I am writing from VA in search of some much needed help.
I have been married for almost 6 yrs. I was living on my own and had an apt when we first started dating. He had moved in with his parents after a recent separation from his first wife and left everything with her. He has 2 children from his first wife and I have one child from a previous. We have no children together, thank goodness. We have been contemplating a divorce for the past 2 yrs. We talked about selling the house and had a real estate agent come out and look at the house only recently. After talking to them, he decided to let me buy him out so I could keep the house. He wanted $19,000. So I went thru the mortgage company and got approved to refinance and get enough out to pay him. I guess he didnt think that I would get approved for the loan and is now trying to back out of the deal. Granted we had nothing in writing it was all verbal. Well I am supposed to close in one week on the house and now he is refusing to sign the papers and wants more money. He stated that we never had an agreement at all. But he has been out looking for a house himself. The problem is he can't find anything with in his price range. Like I said he has 2 kids and has a child support payment and I know what he can afford. But his parents have again offered to let him move back in with them and he is refusing. Stating he is not leaving our house and will not let me keep it. We also mutually agreed on the furniture we would be keeping and since most of it was mine before the marriage. There are only a few things to even divide. Of course he is denying all of that now. My question is what can I do about the house. I really need to be away from him. He is making it very difficult to stay there with him and it is not fair for my child to have to sit and watch this go on. He has also told me that he will not grant me a divorce and that his parents have told him they will provide him financially to keep me in court. I was like then why dont they provide you a place to live instead of doing this to me. I am tired of fighting and really need to be away from him. There are alot of other issues as well. Please help!!!!
