What portion of the property you own will be determined by the court granting the divorce. There are too many variables to give you a simple answer.
Your husband's name is not on the deed, but is he on the loan? If yes, then it cannot be foreclosed and repossessed if the property is listed on his bankruptcy filing, and, as long as his bankruptcy payments are current. If he defaults on bankruptcy payments, then you can lose the property. If he is not on the loan, then your house can be foreclosed and repossessed.
what happens if your husband dies and i am on deed,but not on loan.am i responsible for the loan and do i keep the house/
he can take it back <3 all my people i am a lawyer!!
You AND your husband are the owners of the house. Should you divorce, you have an equal investment in the house. The mortgage is in your husband's name, but should he die, you are responsible for this bill. If you default on the loan, you will foreclose on the house. The mortgage company does not care who pays the loan off, as long as it gets paid.
No. If he didn't sign the mortgage then he is not responsible for paying it.
All parties on title to the home must sign the loan documents; so, your husband can not do a loan on his own. Some states allow the spouse to sign the note (the debt) but not the deed; that would mean you are on the loan only but not the title; in that case, your husband would be able to encumber the property with another loan in his loan only.
No. Your husband has no obligations or liability regarding your mortgage.
You may want to double check the document to see if you were indeed liable on the loan. You may have not been on the loan but on the deed to the property also.
You are as liable as him. If he files bankruptcy, they will come searching for you. Even if you sign a Quit Deed to release the house to him, you are just as responsible if your name is still on the loan.AnswerThe bank is not bound by any provision in your divorce decree. Your attorney should know that and should have addressed this situation by having your ex husband refinance the loan and pay off the existing loan that is in your name. If your ex husband fails to pay the loan the bank will come after you for payment and you remain legally responsible for repayment since you signed the note and mortgage. Incompetence results in this type of mess after a divorce.
One way to remove one or the other person off the deed of trust, is to refinance the loan.
Yes. The buyer can decide how the deed will be titled. However, the wife will need to be on the loan application.
You MUST address this issue in the negotiations for the Separation Agreement. It MUST be decided at the time of the divorce. The ownership of the property and the responsibility for payment of the mortgage must be arranged as part of the divorce proceeding. Your brief question doesn't provide much detail. Your divorce attorney should be provided with all the details and the matter should be addressed by the parties and the bank.
