Hello,

Can anyone help me here? This is my situation. Me and my sister bought a house back in 2004 as an investment property. Everything was going fine she was supposed to get tenants to live in the house with her and she never did. I have never lived in the house and do not even maintain a room. Around March of last year she got a boyfriend and he moved in so he was paying towards the mortgage. I fealt i should be paying less since I dont live there and I did not want to pay for their lifestyle. So i called her and we agreed on the phone that I would pay less than both of them. They get married in july of 06 and I get served lawsuit papers in sept of 06. The suit is Sale In Lieu Of Partition. I want to fight it but am i wrong for paying less. Does any one know what my options are and how fast of a process this is? Any help will be greatly appreciated !!!!!

Not sure why you would you want to fight it? They want to sell the house, I don't believe it has anything to do with who is paying how much towards the mortgage.

Hang on, others may be able to give you more details...

The amount you get for the sale might be less because you were paying less on the loan.

Another possibility is for you to buy the house.

yea but do u think i should be paying an even amount as her and her husband although i dont live in the house and dont even maintaina a room???

You aren't paying on occupancy of the house, but the portion of the house owned by you. Your portion of ownership is defined by what you paid on it. The fact that they used the house has no bearing on that.
