Hi
I don't know if anyone has been in the same position but hoping I can get your opinions.
I left my husband 6 years ago and left the marital home. We made an agreement after debts were paid etc on what equal share we each get out of the equity in the house. I have not pushed to get things sorted out as I knew he was not in a financial position to remove me from the mortgage.
Two weeks ago he contacted me saying he wanted to get things sorted. (I have since found out he wants to re marry). He has tried to remortgage, with my son as the second person and has been turned down. He asked to do the divorce now and sort the house at a later date. I have said it needs to be done together, lets face it I would be stupid to sign divorce papers without the money from the house. He has now said he will have to sell, my concern is last time he said he would do this he said he would cancel the mortgage payments which worries me. I do not have the funds to pay it on top of the rent i am also paying.
My new partner wants us to take the house over which i have explained i can't really do as I wouldn't get a mortgage right now to buy ex out so would not solve the divorce issue. Also i want to have my share 15k, pay off my debts then use the 10k to try and buy a new house. It would also meam moving areas amd both trying to get new jobs
I'm worried if ex stops paying mortgage this will affect my credit rating further.
I would also point out my ex is not really living there at the moment just my son and girlfriend.
I feel so stressed right now and stuck in the middle.
Any advice would be really really appreciated
