Hiya,
DH and I have been separated for a few months. He wants me to buy him out of the house. Theoretically I can afford this, but I would be sailing really close to the wind every month.
He has seen a solicitor who has told him that he can either force me to sell the house (our kids are 6 and 9) or make me pay rent to him for his half of the house as long as he pays his half of the mortgage. Is this correct?
I thought as long as the kids were dependant, the spouse who left cannot force you to sell the house!
Currently we split the kids half the week each, but this is clearly not working and I hate being a part time parent. I cannot see this going on until the youngest leaves 'home'. How easy would it be for me to get custody? If he contests it, what would be the liklihood of me being successful?
Please help...I'm losing my sanity here!
