Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Divorce and Home Rights

My uncle has decided to sell his home which he co-signed with his wife. However, they have been divorced for 12 years and she now resides in a different state. He has made all the home payments, improvements and maintenance. If he sales his home, would she be entitled to any of the profit. They had bought the home about a year before they divorced. I would also like to mention that they have 3 children and he has been the sole provider for 2 of those children. What are his legal obligations to his legally divorced ex-wife when he sales? Thank you.

Re: Divorce and Home Rights

This issue should have been addressed in the divorce decree. Have your uncle review the property division in his decree.
