This is about someone I know. He's been paying child support and partial mortgage for the house his Ex and their kid live in. He could have opted to not pay the mortgage when they split but he wanted to keep paying to get the half of the house. They didn't use a lawyer. They just went to a court and mutually agreed that he would pay child support (by law) and half of for the mortgage (voluntarily) Their kid will most likely move out next year for college. This guy will of course pay for half of whatever his son will need while he's in college but he wants the money to come out of his share when the house is sold. Most likely his ex is not planning on selling the house when their kid turns 18. How can he get his share if the Ex still wants to live in the house?
Added (1). They were never married.
