Had built a four bedroom home on Lake Hartwell in SC and had three buyers bidding on it. Sold for $25 k over the asking price. Had another home where soon to be ex and I agreed to split the difference between the mortgage and an independent appraisal. During the crash about ten years ago prices were down. She drug out the divorce for over a year. After that year prices went way up in that market. Got divorced. Paid her the previous amount from the appraisal. Sold it three months later for $50 k over the appraised amount. Hope no one knows her as I’m sure she would want another $25 k. Remember, we had an agreement.
