I have already commented on a post about this but I just wanted other peoples opinions
My ex husband entered an Iva a year ago I now I want to buy him out of the house/mortgage
I am in the process hopefully of doing this with my solicitor and his IP
He has got Equity in the property and they are having a meeting in a few weeks to discuss him being released from the property with creditors
I went to see about getting my own mortgage which I can get to buy him out and have the house in just my name I’m just hoping that the creditors agree with this is my confusion again is him being released from the property is it just the house or mortgage too, he has told me he will not sign over the house but will he have too if I pay his equity?
It’s all so confusing and there’s just no help out there apart from expensive solicitors which Ivan paying a lot already
I just don’t want to pay anything unless I know he will have to sign the house over to me, any help out there please?

He will have to transfer the house to you with a formal transfer, if he does not sign, he does not get his share of the equity. In a nutshell you and him as the current owners are selling it to just you, in return ( the price for the sale) you are giving him his share of equity.

Thank you for your reply
The meeting with creditors is in 3 weeks I’m hoping they will all agree

Thank you
Just wondering what we’d do if he totally refused but surely he can’t
I will let you know soon
