introducing myself

This is my second visit here after bottling out the first time round i will introduce myself , i am 38 years old female seperated from husband for 2 years but still married i have 4 children age 16 15 15 and 10 the 10 year old being my husbands , i met him in sept 1997 and we married in 2000 seperated in march 2007 , up to now we half been paying half each of a mortgage on a house we own together , but he wants out asap , we are on fairly good terms so far but can see this getting ugly because he announced the other day he cant pay the mortgage any more because hes had his hours cut at work , so its left to me to pay for the minute and i really cant afford it . x

you are in a similar situation to me in regards to your mortgage. if he can no longer afford his half, i really don't think much can be done about it. i am trying to pay the full mortgage and my own rent and the mortgage is starting to cause all sorts of problems between me and stbx. i want her to agree to sell in the new year at the latest or it may be re possessed by the bank. have you got your name down with the local housing associations? when i mention this stbx gets really annoyed but it will come to that i expect. it is unpleasant to contemplate but we can't find any other way, the best of luck sigh.

hi chris , no i havnt got my name down on any list,thing is this was a council house that was given to me when my children were small and after i met and married my x we decided to buy it through the right to buy scheme so i doubt they would help me again , x

See if you can get mortgage switched to interest only for a bit to buy some time.
