My husband and i are divorced with the decree made absolute. he moved out of the matrimonial home long time ago and i've moved out too. our home was solely in his name because he bought it , but during the divorce proceedings, my lawyers adviced me to register my name on the property at the land registry under the matimonial homes act which i did successfully.

After the marriage ended, he has taken my name off the register but i thought that should not be possible as i asssumed my name was registered on the title.
Now am scared he might take a loan secured on the property which might leave me with peanuts because the court has ordered the sale of the property with me taking 75% and the rest to him.
When the court read the order, the judge did not mention anything to stop him securing a loan on the property.

As far as I know, if your name is on the deeds / title, then he cannot sell the house without your signing the papers as well. He will also not be able to take out a loan that is secured on the property, if you are on the title, as he will need your signature for that too. Companies that do secured loans are very strict about this. Good luck on this.
