Our Mission
To provide financial clarity at the intersection of the legal, financial, and emotional aspects of divorce and the real estate and mortgage process—empowering divorcing individuals with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to protect their financial well-being and make confident, informed decisions about their housing.
Our Goal
Our educational resources will also expand as the CDLP® designation grows in popularity and recognition in the family law and financial sectors. We will continue to provide continuing education for family law attorneys, financial advisors, mediators, and others who value integrating divorce mortgage planning into their case management with the help of a CDLP®.
What is a Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLP®)?
Divorce involves the division of assets, including the family home, and navigating financial intricacies can be challenging. A Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLP®) is trained to help divorcing individuals understand their mortgage options, evaluate the feasibility of keeping or refinancing the family home, and provide guidance on mortgage-related matters during and after divorce.
Benefits of Working with a CDLP®:
- Expert Guidance: CDLP®s collaborate closely with divorce attorneys, financial planners, and other professionals involved in the divorce process to ensure that mortgage decisions align with the divorcing parties' overall financial goals.
- Comprehensive Analysis: They help clients understand various mortgage choices, tax implications, and financial consequences.
- Specialized Support: A Certified Divorce Lending Professional is a specialized mortgage expert who provides informed and tailored advice to individuals navigating the complexities of real estate and mortgages during divorce proceedings.
