Hello
I have been paying the (joint) mortgage on my own for 4 months now, and this will continue for the next few years until our house is sold (my ex has agreed to keep the house on for two years for a few reasons relating to our child) A few people have asked me if he is still paying half of the mortgage, and they seem surprised when I say no. I assumed he wouldn’t have to pay towards it, and would just pay maintenance (which he is)
Is this right? Or does he have an obligation to pay towards the mortgage, as well as paying maintenance? Or does he just have to pay the latter? He is living with his Mum at the moment, if that is at all relevant!
I wanted to ask here before seeking legal advice…
Thanks xx
