hey all new to this but am in a similar position as arches1, I have 2 kids, not married and ex partner pays 400 a month towards our 2 kids (only kids not mortgage), I don't mind this as he pays rent elsewhere and I live in house, i don't really want to live in this house anymore and want to sell, can anyone tell me if the money that's paid for my kids can go as "income" to boost credit rating for a new mortgage? also what will happen if we have a difference of opinion on selling the house, will i be able to sell it if he does not agree? any help would be grateful.
 
No you can't sell it unless you have the consent of both parties plus the consent of the bank. As for your question about whether the maintenance can be seen as income to boost credit rating for a new mortgage, you might be better off asking that in the mortgages thread.
