Does Moore Marsden rule apply to property before the marrige when living together?...I moved into my girlfriend's condo (California) on Feb 1st 1999. I helped her fix it up quite nicely and paid for more and performed than half of the repairs. Then I put her through 2 yrs of dental hygiene school. When she graduated we sold the condo and put (approx $35k toward old and new closing costs and $60k of the equity toward a home (sale price $380k) in Nov 2001. Because of my bad credit, I stayed off the loan and the title. We got married in Sept 2003. In April 2007, we refinanced our home loan and took out $140k in equity and bought and moved into a new condo $503k (both names on title). With some savings we covered the the closing costs and miscellaneous and took out a loan for $350k. As of Dec 31st, 2007 we were separated and we are going through divorce.
My real question here is, does anything count in California before we were married? Does the fact that I put her through school and I paid for repairs in ehr old condo get me anything? Please help. |
