My girlfriend of 4 years and I have decided to break things off. We bought a place together last year, but since the housing market is so hard to get into I'm not willing to sell. She's willing to have me buy her out, but I don't know how much is fair.
So far we have paid about $9000 towards the mortgage, which means if I were to buy her out she'd only be owed about $4500. This means that she is getting back less than what we both each initially put into the down payment, but because of all the fees and everything else associated with buying a house, not all of our money went towards the mortgage.
Is $4500 a fair amount to by her out, or does she deserve more since I'm keeping the place?
