Bought house and put girlfriend's name on deed but not mortgage. I have made all of the house payments. After 4 years living in house with her.. we are splitting. Will she get any profit from house sale?

Hello S:

Sure. She owns HALF of it.

It's worse than that, though. IF you happen to be upside down in your house, YOU'RE going to owe the bank the difference - NOT her.
