Oh boy..this one doesn’t sound very fun!!
Is your husbands name on any of the documents for the house?? If not then I think you need to talk to a lawyer about what he is able to get from it. I don’t think he should get anything if his name isn’t on the document. There is no way to show that he paid for the house and not you unless there is proof…check stubs but how many guys keep those??
Good luck and consult a lawyer immediately!

you can’t— he’s in-titled to a share of community property(unless it’s owned by someone else and they let you guys stay there).
since he put money toward the mortgage, give him his money from the 4 years he contributed to the home — sorry, but that’s how those things go if you married and didn’t have a prenup

What you agree upon – unless someone is stupid enough to sign the type of paper the lawyer of my “ex” presented me before I got one of my own, is completely irrelevant.
You’re probably going to have to write him a big check.

I was in the same boat, and didn’t get squat! In fact she was able to buy a new home after we split, then include her new mortgage payment for computing allimoney. GO FIGURE and GO GET A LAWYER! That’s your only safe bet on this issue.

At the very least, according to community property laws, your husband is entitled to half of the appreciation on the home you owned prior to the marriage. However, since he has been helping with the mortgage payments, it gets even more complicated. (He’s probably entitled to a portion of the original value based on his share of mortgage payments.) Not much you can do about it…and only a lawyer can sort it out.
Bottom line, you can’t keep ALL the money away from your husband.
