Hello during my divorce my ex wife was awarded to live in property for five years. In that five years she has to refinance and if she can't she must sell the property. June 2023 will be the five year mark. If she doesn't refinance does that mean the property must be sold by that time or she has to list it after? If she fails to list it can I list it since I am still on the loan and deed? Or do I have to go through the lovely process of contempt of court and then get it through them in writing I can list it for sale? I wanted to double check here a local attorney said it means it has to be listed after that time and if not I have to file contempt of court. But, is that necessary if I'm still an owner of the property? I just want to be prepared as she's tried supposedly several times and can't qualify for refinance so I foresee it being sold which I'll get a little under 50% of the profit.
