Subitai, I'm mainly asking out of curiosity as I've never heard of a setup quite like this before, are you saying that you and your W are going to be switching back and forth between the house and apt.? IE, you're both sharing the same house and apt., but switch back and forth week-to-week while the kids stay in the house full time?

Yup, that was me too. When my XW moved out she of course wanted to take half the furniture (as was her right) but I would have had to buy replacement stuff so the agreement we came to was she would leave almost everything and I would buy her new stuff for her place (not everything she needed, but enough to make it a fair swap). So yeah, we all ended up going to Ikea together, they picked the stuff out, I paid for it and I set it up at her new place. I would do it again too, that was easier for me to deal with then seeing half the stuff in the house go away!
