Hi, I’m just hoping for some advice from anyone who may have been in a similar situation because I feel completely lost and out of my depth.
im a 29 year old woman and I’ve been with my partner since I was 17, we had our first child when I was 19, married when I was 22, we bought our first house when I was 24 and had our 2nd child when I was 25. Our relationship hasn’t been easy to say the least and as the years have passed I have come to realise that I have been controlled financially and emotionally and more recently physically abused. In the last 3 years I have tried to leave several times and I am now on my final attempt after a physical attack, I am in a position where I can leave the mortgaged property and move into a private rental with the council, my only concern is that if I leave, I will lose my rights to the equity on the property when it sells. Has anyone had this issue before and what was the outcome? Thanks you
