Bought ex out, now wants furniture

120 Posts


So after a difficult road of buying my ex out which all completed last week, he has now said that he wants several items of furniture and will be picking them up when he picks up the rest of his things.
Due to his working circumstances, I gave him permission to collect the remainder of his things at a later date - already taken two car loads.
Has now said that he will be taking certain items from the house when he picks up the last of his things. Not giving him access to the house, everything will be in the garage and I’m having a witness with me, but just to confirm my sanity… he has no right to any items in the house now as I bought his share house and he received his payment?
I don’t know if he is entirely serious as he is very emotionally and verbally abusive so may just be a threat to get to me… which it has!

Difficult though it may be I think you need to have a discussion about this unless the contents were specifically included in the agreement if only to close it all down.
How accommodating you want to be is up to you. You could refuse all requests and tell him to sue you in court if he wants to. Or you could try and reach agreement.
Has caused £300-£400 in damage to the house while we were splitting which I haven’t pursued but might try to use a negotiation.
Whether he turns up with a van or not will show me what his mind set is… based on past history he says things to try hurt me and then changes his mind
