    My parents went in on a mortgage for my brother and his wife. Ten years or so later she divorced him. He had a crappy attorney and had been brainwashed for years by her, so she got everything in the divorce, including his portion of the house (since he wanted to keep a roof over his kids head), and he kept paying the mortgage. So my parents were still partial owners (as brother didn’t tell anyone until divorce was finalized). Brother remarried, (even after my dad told him he was a glutton for punishment😂). Eventually brother and wife2 got tired of paying mortgage, and eventually gave ex wife money to get him off mortgage. Parents never got a dime back, even when she sold the house.

    I'm assuming they have been paying the mortgage for 16 years as well, maybe I'm wrong, but that's the impression I got. That means they are due a lot more than $50,000 for the house. They are likely due their original $40,000 plus half of the paid off value of the home, and any equity it has gotten in 16 years from market growth. If he sues them he is only due the loan balance in a forced sale since he had himself removed from the deed. He doesn't own the home at all.

Later, the remaining tenant stops paying and I go after both of them in court. The one who moved out acts SHOCKED that they are still on the hook for the rent and damages.

    He must've left when his child was 2. He never married the mother, so he never had to pay alimony - only child support. On the call, he never says he made payments on the mortgage. His ex or her parents must've been making the payments. Maybe he didn't fight hard to remove his name because his daughter was growing up in the house. Now, his daughter is 18, the house has renters, and he has a "new family."

    Worst part is that the title has to be changed prior to the bank removing signers from the mortgage. I had this problem with getting my dad removed from my mortgage. Had to update title first and it was backlogged like crazy at the time. Decided to quit my job and renovate my house to sell as I didn't like my job. I told my dad I wouldn't leave him on the mortgage for long and now without a job I couldn't qualify for the mortgage, so my only choice was to fix my place up and sell it. During the 2 years it took me to complete, my dad had many mental breakdowns due to various reasons and blocked contact with me 1 week before I finished. It was a nightmare. Thankfully after what seemed like an eternity (about 1-2 months), he was persuaded to sign by my mother. Never ever in my life would have thought that would have happened and I hope my story can be a warning as to the risks of co-signing, more specifically - joint signing (meaning both parties are on title)
