Yes! The only thing is the chapter 13 will have to be discharged at closing. Depending on how long she has been in the bankruptcy, this may not be a big hassle. It is impossible to refinance a home in a chapter 13 without the BK being discharged. For more information, please feel free to email me at Travis.Fleury@gmail.com. I work for one of the largest direct private mortgage lenders in the country, i'd be glad to help answer any other questions.
The answer is when he dies the reverse mortgage company will settle up the loan, so you will have to either sell the house or refinance with a new mortgage.
Nothing, so long as you do not get divorced or die, and then it varies by situation and state. If you refinance after you are married, your spouse may be a borrower with you or may "join in" on the mortgage. Again that depends on certain conditions of the refinance such as whether or not you are refinancing your homestead property. Finally when you sell, depending on the same factors, you husband or wife may have a role to play in that sale.
The owners of the property must sign the mortgage so the lender can take possession by foreclosure in the case of a default.

Since he is not listed as a borrower on the first mortgage his credit is not affected by paying or not paying that mortgage. Even if both loans are with the same company, he is only held responsible for the loan in which he signed.
Generally, not if the property will be in the wife's name alone and her income is enough to qualify her as the sole borrower for the loan. Some lenders insist that both spouses sign the mortgage.

If your husband passes away and he is the sole borrower on the mortgage, you may still have rights to the home depending on how the property is titled. If you are the co-owner or if the home is jointly owned, you can typically assume the mortgage or refinance it in your name. It’s advisable to contact the mortgage lender to discuss your options and consult with an attorney to understand your rights and obligations regarding the property. Additionally, reviewing any estate planning documents, like a will or trust, can provide clarity on your situation.
You cannot take your husband's name off the mortgage. You must refinance in your own name and pay off the prior mortgage. You should have a deed drafted by an attorney.

The mortgage insurance you are referring to is most likely the standard mortgage insurance that is on a loan above 80% of the value of the house. This MI covers the lender in case of the borrower defaulting on the loan. It does nothing to help the borrower. If you are on the deed then you still own the house if your husband dies but if you cannot either refinance the mortgage or continue to pay the monthly payments then the lender will ultimately foreclose on the house and repossess it. What you need is a life insurance policy that will pay off the balance on the mortgage in case of the death of the mortgage holder.
Probably not, check your mortgage for what can be done with the property. Lenders do not like property encumbered with life estates.

You can't take your name off a mortgage that you signed. When you quitclaimed your interest in the property to your ex-husband you should have made it a condition that he refinance the property and pay off the existing mortgage that has your name on it. An attorney would have, should have, advised you to do that.
