Can I sue my husband for not paying the morgage when I would give him the money and now my home is being repod

I’d give the money to my husband to pay all the bills becasue I’m always out of town but I came to find out he has not paid a single one and my home is being reposessed. I got a letter that I need to turn it in in 30 days. Is there anything I can do to save my home????????????????????????

The bad news is, is most states, if you bought your house together, then it’s the "marriage" that owns the house, not the individuals. Most states treat the marriage as one person. This would, in some states, eliminate your ability to sue.

There may be some exceptions if you are divorcing, but it doesn’t sound like that’s where this is going right now.

Your question indicates "my house", so do YOU own the home seperately? If so, then YOU are responsible for the bills, and yes the bank can take action against you.

Contact your bank and let them know what’s going on. If you have no other options at all, file a "deed in lieu of forclosure".
That may get your bank’s attention. The DIL is in your best interest if NO other options exist, but do this as a last resort only.

For more info on "deeds in lieu.." go to Wikipedia and seach under "deeds in lieu of forclosure.

Good luck.

  1. what do you mean "my home is being repossed"

    Don’t you mean "our home?"

    Where is the money? Get it and send it in to the mortgage company.

    And, unless you are in the process of getting divorced, suing your husband is suing yourself….and that’s just kind of stupid.

  2. I would take his ass to court and divorce him…what has he been doing with the money.

  3. You want to sue your husband? I’d be talking with a divorce lawyer. You need to find out what he’s been doing with all that money you’ve been giving him. I bet he hasn’t been using it to buy you flowers.

  5. No.

  6. Direct deposit, a good attorney, banking on-line. The suit is for divorce, the attorney may keep the house out of foreclosure. Is the house in your name?

  7. If you have proof that you gave the money to your husband to pay the mortgage and he did not, It does not matter if your married or not you can sue him as long as you have the proof. But instead of asking people on yahoo, you should contact a lawyer for a free consultation. Good Luck And I hope everything work out

  8. No you cannot. You had equal access to the account and equal responsibility to seeing that the mortgage was paid every month.

    Yes, you can save your home, by calling a real estate attorney, paying the balance that is past due.

  9. You have the "right" to sue anyone, for anything as long as it isn’t a frivolous law suit.

    Honestly, this sounds like a b.s. question, since you don’t "turn in" a house. Banks foreclose on homes, they don’t "repossess" them. Sounds like you’re talking about your car.

  10. Bet you did not get a receipt.

    First, divorce you husband.

    Second, bring your payments up to date to delay a foreclosure.

    Hope this helps.
