Get legal advice about your marital situation, as it relates to any claim on that house.
No the house is not paid for. He put a large amount down but also has a large balance due. There is equity in the house from the time of perchase but not a large amount at all.
I did speak to a lawyer. I can get half of the equity from the date of purchase but not the down payment.
He is still so shocked that I found out about the house. He claims that the title company recommended that he secure his money. Title companies dont request anyone to watch out for their money.
