Divorce and Housing
A divorce means that at least one of the parties has to move. This raises a lot of questions these days: Can one of you continue to live in the home or should it be sold? What are the options for purchasing a new home? What does this mean for the monthly costs?
To provide answers to these questions during the divorce process, Raad & Daad has an exclusive partnership with De Hypotheker.
This way you have both a mediator and a mortgage advisor at your fingertips and you are completely unburdened during the entire process.
Everything arranged under one roof together with De Hypotheker
You have enough on your mind during a divorce. Apart from emotional decisions, you also have to make many practical decisions. Owning a home with a mortgage often makes the situation even more complicated. For this reason, Raad & Daad has an exclusive partnership with De Hypotheker – the largest and best-known independent mortgage advisor in the Netherlands.
One of the MfN registered mediators from Raad & Daad, Advies & Mediation B.V. will help you with divorce and housing. The mediatort will aid you in making agreements about the marital home, the children, alimony, the division of assets and debts and pensions. The mediator will record the agreements made for you in a divorce agreement and a possible parenting plan.
The appointments take place at one of De Hypotheker’s branches; so we always have a location nearby. You are also entitled to a free and non-binding consultation with an advisor from De Hypotheker. This way, before signing the agreement, you know how much you can borrow and what your housing costs will be after the divorce; this provides clarity.
The divorce will then be applied for by the lawyer at the court. The divorce is granted on this basis. Finally, the lawyer will ensure that the divorce decree is registered in the civil status registers. The mediator is also your permanent point of contact during this process.
This way you can be sure that everything has been arranged properly at the end of the journey.
Divorce and living is possible for a fixed price determined in advance. You may also be eligible for a government contribution towards the costs of the mediation.

Frequently asked questions
What are the costs of divorcing with an own home?
We think it is important that you have a good estimation of the costs of the divorce in advance. We are as transparent as possible about this. However, the costs of a divorce are not the same for everyone. For example, you may be eligible for a contribution from the government towards these costs. For that reason, we first want to have a better understanding of your situation.
For a customized cost estimate, complete the form on the website or contact us by telephone.
The first consultation with an advisor from De Hypotheker is completely free and without obligation. After this conversation, the advisor will provide a quote.
How long does the process of divorcing with an own home take?
In most cases, the divorce must first be finalized before the mortgage can be arranged. Including the court, the entire divorce procedure takes approximately two to three months.
If, after the intake interview, you decide to continue with De Hypotheker, the advisor will provide advice and have the mortgage adjusted or take out a new mortgage for one or both partners. This is usually arranged within three months.
Am I obliged to work with De Hypotheker?
The collaboration with De Hypotheker is completely without obligation. You are therefore not obliged to talk to an advisor from De Hypotheker if you apply for divorce with us.
