How much of the appreciation on a home that is owned by your spouse is yours to share in Rochester depends on several factors, most importantly, how much money you have put into the property that helped add to the appreciation.
For a couple in a relatively short marriage who have split the mortgage payments and watched their local market improve, you may not be entitled to any of the appreciation.
On the other hand, if you financed repairs or renovations that boosted the value, you likely have a claim for some compensation to recoup your investment.
There are a number of ways to approach property distribution and maximizing returns from especially valuable property.
