You have not stated who signed the mortgage and that is important to your question. If the husband is paying the mortgage and is not on the title he is paying for property he doesn't own. If he signed the mortgage then his credit record is at risk if the mortgage isn't paid. This matter will need to be addressed at some point by a court, perhaps divorce court, since the owner has abandoned the premises. You need to consult with an attorney.
