does a girlfriend benefit from proceeds from the sale

Posted on: 22nd Sep, 2009 04:04 pm
What rights does a girlfriend have to the proceeds from the sale of boyfriend's house she was living in?
Hi Guest,

If the girlfriend's name was included in the property deed, then she is one of the owners of the property. Thus, she will have the rights to receive a certain portion of the sale proceeds. However, if her name is not mentioned in the property deed, then she cannot claim anything from the sale proceeds.

Thanks

living in one's house does not give any benfit.

As suggested by Hogg, Her name has to be on deed.
