The divorce decree should have stated explicit instructions that he Quit Claim the property to you, that you refinance the mortgage etc. within so many days/months of the execution of the decree. If the language in your decree is as you stated, it is unclear and ambiguous.
If he refuses to cooperate you must go back to court to enforce the intent of the decree.
