Mortgage Debt in Divorce: What Now?


Questioner

Hello, I have a divorce agreement that states: "My ex will take over the mortgage debt and release me from joint liability for the mortgage." Does this mean I am no longer liable for half of the house?

Questioner

Yes, that's what this means. However, it's still questionable whether the bank will cooperate, as they also have to give permission for this.
