Posted - 18 October 2012 : 17:42:24 My ex is going bankrupt, we split over 4 years ago and i have been solely paying the mortgage since then. There is little to no equity in the house, i am happy to continue paying the mortgage. she has been told that they will take her part of the house. Meaning i will either have to buy them out or rent their share. Is this true? Does anyone know what the process would be?

You will be able to buy back the beneficial interest from the OR. If it's in negative equity then you will need to offer £1000 plus fees.
Once you have done this, then your home will no longer be at risk.
I suggest you get a valuation on the property based on a quick sale and an up to date mortgage balance to check that there isn't any equity.
