So ex wants a split out of the house but is basically refusing to pay 50% of the maintaince, repairs, mortgage shortfall etc until it's sold.
Any way of enforcing this ?
Thank you

Have you got a lawyer? If not, get one. I imagine that when it comes to divorce financials anything he refuses to pay in the meantime will be taken from his share. Is the house in both your names?

No it's just in his name. I can't afford a lawyer I just can't

I would try asking this question in the Legal board.
I do agree with pp that his share of the house upkeep will come out of his percentage when the house is sold. Make sure everything is documented and receipts kept.

Divorced now, I didn't realise you're meant to sort this first. We were married 10 years, 4 kids
