Why You Need a Divorce-Savvy Real Estate Agent in Rhode Island

Divorce is one of life’s most emotionally and financially challenging transitions—and when real estate is involved, the stakes are even higher. Whether you're deciding whether to sell the family home, exploring a buyout option, or splitting proceeds, having the right real estate agent by your side can make all the difference.

At Greenwich Bay Brokers, we specialize in guiding clients through complex real estate situations, including divorce-related sales. Jennifer Cosgrove, one of our lead agents, is known throughout Rhode Island for her professionalism, empathy, and deep experience helping divorcing couples navigate the home selling process with clarity and confidence.

1. We Understand the Emotional Weight Behind the Sale

Selling a home during a divorce isn't just a transaction—it's a deeply personal experience. Jennifer brings a steady hand and thoughtful approach to every situation, understanding that emotions can run high and decisions are often difficult.

She creates a neutral, professional space where both parties feel heard and supported—while still moving the sale forward.

2. We Collaborate With Attorneys and Mediators

Divorce often involves legal counsel, mediators, and court timelines. Jennifer Cosgrove is experienced in working directly with family law attorneys and understands how to follow court-ordered processes, manage joint sign-offs, and protect each client’s best interest throughout the sale.

3. We Help You Avoid Costly Mistakes

Some common missteps during divorce real estate sales include:

• Pricing the home based on emotion rather than market data

• Delays caused by one party not cooperating

• Selling at the wrong time or to the wrong buyer

With Jennifer’s experience, these risks are minimized. She provides clear guidance based on current market conditions and objective strategies that serve both parties equally.

4. We Stay Neutral and Professional From Start to Finish

In traditional sales, agents often build rapport with a single client. In divorce-related transactions, neutrality is critical. Jennifer’s focus is on fairness, transparency, and communication. She serves as a trusted, neutral third party who ensures both spouses are informed and the transaction is handled with respect.

5. We Know the Rhode Island Market Inside and Out

From East Greenwich to Barrington, Newport to Narragansett, and beyond—Jennifer Cosgrove has helped countless families sell homes across Rhode Island. She understands how to properly price and position your property to attract serious buyers and maximize your return, even during difficult circumstances.
