Marital home
“Wife & I separated over 2yrs ago...we own our property...she has been living in with our chid. I want to buy her out with my 50/50 share of the equity but she refuses & says she is entitled to at least a 60/40 share because she is the main carer...our child doesn't want to move house & it's upsetting her which is why I want to move back in & buy my wife out. Is it true she is entitled to a larger share of equity than I simply because she has our child more than I when I pay child support & my wife also work”
“Because our house is worth over £250,000 that even though the kids will be living with me that we would have to split the house 50/50”
“I’ve lived in this house all my life. The court can’t and won’t make me sell it.”
“The wife always gets the house in any divorce.”
“My spouse and I have separated and he wants me to sell the former marital home, which is jointly owned. I am in a position to buy him out but he is refusing to agree to that and is insisting we sell. I don’t want to leave but he says he will force me.”
“The house is just in my name and I want to sell it. My wife can’t stop me from doing that.”
“The house is in my husband’s name only, so I have no rights.”
“It isn’t wrong for me to break into my own property if I have been locked out by my partner, as I am a joint owner.”
“If I move out of the family home, I will lose my right relating to it.”
