Hi everyone.
My question is my wife and I bought our current home together , we both put equal amounts in for the deposit, if we got a divorce I have no problem with splitting everything 50/50 our savings everything, I am the only one working, I have a step daughter with my wife .
My fear is my wife said she would take half my other house which I bought before I met my wife , she has never even seen the house let alone put a single penny into it . Can she make me sell it for half the money , we will have been married 5 yrs in December.
Thank you for reading
