I got divorced and allowed my ex to remain in the house if she pays the mortgage on time all the time. The problem is, she said she would refinance the house when she builds up her credit which was 3 years ago. There is nothing in the divorce papers that tells her when she must refinance. It only says, once she sells, I get half. Is there some type of acceptable deadline to when she needs to refinance the house into her name? The title and mortgage are under my name only. So, now since we've been divorced for 3 + years does she still hold the meaning of marriage property or does that expire at some time? Does that mean I can refinance my house without her consent to get my half of the equity because it is my house? I can't even buy my own place because that mortgage is over my head. What can I do?
