    Hope somebody can give some help or at least some pointers. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    A friend has recently agreed to split up with her husband - they have drifted apart over the past 13 years and while pretty amicable don't really get on very well any more. They have two small children.

    They have a nice house (recent purchase) but it is mortgaged up to about 90%. He wants to continue living there in the spare room (which is not practical), enjoy the batchelor life but with no worry about paying for a second home. He brought some large debts into the relationship at the start which eventually got rolled up into the mortgage. She inherited some money recently which helped buy the house so her investment has been much more than his but he does pay the mortgage and bills each month.

    He has a well-paid job, she has a less well-paid job which may not last, she has little in terms of pension. Her salary is generally used to buy consumables - food etc.

    My question is around financials - what can she expect in terms of maintenance ?
