selling property due to divorce.
We have a property with a mortgage which I wouldn't be able to meet. What would come first. Filing for a divorce or selling the property. If a solicitor was involved then my husband I am sure would stop paying the mortgage and you never know how long a property will take to sell. What I don't want is to get my home repossessed for the sake of a smallish mortgage. Any advice please. I have seen a solicitor but forgot to ask this question

If it is only a small mortgage then are you sure you want it to be sold, it might even be awarded to you or most of it. I do not know your circumstances but don't assume you have to sell.
