how to coordinate with both attorneys, how to handle situations where the parties cannot be in the same room, and how to document everything in a way that protects all parties.
I'm also happy to talk through specific scenarios before a referral. If you have a situation where you're not sure how the real estate side should be handled, call me. I'll give you a straight answer and I won't waste your time.
A short coffee or lunch conversation is the best way to get started. I'd genuinely welcome the chance to show you how I work before you refer a client.
Every divorce situation is different, but here is a general overview of how the home sale typically works and where I fit into the process.
Step 1
In most cases, both spouses need to agree to sell the home and agree on an asking price. If they cannot agree, the court can order the sale and appoint a neutral party to oversee it. Your family law attorney guides you through this step.
Step 2
Both parties should be comfortable with the agent. I am often brought in as a neutral third party when both attorneys need someone neither spouse has a prior relationship with. I'm happy to be introduced to both parties separately before any agreement is signed.
Step 3
I do a thorough market analysis and present the findings to both parties. I keep communication clear and documented throughout. The listing agreement is signed by both spouses unless the court has granted one party authority to act alone.
Step 4
Both parties receive the same information about every offer. I present offers neutrally and give both sides the same professional guidance on whether to accept, counter, or decline. Final decisions require agreement from both unless the court has directed otherwise.
Step 5
At closing, the net proceeds are distributed according to the divorce settlement agreement. I coordinate with both attorneys and the title company to make sure everything is handled correctly. The goal is a clean close that puts this chapter behind both parties.
I've been through divorce transactions and I understand what makes them hard. It's rarely the real estate itself. It's the communication, the trust, and the feeling that someone is taking sides.
I don't take sides. I work for the sale. That means both of you get the same information, the same access, and the same professional service from me throughout the process.
I'm a Colorado native who has built a practice around helping people through major life transitions. Divorce is one of the hardest. My job is to take the real estate piece completely off your plate and handle it with the professionalism and discretion it deserves.
I approach every client relationship the way a financial advisor would. I lay out the options, walk through the implications of each, and let the people involved decide how to proceed. In a divorce transaction, that means both parties always know where they stand.
I serve clients from Colorado Springs to the Wyoming Border, including Brighton, Westminster, Thornton, Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, Windsor, Firestone, Frederick, and Falcon.
In most cases, yes. Both spouses typically need to agree to sell the marital home and agree on a listing price and terms. If you cannot agree, the court has the authority to order the sale and can appoint a commissioner or give one spouse decision-making authority over the property. Your family law attorney can advise you on the specific options available in your situation.
Yes, it is possible to sell a marital home before the divorce is finalized in Colorado, but both spouses must typically agree and sign the listing agreement and closing documents. The proceeds from the sale are usually held in escrow or distributed according to a temporary court order or settlement agreement until the divorce is complete. A real estate attorney or your family law attorney can advise on your specific situation.
In Colorado, marital property is divided equitably, which does not necessarily mean 50/50. The equity in a shared home is considered marital property and is subject to division as part of the divorce settlement. The specific split depends on factors including the length of the marriage, each spouse's financial situation, and any agreements reached in the settlement. Your family law attorney handles this determination. The real estate agent's job is to maximize the sale price so there is as much equity to divide as possible.
This is one of the most common situations in divorce real estate. If one spouse wants to keep the home, they typically need to refinance the mortgage in their name alone and buy out the other spouse's share of the equity. If they cannot qualify for a refinance on their own, or if the parties cannot agree on a buyout amount, the court may order the home to be sold. A real estate agent experienced in divorce transactions can provide a professional market value opinion that both parties and their attorneys can use in these negotiations.
Not necessarily. Both spouses typically need to sign the closing documents, but many title companies in Colorado offer options for remote or separate signings so the parties do not have to be in the same room. This is something I coordinate with the title company as a matter of course in divorce transactions.
Yes, and in many cases using a single neutral agent is actually more efficient than each party trying to hire their own. A neutral agent represents the sale of the property, not either spouse individually. The key is that both parties trust the agent to be fair and transparent with both of them throughout the process. If one spouse has an existing relationship with an agent, it often makes more sense to bring in someone neutral that neither party has a prior connection with.
Look for an agent who has experience with divorce transactions specifically, who can demonstrate that they work neutrally with both parties, and who has a professional relationship with family law attorneys in your market. Your family law attorney may already have a real estate agent they refer clients to. If not, asking your attorney for a recommendation is a good starting point. An experienced divorce real estate agent will be able to explain exactly how they handle communication, documentation, and decision-making in a transaction involving two parties who may not be in agreement.
Whether you're going through a divorce and trying to figure out what to do with your home, or you're a family law attorney looking for a real estate partner you can trust with your clients, I'm here.
I'll give you a straight answer, no pressure, no judgment. This is a hard enough situation without making the real estate more complicated than it has to be.
