Can my husband put our house on the market without my permission?

You can only sell the house without consent from your spouse (this includes civil partnerships) if they are not joint owners. This means you can sell, rent out or re-mortgage the property, do pretty much anything with the property that you want, without having to have your spouse’s permission.

Can my husband make me leave our home?

Both parties have a right to stay in the home. No one can force you to leave your residence without a court order unless there is domestic violence. In order to get such a court order in a divorce, a temporary orders hearing must be held.

Can I sell my house if my partner doesn’t want to?

If you want to sell and your partner doesn’t (or vice versa), one person can begin an action of division and sale in court. However, the other party can petition the court to a division of the proceeds, or to buy the place at a market price or one decided by the court.
