    7 is fine but 13? I thought I clarified all. :confused:

    Yeah I think DR D made a mistake on 13.

    Anyway, if the buyer has taken possession of the house, you might have a problem negating the sale. You should be able to get your share of the proceeds.

    Thank you, Dr. D!

    The best advice I can possibly give you is to get yourself to a real estate attorney asap. You can definitely go after her, the buyer and the title insurance company but this is not something you can do on your own. Your divorce attorney may be able to handle it but you should probably have a consultation with a real estate attorney as well.

    I think I read somewhere in this thread that the buyers knew you weren't dead. If you can prove that then you may be able to negate the sale after all.

    Good luck!

    Thank you Lisa. When I found out the house was sold I rushed there and I went to those same neighbors to ask what happen why did she move out of the house? They tell me she was stressed and couldn't handle the bills. 45 minutes later they told me they bought it. (less than half price).They know me very well and knew that I wasn't close to dead. Just fifteen miles away.

    It was awfully nice of you to give your present (but not for long) wife, a house. I'm sure she's very appreciative. Indeed, she can do anything she wants with it.

    PS> Next time, get your legal advice from a lawyer instead of your real estate agent. Bwa, ha ha ha. After that, you might ask yourself if I'm happy you got cheated. The answer to that would be a resounding YES. You were cheating your children, weren't you??? The answer to that would be a resounding YES.
    If you are an actual ex-con, weren't the facts presented before a judgment was made in your case? Please read my explanation before you judge me. We all have the right to defend ourselves from our accusers. And yes my children are great thanks for asking. One is heading to the NFL draft. Two others are still in college.

    Ahh this adds another wrinkle. Yes, I agree with Lisa that you may be able to negate the sale. You should be able to prove that they took advantage of your ex (buying the house for way below market). So DO get an atty and go after them.
