Hi,
I'm divorced and have made a consent order where I agreed to pay my ex a lump sum as his share of the house. I continue to live in the marital house with my 10 year old son. I'm now in the position to remortgage. Ex agreed to have his name removed from the mortgage verbally. But when the paperwork comes, he refused to sign it. He said it's not in the consent order. From what I can understand, I can do whatever I want with the house once my ex received the lump sum/his share of the house. There's a statement on the order
'on or before the determining event the applicant respondent wife shall have the right to purchase the respondent petitioner husband's interest in the property for nil consideration'
Where do I stand in this situation? Will I be able to bring my ex to court because I've already buy him out.
He hasn't contributed towards the mortgage for the last 5 years and to this date.
Anybody in the similar situation before? Advice please.
Many thanks.
