Divorces are not usually amicable so trying to get another party to agree to make money on the house (and move you out) will be time consuming and very unlikely.This statement though, "it is just sitting due to interest rates", is troubling.

Because you are self servicing your loans most are not legally compliant with consumer protection laws and CFPB requirements such as sending statements on a monthly basis that have all the language the CFPB requires as well as each state may have additional requirements for sending out just a simple statement.
