Thankyou for replies so far, would i be liable for his solicitors costs as well as court costs if push came to shove ?
It depends what steps you take to try to settle this out of court.
Offering to buy him out at market value would be optimal.
If you offer him a few thousand, the court may see this as some effort, but probably not enough.
If you can get 20% together, that would be reasonable i'd think0 -
Yes hes living rent free in a council house while his girlfriend doesnt declare him.
That's not really good for you either
He could argue that you are living using his money, and actually ask for you to pay towards his rent. (as you are refusing to release equity) - that wont necessarily happen, but he can ask for it 0 -
He has just been to the house and i again have offered hin 5000 less than half the value and he wants more, i cant reason with an idiot.0

Where di you the the 'value' from? if it's what you paid for it, then he's right to turn it down. But obviously i don't know what the value is, so 5k could be alot, or very little, in comparison.
Did you offer it for his half, or as a first payment, with 5k to go too?0 -
He isnt here at the moment as police are involved and ive applied for an injunction as he hit dd2 weeks ago and he broke front door last friday, he has a history of violence, the house is worth about 70 so offered him 30,.0

Is there any injunction at the moment?It was valued about 3 months ago, then we dont have to pay estate agents ect.
Your problem may be he thinks its worth more, and you've not offered half of even that value. What's he asked for?0 -
He asked for 38 , and injunctions can take up to a month.0
