In the context of a divorce, what unconventional strategies have people used to negotiate property division? Are there any surprising precedents or case studies that illustrate unique outcomes for the family home?

I heard a story where a former couple divided the property into two apartments. Not sure if it is true or just an urban myth.

You do also hear of people continuing to live in the same property together on a house share basis. Probably becomes awkward when one wants to bring their new partner home.
