Q: In a divorce, what will become of home we are renting 2 own & the new truck he co-signed for? I pay for it all....
Haven't filed yet, but I just got a new truck with him being a cosigner, we traded in my vehicle for this truck. What will happen to it? He has two vehicles in his name already, I have none. Also the home, we live here with our 3 kids and have since 2015, it's a rent to own and both our names are on the documents. What will more than likely happen to these through a divorce?
A:
Most divorce cases are settled by agreement of both parties. If your husband agrees you can have the truck and house, the divorce decree will order this.
If you can't agree, the court will hear testimony and divide property in a fair and equitable manner.
