How can I divorce him, if I do not have an address?

Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Erin Farley
Your husband cannot evade the divorce by disappearing. Specific steps in attempts to serve him must be taken; if those are not successful, you can "serve" by publishing notice in the paper. Consult a local attorney for guidance in your specific matter.

How can I divorce him, if I do not have an address?

You do not need your husband to sign anything; all that is necessary is to personally serve him notice of the proceedings. If, after making a diligent effort to locate him, you cannot have him personally served the papers that provide him notice, the judge can authorize service by publication. That will permit the court to dissolve the marriage and decide issues concerning your son, but it may not have authority to establish a child support order.

Who is entitled to the funds from our second property in a divorce?

You don't provide enough information to allow a complete answer; but, the general answer is that all marital property (i.e. acquired during the marriage) and appreciated value of separate property is subject to division in a fair and equitable manner. Your facts suggest there is an issue as to what is and is not marital property, but it isn't clear what reasoning your wife's attorney is suggesting.
