Foreclosure after a divorce

[LaDawn Jones]

I would like advice from someone before seeking a real estate attorney on this issue. I divorced 5 years ago and left the home with a mortgage to my ex-husband. Both of our names are on the mortgage, which is now a concern for me. At the time of the divorce I now realize I should have requested re-financing to have my name removed. He has now, 5 years later ruined my credit and is in pre foreclosure status with this home. What can I do if the mortgage company comes after me for payment? I immediately thought to sell the home. What are your thoughts?
