Philip LaGiglia: The New Mortgage That Makes Home Buying Easy

Off the Fence with Karen Covy: Mastering Decision Making, Divorce & More

With today’s interest rates and the low inventory of available housing, buying a new home isn’t nearly as “do-able” today as it was a few years ago. Homes are being sold before they’re technically even on the market. Bidding wars are common.

Couples now find themselves facing hard decisions about how they’ll both be able to find housing post-divorce. This is particularly a problem when a couple wants to live in a certain school district for their kids, or when they are trying to buy a home for one of them that’s close to the house they currently have.

Phillip LaGiglia, the Senior Vice President at North Shore Savings, who has been through his own difficult divorce, has a passion for guiding divorcing homeowners towards financial stability, especially for families with children. As a seasoned mortgage professional, Phil knows how important it is to get mortgage professionals involved early in the divorce process.

Too often, divorcing couples make agreements about the house before they know whether the agreements they’ve made are financially feasible or not. They can also get caught in a bind when they need the money from the sale of their marital home in order to buy a new home.

To eliminate this problem, Phil's company has pioneered an innovative "Buy Now, Sell Later" loan program that allows divorcing homeowners to purchase a new property without first having to sell their current home - removing a major financial stumbling block in their divorce.

This podcast episode can provide a wealth of information for divorcing couples (especially divorcing parents) who are – and want to continue to be – homeowners.
