It depends on the terms of your divorce settlement and distribution of marital assets. The settlement will be negotiated by your respective attorneys. If you cannot agree then the court will decide the division. Generally, if one spouse gets to keep the house, it is in exchange for some other property or entitlement such as future alimony. If there is a mortgage on the property it must be addressed prior to the divorce. The person who will be retaining the property should arrange to pay off the mortgage and refinance in their own name. As long as both names are on the mortgage both are equally responsible for payment even if one has transferred their interest in the property to the other by deed.
