Whether a spouse can keep the family home depends on financial circumstances, ownership, and whether minor children are involved. When determining who retains the family home, the court may consider who will maintain the home, who will provide primary care for the children, and whether one spouse can afford to keep it. The parties need to consider whether or not they will be able to continue to be responsible for the upkeep of the house after the divorce. The fate of the marital home also depends on its value and the financial situation of each spouse.
