What is the name of your state? New Mexico (community property state)
After only two years of marriage I am filing for divorce. All matters have been agreed upon but one, the house. I purchased this home in my own name, as well as my parents (they had to co-sign) So, there are three names on the mortgage. The house has always been in my name, plus I've spent $30,000 (all of my own money, from my own bank account) on the home in renovations. My spouse has invested nothing. Is he entitled to anything? Does he get 50%? Or 25% since there are two other names on the lease? Or nothing?
I can't seem to find any info on a mortgage, pre-marriage, that has been co-signed. Any info anyone has would be much appreciated.
Thanks for reading this.
