So there is at least some hope for the OP!

It sounds like a very difficult situation, with no easy resolution. Just concentrate on what you want to happen, and why if it gets very mirky.

I think you'd be well advised to read the references given in the above posts and then go to a solicitor and confirm what has been said. Then start thinking about if/what settlement arrangement you are prepared to make if your husband is a bit awkward about this. Start negotiating with a minimum figure but have a limit you are prepared to pay in mind, if you are prepared to pay anything.

Good morning, yes the "home rights" issue has given me so hope.

I am not in the position to offer any settlement to my husband. I am in a lot of debt, as you may guess from my login name. The plan is, to try and negotiate settlements with my creditors and then try and repair my credit rating and hopefully buy again. Or if I have enough money left, I could buy shared ownership house if there was one available. I have 3 children, one of them is a newborn. The original plan was to do all with my husband but unfortunately he does not seem interested, we argue more and more. He is an alcoholic.

Bluebird, no I can't get back with my first husband, do you think it's funny?

Anyway, as deannaatrois says, I will have to see how the situation develops. There might not be an issue after all, maybe I will manage to catch him on a good day. It's not that I want to turf him out, and there is still chance that we can move together. It's just one great unknown with him at the moment.....

It sounds as though you and ex are on speaking terms at least?

Tell current hubby that ex is going to move back into the house and is planning to charge current hubby full rent. And there will be no spare bedroom.

Stop making things so comfortable for him so he won't have reason to want to stay.

You're thinking 3 steps ahead when you should be focusing on the immediate. Is your marriage retrievable? Will your husband get help for his problems?

Until you have firm answers to both of them i wouldn't do anything with the property.
