How to sell property ex partner isn’t compliant

lucesn

Hello, 

I have recently split from my partner (we were not married) after buying our first home together in 2016. We are both joint owners on the mortgage and never missed a payment. 

I desperately want to move on and get my name off the mortgage (alongside my equity I am entitled to) but he is dragging his heels to either take on the mortgage on his own (my preferred option) or putting the house up for sale. 

Any suggestions that won’t cost an arm and a leg? 

Thanks in advance!

Your best option?

Bribery, tell him that he can buy you out of the equity you have for like £1k less then he actually owes. Maybe more, maybe less, come to an agreement on an amount.  Cheaper then a court battle.
