Chapter 15 - THE HOUSEJason said the house was his because he paid the down payment.

Mostly true.

The down payment came from a Briarstone distribution issued during marriage.

The deed listed both of us.

Mortgage paid from joint accounts.

I designed and oversaw a major renovation.

Jason’s declaration still called it:

“My residence.”

Language reveals ownership psychology before courts decide ownership law.

The house was worth about $1.35 million.

Mortgage around $510,000.

Meaning substantial equity.

Not a mansion.

Not penniless either.

Jason’s claim that I would “beg on the streets” was intimidation, not arithmetic.
