I think your ex-husband is blowing smoke. If he does not think that he is the father, he can ask the court to order a DNA test. The way to prove the lie is to ask the court to hold him in contempt for not paying the child support. If he has the ability to pay, a court will likely hold him in contempt. If he is unemployed, the court will probably not hold him in contempt because he does not have the ability to pay.

You have to be able to give an enforceable lien to secure the new loan. So you'll need your ex's signature either on the loan documents or on a deed to you so that you can grant an enforceable lien with just your own signature.
