Do you have any record, written or witnessed that you jointly paid for the house. Any other commitment, definitely it should be in writing or witnessed.\n\nDO your own homework first. The ownership deed carries your name, in case of faulty payment schedule if you are equally responsible then you are equally rewardable too. In case she has not asked you for any CAPEX sharing earlier, that is her fault.\n\nProvided, you have to agree too -leaglly that is, for her to sell the house. If that deed gives you the right then she cannot keep you out. In fact did you share any or part of the equity, and have record or receipt to show for it? If yes, then it is an open and shut case. She will loose more money than you even by going to court, she had waited long for this and now it she pays a price with a premium.\n\nOtherwise, you have no say/no record whatsoever, just remember that the cost of 1.5" of patch and two moons was that much and hope you got your moneys worth.

Sure, if it's worth less than $10,000.\n\nI once sold a house for $6.000.  That's what it was worth in its location and condition,

no change is required, she said it herself. and as far as your ex being on the deed will be a problem in time, what if something would happen? does your ex have any rights to her 1/2? look into just changing your names on the deed, the courts may be a help full tool with this, or maybe it already has, did the judge have a ruling on this during your divorce? and if so did you do anything? just trying to keep you out of the doghouse down the road. good luck with the new family.

The court's have contingencies for most problems....but it would be worth your time to talk to an attorney.  You may be able to petition the family law judge for a specific order authorizing you to transfer title to the home and sell the property without her signature.  Do it right the first time....it could be a legal nightmare if you sell the property without proper legal authority.

Have you ever heard its cheaper to keep her. Have you tried working it out b/c otherwise you are going to lose a lot of money. If you can't work it out try finding a better lawyer to help you.

hey there white rabbit,  I am studying to become a lawyer and I know this answer.  It really depends on who's name is on the mortgage/deed for the house, if both of yours is on the deed/mortgage then 50% of the house will always be yours.  If it is just your significant other's name on the house, if you leave that house under a legal separation and not divorce after 90 days the marital domain will be terminated and you will lose your rights to it.  I SUGGEST THAT YOU GET A LAWYER RIGHT NOW!!  i bet your spouse is trying to sneak one by you. You do not need to tell your spouse you are talking to a lawyer but get advice now, it'd cost like $100 to talk to a lawyer for an hour and many specialize in this sort of thing.  GET A LAWYER NOW!  It may be better off getting a divorce by the way...

Why would you want to? Do you love your kids? Then you need to fight for them. If you truely have no interest in them anymore (that sounds horrible), then you can sign away your parental rights to the kids. \n\nAs to the child support issue, your ex-wife would need to sign a document saying that she waives her right to child support. However, this is not money for her, it's money for your kids. I would think long and hard about screwing your kids before you do that.

She can do this, but it may count as a taxable gift since she will have basically deeded over 1/2 interest in the property to you.\nBetter that she puts the property in a trust with her as the trustee and you as beneficiary.  It can then pass to you with no tax consequence and avoid probate.

Have her sign a quit-claim deed.  I doubt if you can get her to sign it though without some kind of compensation.  Consult your lawyer

You're married...so there shouldn't be a distinction between the two of you. If she helps you buy a house, you're helping yourself. If you're still having "your stuff" "her stuff", get counseling before buying a home. You should have gotten counseling before getting married, for that matter.

There is no Guilt , what Guilt? U would feel guilty ,if u continue with her (him) without real desire to be together, do not only look now to the effect of the divorce,, but look further ,,to later, Yes, maybe she is upset , she feel victimized ,, but actually this is the right thing to do ,if people can not live together for any reason (even if  the reason does not look fair for one party)..You give urself a chance to find happiness (if u love someone than her, what is better for her (ur wife) ... to live with someone who doesn't love her (and u live with someone u do not love !!) , Or  to have a second chance to find a suitable mate for each other..As For children ,it is better for them to be with happy parents ,  even if they are separated (better then watching them fighting and unhappy ,)I presume u r fair , giving her, her legal and ,what u both think it is her rights , and the complete rights of ur children(financial, Care....etc)and more a little ...One of -ur ex wife -rights, that u become a friend to her, after all, u spent some (even if it is little) good time together,,wish her luck to find a good mate, wish urself luck to have happiness with new mate,work together to have healthy children,,,Good luck

If htey gave you the house and you are paying the notes, do you have a ocntract with them?  Has it been transferred to your name?  These are things you need to check out.  Sounds like they still own the house, and if so I would take my 842.00 and go elsewhere to live or have to put up with controlling in-laws and a nosey sister-in-law.

It really depends on the state. Which lawyer were you talking to? Hers? Yours?  \n\nIn many states only the wifes 1/2 of the community property is hers.

If the house was paid for with community funds, she has a case.  (A case, not a sure victory.) There are lots of possible reasons (for instance, it may be that in using community funds, it is a breach of the contract, so the house is community property -- or it may be that the agreement would be found unconscionable, esp. if she had no legal advice prior to agreeing), and lots of facts that cannot be determined from your question.  But she should consult a lawyer.

I would be interested but im pretty sure that even though that you have the deed to the property doesnt the government have to make the final determination of whom can buy there.\nI remember something to that nature my ex saying.
