Rental house after divorce

I’m currently going through the process of divorce, and I was looking for some advice when it came to a rental house we have. She is willing to let me pay for her half, but we currently have a 2.5% interest rate and with how high interest rates are, it would be a hefty price difference when I refinance to remove her from the title. Net worth is around $100K and we refinanced it in Sept 2020.

The rental income is currently $2,645, with the property manager taking 185 (7%), and mortgage almost $1.6K; meaning not accounting for other expenses, we pull about $860 per month. Assuming the new APR for Texas would be around 7%, the estimated price of the total mortgage (tax/insurance included) after refinancing would be around $2.2K. Leaving about 260 per month, but that doesn’t account for repairs, vacancies, etc.

I have an 800 credit but I might have to do a cash-out refinance or something to pay her the estimated $50K she would be owed, unless we agree on paying her the $50K over time. I have a decent amount of money saved up in case something goes wrong, but I’m unsure if it wouldn’t be worth it to just both sell and each walk away with $50K. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
