I am asking this on behalf of my brother.
Is he able to remove his x from the house title.
The x left him, was having another relationship at the time.
Walked out on all the children.
They have now been separated for 3yrs, never married.
He is a hard, hard worker and pays for everything. Does not receive anything from the x, I mean anything. He helps her financially at times.
His x will sometimes suggest to him about selling the house.
She flip flops and says I won’t take anything when the house is sold, and she sometimes says she will.
He wants to sell, the only reason he is not selling is because she doesn’t deserve any of the money when he does sell and also if she does want half it will be harder for him to provide for the children, he pays private school fees, medical fees, you name he pays it.
He has raised 3 children which are the mother’s, he doesn’t regret this at all, 2 are now out and 1 continues living with his ‘dad’ my brother.
He is now raising 2 children which are biologically his and hers.
The house is mortgaged, he has spoken with the bank in regards to her name being off the title, they are fine with this, the only issue is how does he remove her name from the title.
I would appreciate any advice.
