Hi there, Me and my partner bought house 3 years ago and as I wasn'tt 18 yet my namecouldn'tt be placed on mortgage etc.. we bought house together.. I have paid alot more than him, (hes been out of work several time, presently 8 mths) My name is on everything else,, rates, electric etc I pay everything obviously because hes not working but even when he was I probably did pay more,, Now we have a 1 year old daughter and are having a rough patch, I was just hoping someone could give me any ideas what rights i have, as my name is on everything else, plus i can get bank statement proving that on the same day every month i lifted cash and put it into his acc for the mortgage coming out. do i have rights as a common law partner and mother of his child if we were to sell up.. |

You definitely need to see a lawyer about your position. You have not given all the details here, obviously, but the position is not necessarily as bleak as some of the contributors are suggesting.
You do need to ensure that all the paperwork from the time of buying the house is kept safe, especially any regarding where money came from and what the intentions of both of you were at the time. This is vital, due to the fact that you were not able to hold a legal title until you were 18.
That does NOT mean that you have no stake in the property. As any property lawyer worth the name will tell you, you can have an equitable stake in the property before you are 18 (as is shown by case law). Effectively, although the deeds, etc were in the name of your partner he is said to be holding "on trust" for him and you jointly if the intention was always that you were buying the house together.
Depending on the position, you may also have obtained legal rights of occupation in relation to the property. This is a very valuable stake indeed, and one which the courts have readily upheld in other cases.
So, in short -
don't panic;
seek professional advice;
encourage your partner to have the deeds (and mortgage) changed;
and forget the "common law" thing - it's meaningless.
I hope that things go well for you. |

the first thing who said you couldn't have your name on the mortgage, he could be your witness as to your request for a joint partner in obtaining the said house, Now you should call the person back to change this as you are of age now, make an appointment with your Financial adviser or did you have done through a bank if so thats better, because they will have all the details,do it now,i am asking myself if you couldnt sign how did they arrange who could afford to buy the house,did he have enough to pay,did they or did you take this on your own,do see where iam comming from, was the financial adviser present when he signed well start therebut do now! houndog |

the house belongs entirely to him as he is on the deeds |

you could always suggest to him that you now get your name on the deeds, otherwise keep all your bank statements just in case you do split and these will stand up in court to prove that you have paid, if you do split he has no chance of paying the mortgage if he is out of work |

unfortunately if your name isn't on the mortgage or the house deeds I don't think you will have much of a say what happens to the property as legally you are not named as the owner, can you not speak to a solicitor and look at your choices, there may be a way to get your name included on the deeds. |

Sorry, but you are conned. Get out of the relationship right now but
cancel all the bills on your names...the houses are not very good at
this time but also, it's not going to hurt you if you find some information.
You have nothing but bills and hardwork. No right whatsoever in the money your partner will get if he sells the house - but try to seek help of an Attorney (if you can afford it) and get out of his loving con. |

it depends if your partner protests that you paid the mortgage.was he claiming benefits for mortgage?you should be protected by common law but go to your nearest citizens advice bureau and they'll tell you all you need to know.it may involve costly fees.try and get put on mortgage asap if poss.you could say that when it comes to remortgage time it will be easier to get a better rate if its a joint mortgage esp if he's unemployed(i work in a bank).
encourage your partner lots when jobhunting to build his confidence and maybe things will get better when he gets a new job.he could also do things such as mystery shopper for extra cash.good luck with it all |
