Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Dead beat Dad's newest trick
My ex is behind 6 mnths in child support and 1 yr in medical reimbursements. But his newest trick I don't know how to handle. We have an extensive mediation agreement in which it states that I can live in the ex's house with the minor child until the child reaches 18 (5 yrs from now) The house is paid for completely. The agreement states that no emcumberances can happen unless I agree. Now the ex comes & says he is being sued, has bad credit & no matter what a judgement will happen. My questions are what happens to me and my child if a judgement is placed on the property? Can we be forced out? My ex is legally allowed to have homestead on the property even though he does not live here because of the mediation agreement. If there a way I can verify his story? What should I do? I worry that if he can't pay the Child support money how is he going to make a mortgage payment? Can't the house then be foreclosed on? Please help me

Homesteaded property is exempt from judgment execution.
