Frequently Asked Questions
A divorce buyout is when one spouse purchases the other spouse's share of marital assets, such as the family home, to retain full ownership after divorce.
The buyout amount equals the spouse's share of net equity (total assets minus total liabilities) multiplied by their ownership percentage.
The calculator requires that the ownership percentages sum to 100%. Adjust the inputs accordingly.
