What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? I live in Illinois and I am having an issue with an ex fiance of mine. We are not legally married but we do own a home together.
We haven't owned the home very long, just a little over a year, but unfortunately things fell apart and we have broken up. My issue is that she is not willing to agree to sell the house unless I sign a legal document that says that if we incur any financial loss on the house I would be fully responsible for it.
I do not wish to sign this document seeing as how we are both on the title of the home, and that we both should be responsible if any loss is obtained. But again, she will not agree to sell unless I do and I need her signature in order to move forward with putting the house on the market. What legal rights do I have here and what actions could I take in order to resolve somthing like this?
