The answer depends on the details: when the house was purchased, whether it became marital property by virtue of the husband paying for improvements, taxes, repairs, maintenance, etc., state laws, whether you live in a community property or separate property state, etc. You need to consult with an attorney who specializes in family law in your jurisdiction.
