A wife can sign a real estate contract for her husband if he grants her a power of attorney just like anyone else. What varies by state is the repercussion of a wife signing a contract on her own. In some states the catch phrase is it takes one to buy and two to sell. A wife can purchase real estate on her own and her husband is liable. However, when a married couple sells real estate, both parties must sign the real estate sales contract for it to be enforceable.

Husband No objection certificate for his wife wants to work?

I'm understanding that the wife is on the husband's resident visa. And is not permitted to work, but in the case she found a job her husband has to sign a letter standing as the NOC for wife to work. The employer-to-be should have this certificate or will simply ask the husband to draft a letter certifying his non objection to wife working for the employer.
