Husband filing for divorce, only his name on actual Mortgage, he wants to sell I want to keep it

Hi,

My husband is filing for divorce right now, We have 2 infants children and he wants to sell the house. I would like to keep it, specially because of the children. Only his name is on the Mortgage but we bought the house together after marriage. House has a value atm of $260k we still owe about $120k to the bank. I provided $40k for the downpayment and he provided $36k.

Is there a way I could keep the house and get a credit to pay future exhusband part and the rest of the money, would this be a Mortgage refinance?

I have no idea how I could achieve this. If we sell the house I don't want to pay rent but at the same time I've been a homemaker for the last 6 years and I have a good credit score and not sure if I can even get a credit

His name is on the mortgage and the note while your name is not on anything ? Or are.you on the deed? Where does your signature appear?

It wasn't making sense I can tell. Sometimes it just can't be expressed well. I try but I've been telling this story for 7 years of list sleep and tired eyes. It's a mess.

And usually I just get advice about hiring a lawyer. Lol I've talked to several but none are enthusiastic about challenging a banking institution with fraud. Despite the fact it happens all the time

Fair enough. Your situation did sound a mess.
