Eleanor B. Alter Discusses Real Estate Issues in High-Net-Worth Divorces in the Article "Splitting a Billionaire's Property Empire" with The Real Deal
The article discusses the division of assets in high-net-worth divorces, in this case, divvying up a billionaire couple’s real estate portfolio worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Eleanor explains, “In those cases, we’ve always divided up the residences they really care about and gotten rid of the ones they don’t.” She notes that commercial real estate is typically easier to divide, as it’s not as emotionally charged. When it comes to determining custody arrangements and the division of assets, Eleanor says, “If people are reasonable, they can do it.”
