Texas
My ex-boyfriend and I purchased our home in June '09 and collected the first time home buyers' tax credit. We signed the title as single and not married. We are both 50% owners as I understand it. Since then, he has moved out and gotten an apartment. That was about 5 months ago. Now he has lost his job and is slowly moving back in. He is barely helping with the mortgage payment at all. I need to know my options for moving out or getting him out of the house. I would prefer to get him off of the mortgage, title, and everything else. Anyone have any advise? I've read a little about the partition action but I'm not sure if this is right for me.
