Should I be paying my partner rent because he refuses to put me on?
Partner. Thats the answer to all your questions. Without being married he has an answer to all this. Your situation is this. If he dies tomorrow, the home isn't paid off the bank says you can't carry the mortgage and on the street you go. They say its common law after a year but would I trust that? This guy either needs to put you on that house deed or you leave him now. Youre gonna end up on the street whether you leave or stay as it is. Youre in a bad position here. You gotta put him in do or die. Marry. And name on title or good bye. Its 50/50.
