Re: Problems with a house with ex partner

Hi I am not divorced I was living with someone for 12 months and we bought a house together (biggest mistake of my life) I kicked him out after 12 months, he had so much debt etc etc. I had to track him down, he wont take his name off the mortgage and I can't sell the house it is in negative equity, the only option open to me is repossession voluntary or involuntary the only way I can finally get rid of loser who I have just heard is going bankrupt with his new loser girlfriend, I am not sure which way to go I have a new partner who would buy the house then I can stay in it, this is very complex and a real nightmare, I am just managing to stay sane, I have a good job as does my new partner who is incredibly supportive but this is so hard to cope with, can anyone offer me some advice pretty please

Hi Kendall. welcome to Wikki. I dont have the answers you seek but can you not let your new man buy the house & pay him off? Its not a good time to sell but a god time to pay someone off i think.
You will get lots of answers here so keep looking in, good luck in whatever you decide & congrats on getting rid of a loser! Hope your new life is much better,
Cindy

If he is going bankrupt, you may be in a position to negotiate with his supervisor. So long as you have an income that can pay your mortgage, you'll certainly be in with a shout of staying put.

Hi Thanks for your replies, I can't liaise with him he is a complete drunken idiot as is his new partner, I don't know for sure if and when he is going bankrupt, he wont help he just wants to see me out on my heels and my two boys, it really is a dreadful mess I could not have believed this could be allowed to happen
