Im about to start divorce proceedings and looking for the quickest cheapest way of doing it.

We are going down the Unreasonable Behaviour route uncontested with transfer of property (with no equity) to myself and a clean break agreement

Any advice would be good!

New patio not an option although has been suggested by a non welsh speaking PH mate of mine!

Trying to keep solicitors out of it, both trying to save cash and there is nothing to get really! unless she wants some potential negative equity !

No children involved, dog gone to the in-laws-to-be.

So there is just the house with no equity that i'm happy to take on myself (and she is happy to walk)

Cheers for all of the advice! There should be a wiki on here that covers this!

We are trying to keep solicitors out of this if we can!

There is no money!

We both earn similar money, she has a better pension (NHS) the house is now worth what we owe on the mortgage and im taking on the small overdraft that we have on our joint account.

Yes im getting a house which i hope in a couple of years has some equity but she is going to be walking away with a clean sheet which is what she wants. There is nothing to take!

From a position of the traditional base 3.5X salery im easily covered plus there is a 17 - 20 % bonus which im not taking into account on top of my base.

My dad is fully willing to go onto the mortgage if needs be if the bank has issues on only having myself on there
