You may have a suit for a constructive trust. However, the litigation is likely to be expensive if he fights. However, a letter from counsel might be enough to convince him that he should not proceeed. You also need to explain more about what you mean by he bought the house. I cannot tell if you mean that he put it in his name due to your poor credit or if he actually paid anything that you did not reimburse.
