Selling part of my garden.

Surely the ex husband's "share" would then be affected by the reduced value of what's left of the property?

Can't see this being the easy fix you want it to be.

I was thinking that as well. Husband would receive half of the proceeds of the garden sale. He would then receive half of the equity in the house and land that remain.

It may be that the garden sells for enough that the OP's half of the garden sale is more than half of the equity in the remaining property, and if this is the case and all parties agree, could work. However it is complicated.

It may be that there are other assets involved in the divorce and part of the agreement is that the OP has the house but needs to give the ex a set of money - which the OP wants to raise by selling part of the garden
