Can anyone advise
My ex partner unmarried has left the property and we have agreed a transfer of equity to me . Spanner in works he has told me he's getting married in the foreseeable . So I'm just wondering if that happens does the new partner automatically own half his assets ( house) if the equity transfer hasn't been finalized .
Thanks

Nothing.
Your ex partner still has an interest in the property.
I could ask who paid what but that is your business and something you and he need to agree.
His new partner, fiancee, wife to be may want to get things sorted ASAP0 -
No. At worst he and new spouse mught jointly own 50%.But best to resolve asap (as should have happened as soon as your relationship ended which I assume must have been a while back if he's now getting married).But if you've agreed on financial terms there's no reason to delay: simply complete TR1 etc and hand over the money!(or is there an existing and/or new mortgage to be dealt with?)0
