My relationship of 7 years just ended, and unfortunately, we had purchased a home together on 9/2003. Upon my leaving, we had agreed to have the home appraised(which we did, paid 50/50) so that if she chose to make any further improvements in the home, she would not owe me equity beyond the date I occupied the home, and contributed to the expenses. Our verbal agreement was that she pay the house payment, and I paid any additional costs, including groceries, which added up to more than the cost of the house pmt per month. Am I 'screwed because I didn't save every grocery and personal need receipt for the past for years? Another important thing to mention is my name is on the home, but not on the loan. She is on both. Her lawyer has encouraged her to send me a monthly bill for half of the house payment on an ongoing basis. Any suggestions from anyone that may have had a similar encounter. She owes me $13,500-half the equity, so it is not a small amount!
