House sale now children 18

[Start4040]

Hi all ,
I’m just wondering if anyone had any experience of what happens when your children and it’s time to sell the house to give ex their share previously agreed in the courts ? I have been trying to save but I don’t have the money, I have tried to get mortgage/ loan but I’m on a low wage and is not an option. I’m so worried as if I’m forced to sell the house I don’t think I will even be able to afford studio flat . My family have put in as much as they can but it’s no where near enough.
I’m so worried… it’s been hell waiting for this day and I don’t know what to do .
My ex is not a reasonable man and will be coming for this .
Any help advice greatly appreciated,
thank you :(

@mcmuffin22 true but we don’t know the buy out figure either? Could be £20k not £200k and with looming buyout years in the making changing careers/ additional jobs / getting prepared financially etc could all have been on the table - too often I hear “just don’t pay him” even my solicitor when I asked what would be the repercussion if I was late paying ex said with a wink….well he’d have to take you to court which could take years to be heard and then a for sale to go through
