Marie Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi. This is an enquiry from a friend in the UK who is divorced, but has a property in France in joint names with his ex wife. He is trying to get some information without having to contact a notaire here. The question is:"In England if a property is in joint names and is for sale a solicitor can apply to the court to get an "order to sale " which means if an offer is received and one of the owners accepts the other owner can't refuse the offer.Is this the case in French Law? Or is there a similar type process/Law?"Does anyone have any advice? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
