    Angry How to Get My Spouse to Sign Off the Title of the House

    how do you avoid a forced sale of a home that I have been paying every cent on the mortgage and living in. I have tried to reason with my ex wife to get her name removed from the title so that I can take over the mortgage and remove her of her financial responsibilities. I have been pre approved of a new mortgage with money to pay off all debt that was accumulated with in teh 5 yrs of marrage. and to give her what was left over and she refuses and her lawyer wants to force sale of my home. Can I just buy the house from her?

    Why would she object to having you buy out her interest? Is it a problem of agreeing to a fair price?

    I dont know why she is having issues When she moved out of the home she removed mostly all the house hold content against a court order stating that none of the house hold content was to be removed from the property unless written aggreement from the court of quees bench. I also paid her a 10,000.00 lump sum order taht stated it was for spousal support and or against the value of the home. we owe 240,000.00 and the home was appraised at 350,000.00 we have a total debt of 145,000.00 in bills that acumulated in the marrage that I have been paying my self. I think that she is not standing up against her lawyer and he is dictating to her of what to do. I just want to know what happens if he gets the rights to a forced sale of the home and is there a way that I can fight it. I live in Alberta Canada

    If this is still being litigated, and everybody agrees that the $350,000 appraisal is reasonable, you can ask the court to let you buy out her interest. I doubt that the judge will much care that she wants to force the sale of the house - it's all dollars and cents to him.

    Do you have a lawyer yet?
