Out home is the only thing of dispute. It cost $255,00 in 2002. And was appraised for this same amount in 2003 when we refinanced. I have paid $126,000 and my husband $26,000 toward the principle. I would like to buy out his share. He thinks he should get 1/2 the appreciated value of the home and I think he should get 1/10th the appreciated value since this is what he has paid. I would of course assume the remainder of the mortgage. How would the courts see it. Plus, is there a way to find out the value of the property without paying for an appraisal.
