What is my mortgage liability after divorce?

I just went through a divorce and would like to remove my name from a mortgage? I still live in the home while my husband moved out and left the state. Am I liable to pay even if my husband no longer wants the house and is not taking any responsibility for it? by sarahs447 from Aspen, Colorado. Mar 8th 2022 Reply


Regarding your liability for the mortgage payment, yes, whoever's name(s) are on the mortgage are responsible for the payment. Any missed payments will adversely affect your credit. The only way to remove a name from a mortgage is to either sell the home or refinance the the mortgage into one person's name..Dharper@stridebank.com
