SplitFairy

  • How do I use SplitFairy to help split our community property?
  • Does it work for any state or country?
    • Yes and No. The SplitFairy uses its estimate of income taxes that result from selling some items, like your home or stock investments. If your state/country has taxes significantly different from California’s, it will make estimates that are wrong, and those affect the decisions it recommends. If you aren’t selling items, or it does not recommend selling items, it should work fine.
    • Please look into to your state’s laws about what is considered Community Property or Separate Property.
