When selling a house for a divorce, if a down payment was made, does the person get it back before house is split up?

Morghan Leia Richardson
Answered by attorney Morghan Leia Richardson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Richardson Legal PLLC
The answer really depends on the down payment: was a gift to you and your husband, or just a gift to your husband? Generally, any equity put down from one person will be credited back first before the remaining equity is divided. It sounds like your MIL put down some money and lives in the house, making payments, and she may be an owner of the house with you and your husband, in which case she would get her money and equity back. Talk to a lawyer in person to get a more detailed answer because property issues are very fact specific. Good luck!

How will this house be handled during a divorce

Kristen Prata Browde
Answered by attorney Kristen Prata Browde (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Browde Law, P.C.
The house payments would most likely be the equivalent of rent - and if you don't own the house, it isn't yours to divide. There are two kinds of custody, legal (which means decision making) and residential (where the kids live) - and those are generally negotiated. If your spouse has all the money it's likely the court would order him to pay your legal fees - so feel free to call attorneys and discuss the situation.

Kristen Prata Browde
Answered by attorney Kristen Prata Browde (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Browde Law, P.C.
You're worrying about evidence when you don't really need any. A divorce on the grounds of the marriage being irretrievably broken is obtained by a single affidavit by either party swearing that the marriage has broken down, the breakdown has lasted for more than six months, and that it is irretrievable.
