Do you have an attorney? If not, please get one as soon as possible. In most states the judge can order the house sold after the divorce is final. However, if your attorney can bargain for the house by having it valued and then trading assets that equal your share you may be able to keep it. The issue will be refinancing and getting him off the mortgage. Good luck.
