My husband of three years (but who has lived with me for five years) and paying towards my mortgage, which is in my sole name,is somewhat distraught.Since splitting from his ex-wife six years ago,she has ran up arrears. The building society obviously would not release him from their mortgage because of said arrears. Finally his ex-wife has finally managed to re-mortgage and my husband is now released. However we now want to move house and have been told that it may be a problem because his name was of course on the mortgage and was in arrears for many years.Will and should we be penalised for her failure to pay?(posted 8608 days ago)
