In the state of Washington, all property in a divorce is subject to division. That being said, your property will likely not be divided 50/50 in a divorce.Instead, Washington divorces focus on equitable divisionthat is, a division that is fair and just, not necessarily equal.
Equitable distribution is a method of dividing property at the time of divorce. All states except for Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin follow the principles of equitable distribution.
Specifically, to determine the amount of alimony, a spousal support award should be calculated by taking 30% of the payor's gross income minus 20% of the payee's gross income.
Courts usually award each spouse his or her separate property and divide community property 50/50. Consequently, if the house is entirely one spouse's separate property, he or she almost always receives it unless the parties agree otherwise.
