My fiancee and I purchased a house in November 2006.. We are having relationship problems and want to break up. We can't sell the house because there is no equity. I am not movingout because made the down payment and I am paying the mortgage. He is refusing to move out and he even made the ridiculous suggestion that we live together as "roomates" ..I told him there was no way that I was going to be engaged to someone two months ago and now be their roomate. We both are on the deed.. what should we do? Please help!

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I know you know now, but never purchase anything that has a payment or note with anyone other than your husband. Not a boyfriend, not a fiance, not even a relative. I hope this is a lesson learned.
I would talk to an attorney and see what you can do to get him off the mortgage and title. You should also consult with a real estate agent. You might lose some money, but you would get rid of the house and him.
In the mean time. If you two are split up and are temporary "rommie" he needs to pay half of EVERYTHING...if he can't or won't tell him to get out because this is not a free ride.
You are right...no matter what do NOT move out. That is your house, you're paying for it.

it sounds like the movie the break up isnt there any way to mend your relationship alot of times when couples go through a stressful time such as buying a house and getting married people tend to drift apart try remembering the reason why you two were brought together in the first place maybe get some counseling there must have been somthing if you were engaged and bought a house together people give up so easily that the grass is greener on the other side and alot of people carry those regrets for the rest of their lives good luck and dont throw in the towel just yet

Both move out, rent the house out. Other than that, U R screwed, you will heave to sell the house at a loss. Consider it a lesson in life, and here is another pearl of wisdom....Marriage is NOT "just a piece of paper", do it before you buy property with a love partner. good luck dear.

Well you will have to sell or to come to some commerical arrangement. First of all he must start paying his share of the mortgage, particularly if he's living there. You could get some legal advice, particularly if you can prove that it is your money that made the down payment and that you continue to pay the mortgage alone. Sadly if you tell him to get out and he won't you will have to tell him that you have no option but to pursue legal channels to get him out. I

this is what you do you wait for him to go to work change the locks throw his stuff out or just go crazy and then by those actions he will realize you not just any girl who let him control the decisions that your money had contact with so let him know he got to go and that just the way it is. or if you dont want to be a lunatic just sit down with him and tell him that he had no money for the house so it makes it yours since you paid for it and tell him he need to look for some other place to go.

The kind of help you need is not available on Yahoo - contact a lawyer.
p.s. - Everyone - this is why you don't buy a house with someone until you're married!!!!!!!!

you can still sell the house and pay off morgage, if anything left split it.
if unlucky you can't sell for what you owe, you should split what more you need to pay off morgage

That sucks that he wants to sponge off of you. Is there any way you can work this out?
