I hear you on not doing the work of the D. I have not done anything until recently but talk to my L. I have to run out soon but wanted to clarify that I am working toward settlement stuff now bc stbx is trying to rush to have our house put on the market in early sept. In fact the other day I called him out on doing zero toward the D all summer and now trying to rush this part. I said I was not going to rush to a major decision like that.

I recently decided I want to explore buying him out of the house and taking it on myself. To figure out how much it will be to do that I need to see where we stand to see if there's going to be something to offset his equity share or help me finance this. That is where I am looking now, and I need his financial info to do it.

I'll try to address your other excellent thoughts later tonight or tomorrow when I am not on my phone!
