Quote: He wants me to sign a deed giving him sole financial rights to the condo. If I don't do it he will probably divorce me. What would you do?
Don't believe a word of it!!!!
It IS a business deal. When my H and I had been seperated 3 months, he came to me and asked me to sign a quit claim on a half million $ condo he was buying.....this meant that I had no claim to it. I said, "NO". So he became so kissy nice to me. I didn't fall for it.....
In the end, he bought the condo, but my name is on the title as co owner, because he bought it while we were still married. Four months after the sale was final, he filed for D. No, I do not think that if I would have given him the title free and clear that he would not have D me. I KNOW he would have still done it. But now, I own half of it.
DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING!! If he has to have it so badly, put your name on it. Call a lawyer and spend the money for a consultation. There are abouit 50 different ways to be listed on a deed. Ask the L which would benefit you the most if you were to D.
Now that H and I are getting D.....the equity in his condo is being deducted from his half of ownership of our marital home. Being nice in a business deal will never get you anywhere. Email me, if you want to talk details.
