Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

Re: State Law of domestic child support past due dispute

This should come up as part of the closing, as his Affidavit of Title will contain questions about child support. It might also come up on the title search. Anticipate having to deal with this. Perhaps you can take title in your name alone, with him as a loan guarantor along with you. You need to check this with your mortgage lender. This would not place him on the Deed, which can be done later. I suggest something be in writing to protect his interests in the house until the matter is resolved. I am not suggesting that he avoid the payments, just do something on an interim basis until he can clear the arrearages.
