Dear Anonymous,
It is quite possible that a court would order him to give you the house and pay alimony. Without knowing all the information it is difficult to provide an answer. As a general rule alimony is the lesser of need or 30% to 35% of the difference in income. I suggest to discuss your situation with a Massachusetts divorce attorney.
Best,
