You need to find a title attorney, take your wife off title, and add your father to title. Most mortgage companies have seasoning requirements of anywhere between 90-days and 12-months. Go through a mortgage broker and tell them the entire situation. They will find a lender with lower seasoning requirements. A broker may be able to educate you more on the mortgage side but very limited with title issues. Ask him or her their lowest seasoning requirements.

What are the disadvantages of cosigning on a mortgage?
If the primary borrower defaults the cosigner can get "stuck" with a huge debt and ruined credit. A cosigner has the same legal obligation to repay a loan as does the primary borrower. In addition, a cosigner does not have property owner rights, only the debt. The real question is why would anyone agree to pay a mortgage for land they do not own. A co-signer has an equal obligation to pay the mortgage.
If an adult child is a cosigner on the mortgage to her parents' home can she be relieved of the debt responsibility when she marries?
