No, it is not possible to obtain a home equity loan without having any equity in your home. Home equity loans are secured by the equity you have built up in your home through mortgage payments or appreciation in value.
To refinance your home without equity, you can explore options such as a cash-out refinance, a home equity loan, or a government-backed program like the FHA Streamline Refinance. These options may allow you to refinance your mortgage even if you don't have significant equity in your home.

I am assuming you mean that you own the house outright. The answer (provided you own the home without a mortgage) is yes. Home equity loans are designed for people who wish to borrow against the equity in the home. Remember, you have to own the home in order to use equity. This means your name has to be on the deed. (See related link below for more information.)
A home equity loan is a mortgage based on the value of your home that exceeds any outstanding mortgages. Your equity is the value of your home that is actually paid for. If your home is fair market valued at $100,000 and there is an outstanding mortgage in the amount of $40,000 then you have $60,000 in equity. However, note that due to costs, fees and fluctuating home values a lender will generally not loan the full amount of equity but something less than the fair market difference. In your case, having no equity in the home means that you have nothing to offer the lender as collateral and the lender has no reason to loan you any money. No equity means no home equity loan.

No.
If both spouses own a home, then any real estate agent who is doing his or her job will not list a home without both spouses signing the listing agreement. Likewise, if both spouses own a home, then both spouses must sign a contract to sell the house.

There are a variety of answers to that question, depending on whether or not you want the marriage to remain intact. You need to know, however, that the line of credit may not be illegal. Consult an attorney immediately if you do not get immediate satisfaction from the lender.

There is no need. You will get the equity in the home at closing anyway, without having to pay the closing costs associated with an equity loan.
That's what a refinance is changing the terms. However, if you have equity, can get a 2d as alternative.
Some frequently asked questions about home equity loans include: How do home equity loans work? What are the benefits and risks of taking out a home equity loan? How much can I borrow with a home equity loan? What are the interest rates and repayment terms for home equity loans? How does a home equity loan differ from a home equity line of credit?
No. Even though a home equity loan is backed by the value of one's principal residence, the individual's income must be substantial enough (after other payments) to cover the principal and interest payments associated with the home equity loan. If income cannot/will not be documented, no lender will approve a home equity loan.
