Me and my partner own a 1/4 share of a house and pay rent on the other 3/4 Through a local houseing company.. If he were to go bankrupt would we loose the house as we can't just sell it on the open market or even remorgage on this type of house... Many thanks

Your partner's share of the beneficial interest - ie the 1/4 share would vest in his Trustee in bankruptcy, were he to go down this route. What value would you put on this, and do you think that the current mortgage lender would be prepared to give you a further advance?
