(voluntarily) she also still has a key and can come and live here again whenever it suits her.\n\n I stayed living here until our house was sold.\n\n Now, however, she wants money for the pleasure of living that she has not enjoyed.\n\n Can she demand this?\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n The user fee is a fee that must be paid because the other person uses the home. The living pleasure is often determined by the possible missed return of around 4 percent, on half of the home's equity.\n \nA request for such a user compensation can be made at the time of the divorce proceedings, but also afterwards and with retroactive effect. The circumstances of the case play a decisive role in the determination of yes or no. In general, it must be stated that a condition applies that there is a surplus value, so the home must have increased in value and the mortgage debt is lower than the value.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n The house was sold at a loss, so there is no question of equity.\n\n We are both 50% owners with a cohabitation contract, this was not in my question.\n\n I don't know if this matters?\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n In my opinion, based on this information (no surplus value), there is no right to a usage fee.\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55019163287901,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-8678-mijn-ex-en-ik-zijn-nu-twee-jaar-uit-elkaar-en-hebben-samen-een-huis-met-een-hypotheek-mijn-ex-beta","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
