Charleston · Selling
Do both spouses have to agree to sell the home?
Both spouses' signatures are typically required on a listing agreement and sale contract when a house is jointly titled, since South Carolina treats every named owner as a required party to the transaction. A court order in a divorce proceeding can override that requirement if the spouses cannot agree. Brian Beatty checks how a property is titled before listing it, regardless of how a couple is dividing other assets.
