I currently own a house which is 50% - 50% share with my Ex for both Loan n S&P
Also, my Ex does not seems like tends to sell the house as I not sure what kind of trick is he playing. I have ask few salesman helps to sell off the house dy but now the market is so low and seems hardly get buyer...
no one is occupying the house and it is a new property....
And, I am not really affordable to pay for the house anymore as every month need to pay around 1800myr each person... so I wonder, if I refuse to make the payment, will bank lelong my house?
If yes, what is the impact on myself? I will be sue bankruptcy?
If being sue bankruptcy, again, what is the impact??
Hope that someone could help me on this!!!
Thanks!!!!
Actually, after giving some thought about your case, can try the below:
1) Tell agent your property is available for sale.
2) If there is an interested purchaser, told the buyer you use purchaser lawyer (the purpose is to save cost since you cannot afford any legal fees; assuming only). If you can afford, do use your own lawyer.
3) After SnP is available, you sign on the SnP first. And tell the lawyer to call your EX to ask him to sign at the lawyer firm.
Two options will happen:
a) he will go and sign the SnP.
In case this happen, you do not need to waste your time to negotiate or see him if you don't want to. The property successfully sold off without foreclosure and no bankruptcy case.
b) he refuse to sign and swear !@#@#%$#^%$* the whole world.
In case this happen, as per suggestion just now. Stop paying your portion and let the bank deal with it. Either he pay the whole portion or he goes down the sinking ship with you. If he can afford to pay, just let it be. If he cannot pay, after warning letter from bank or foreclosure letter, he most probably will go and sign (unless he don't mind going bankrupt). Then the worst case scenario comes to play.
There a few catchs:
1) You tell the agent the property is available for sale. You say the other owner is also willing to sell. (sorry Agent

)
2) You tell the purchaser you use his/her lawyer. He/she will put up some money for the draft SnP. Hence you save legal fees until your EX sign then you pay your portion of legal fees. (sorry Purchaser

)
3) You tell the purchaser lawyer to direct informed the other owner to come up the firm to sign. Let the lawyer deal with him. Either the lawyer gets a good scolding from him or he comes up and sign. (sorry Lawyer

)
Sorry, just try to shoot some ideas here, not sure if it will work. If it doesn't work, only then you opt for the worst case scenario.
Boss
