My question involves divorce in the State of: PA
I got divorced in January 2008, and my ex was awarded the house. The house loan is still in both our names. I just looked at my credit report, and ex is over 30 days late on the house payment. I called the lender and they told me that my ex has been paying late since for the last 6 months. I asked what I could do to get my name off of the house, and they said ex would have to refinance it in ex's name, but can't because ex doesn't have a job (unemployment) and ex's credit is terrible. Payment is under $300 a month and ex can't pay it? I pay enough child support that could pay that payment and a lot more. So, my question is what can I do to get my name off the house so ex cannot ruin my credit for the next 30 years? Also, can I call Domestic Relations and have them force her to pay mortgage since it is my children's primary home? Ex has been buying luxuries instead of paying bills. Divorce decree states that if lender comes after me to pay, I can choose to pay and then take her to court and get my money back, but I don't have the money to pay it. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
