Hello, I want to ask: I bought a house in Zengcheng, Guangzhou last year. Only her name was written at that time, and I paid a part of the down payment. Now that we've broken up, she won't repay me.

On the issue of court ruling, I think what is the litigation request. If your claim is to return the down payment, you should file a lawsuit at the woman's domicile. Of course, if you can prove that the woman has lived in Zengcheng for more than 1 year, you can also file a lawsuit in Zengcheng. If your idea is to divide the property, it should be done at the location of the property.

Of course, there is also a problem of risk expectation. Personally, I think that you have only paid part of the down payment, and there is no marriage relationship between you (I don't understand it correctly), so it is more appropriate for you to sue for the creditor's right relationship of returning the house purchase price, and if you can prove that you have paid the relevant money, the chances of winning the case are very high. I hope my answer is helpful to you.
