My partner and his ex jointly own a home. They seperated 6 years ago and divorced over 3. He paid all the mortgage for first 3 years and half each for last 3. Both adult children have left home and he has said he wants to sell the property. Ex has agreed to sell and it has sold quickly but now she is saying she will delay as long as possible so that the sale falls through, she will drag her heels in finding a new property and there will be a long chain etc etc - is there anything he can do or is there a reasonable timescale he should give her to buy somewhere else?
