Re: How to protect myself?

Definitely have your name put on the deed as a co-owner as part of the deal. No name on deed/no money.
A less desirable solution would be to loan him the money, but an IOU should be legally drawn up with the apartment or other real property as collateral.
Do NOT under any circumstances just give him the money to pay the mortgage. I don't want to say bad things about your marriage, but I would be suspicious of someone who asked me for a huge financial commitment right after marriage.
