The banks lend money to you for the purchase of your home and both you and the bank entered into an agreement for this loan as per which you have to pay certain amount of money every month to your banker as a repayment to your loan to the bank. If you have been defaulting on your monthly mortgage payments the lender starts initiating the process of selling your home in order to recover the money lent to you for the purchase of property.

My partner and I decided to buy together a home two years ago. He is unable to meet his financial obligations, and is considering to declare himself in bankruptcy. I can continue paying for my share, but definitely cannot pay for his. Is there any way I can escape from this loan without having a bad credit history? Any tips in how to avoid foreclosure or bankruptcy?
