Did you sign over the house during the marriage or after the divorce? How is it she is forcing you to sell the house? What was the purpose of the loan? These are questions that need to be answered before your questions can be analyzed and answered. Constructive Trust isn't a legal theory for liability or ownership, it's a remedy which is employed after you have established that you should win. Can you supply more data?
