Paying mortgage after split.
To cut a very long story as short as possible my ex and I split up approximately 2 years ago and I moved out of our home. The mortgage is in joint names and I have been paying half of the mortgage on top of my own living costs up until last month. The house has been on the market for about 18 months. I offered to buy my ex out some time ago, with my new partner,and he refused our (more than reasonable) offer. About 3 months ago we negotiated an agreement for him to buy me out and I am still waiting. Is it reasonable for me to be still paying towards a house that I no longer live in? I am fullly aware that as a joint name on the mortgage I am liable if he defaults on payments. Will obviously be seeking legal advice but wondered if anyone out there has been in the same situation. Thanks.
