Hi Everyone
I was in a defacto relationship for 17months .
We have a child who was 6mnths old when I left the relationship.
I owned the house we lived in , he moved in with me .
He did not contribute to the house payments / rates / maintenance of house in anyway .
Can he make me sell the house / pay him out ?
If so , what is he entitled too ?
There is very little equity in the house .
Do I just have to pay him half of the equity & the bank gets the rest ?
Thanks for any advice you can give me , guys .
Totally stressed out & am getting many different answers to what he can have.
