I’m divorced, and as part of the financial settlement my husband was allocated 25% of the house and a charge has been registered against the property to reflect this. This is due to come into effect on my death; but what would happen if my ex-husband died before me?
I think it’s more likely that the charge will take effect and your ex-husband will receive his share when you either die, remarry or if the house comes to be sold. Check the wording of the order. If your husband is no longer alive at that point his share in the property will go to his nearest and dearest, like any other possession. It’s something he could leave to someone in his will.
