What is the name of your state? wisconsin
i'm going through a divorce and my ex and i agreed that i would keep the house, since the equity equaled what he had in his retirement fund, and my son wouldn't be uprooted. now he and his lawyer are trying to force me to take his name off the mortgage so he can buy another house. my lawyer said the judge will not force me to do that. i'm afraid i don't have enough credit built up in my own name to obtain a mortgage by myself, since every major purchase (cars, etc.) had my ex's name on the loan, too. i really want to keep the house, since it would be more cost-effective than rental property. any advice?
