Life on Florida’s West Coast

Financial Ties

I’ve been divorced over a year now. Nonetheless, I still have several financial ties to my ex and I’m not comfortable with that fact. He has yet to actually get our house on the market and until it’s on the market, it’s not going to sell. Until it sells, we still own it together. I’m stuck paying for half the repairs as he lives in it with his girlfriend. That’s not a great deal for me, but even though he is contempt of court by not having it for sale yet – who can afford to go to court over every single infraction of an agreement? Not me.

There is also the issue of our car loans. The loans for both our cars are still in both our names. I have mine about paid off, but his is a much more expensive vehicle and there is still a way to go in getting that loan completed. I’m urging him to move the loan, but when he does he will no longer be able to obtain rates for new car loans and that is what is keeping him from moving his feet. I’ve told him that there are bad credit auto loans available from multiple sources, but I suppose it is going to come down to me actually doing the legwork to get the information. That’s fine with me. I’m just looking at any way to cut financial ties where I can. ? I won’t go into the other ways we are still connected financially. I can only hope they will resolve soon.

Is there some sort of legal option you can take to force him to sell the house? I’m sure that this is a common (and very unfortunate) problem with divorces. Is there anything you can do?

I can take it to court. That is so expensive, though. My lawyer could just write a letter to his lawyer — a much less expensive option that I will try first. He is going to sell it, but it poking along because he is comfortable there with his floozie ;)

The foremost concern of a person having a bad credit status who wants to avail a loan is the interest rate. Bad credit loans in general carry very high interest rate. It is difficult to find a lender offering bad credit loans at low interest rate but it’s not impossible. Bad credit loans offered at competitive interest rate are known as cheap bad credit loans.
