What happens now?

[Mads3216]

I just need some advice from knowledge or personal experience please.
I need to move out of my house because my ex partner is abusive and making my life hell.
I'm going to have to rent and I’m going to try my best to keep paying my half of the mortgage but does anyone know if my rights to the house would go if I didn’t pay it?
Or as it’s in joint names as long as it gets paid it doesn’t make a difference
TIA

The mortgage company holds you both 100% responsible for the mortgage.

I would keep up the payments if possible.

Is he likely to not pay making your getaway harder?

When I left my abusive ex husband I organised a mortgage break in case he played silly beggars.

Good luck to you.

What made my mind up was imagining myself as a very old woman sitting in an armchair looking back at my life and wondering what my regrets would be and staying with him was my biggest one.

My brothers ex wife stopped paying soon after leaving as she had rent to pay too. She still got her 50% 2yrs later during the divorce (she bought him out and moved back in)
