Get clear legal advice!","description":"\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e \nA house was bought by 2 people. The house is in both names. The mortgage was also taken out in the names of both people. There is also a cohabitation agreement stating that both are jointly and severally liable. Now the relationship is over and the house has to be sold. For a few months now, 1 party has not contributed to the mortgage, which has resulted in a debt. Repeated emailing, calling, etc., does not help, and is not responded to. Now the house will be sold in a month. But if the debt is not paid, the remaining debt will remain. The NHG will then not include the remaining debt. Is it possible that if person 1 pays the debt, this can still be recovered from person 2 afterwards? Via legal proceedings? Or are you too late then? I would very much like an answer to my question. Thank you in advance.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e \nNo, the debt jointly incurred is shared. It is possible to recover this debt through legal means. However, if the other party has no money, it will be a difficult story. But it is possible. If you would like further advice and\/or assistance, please contact me at any time.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n Great! Thanks for your offer!\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n In principle, you can pay the amount yourself and then recover it from your ex-partner later. It might be wise for you to hire a lawyer now to assist you in this. Your lawyer could then summon the other party to make payment and possibly start proceedings in the short term to order your ex-partner to pay the outstanding amount or, to the extent that you have already paid, to order your ex-partner to pay you what you have paid.\n \nAlthough it may be that your ex-partner currently offers little recourse. a judgment of conviction does not expire until after 20 years. After a judgment has been passed, you therefore have ample time to recover the amount paid by you or the ex-partner by calling in a bailiff (if necessary).\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n Good to hear that we can actually do something. Appointment with lawyer is made. Thank you for your response.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n You're welcome. Good luck with the settlement of your case.\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55016174879069,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-37185-er-is-een-huis-gekocht-xoor-2-personen-huis-staat-op-naam-van-allebei-hypotheek-afgesloten-ook-opn","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
