You can divide property however you agree. Whether the agreement is fair must ultimately be decided by you.

Y'all probably don't have much equity built-up in the home so he probably won't owe you much in terms of equity. You may ask that he pay you 1/2 of all mortgage payments paid since you bought the home.

You should consult an attorney for a more in-depth analysis of your situation.

Good Luck!
