Can you add the spouse's name to the mortgage paperwork?

You can add your spouse to the mortgage by refinancing in both of your names. Your spouse does have to be credit-worthy. Check with your original lender to see if it can be done simply without a full fee for refinancing.

No


Can you drop a spouse from a mortgage without their signature by refinancing?

You can refinance without the spouse but you will need their consent to do so. If the spouse is on the title of the home, the answer is "no". If the spouse is on the existing mortgage the answer is "no". If the spouse is not on title you need to indicate on the loan application that you are married, and if you don't is fraud. At the time of closing she/he would have to be present. Inform you spouse of your actions.


How will refinancing rates be affected if a spouse with a low credit score is added to the policy?

Let me answer the question this way: the addition of somebody with low credit can't help a mortgage application, and may kill it. A lot depends on the mortgage being applied for (all mortgages have, as a criteria for acceptance, a range of acceptable credit scores) and how low, in fact, the spouse's credit scores are. Talk it over with the professional handling your mortgage. If, for instance, you need to add the spouse for income reasons, you might be better off to get a different sort of mortgage. Good luck.


What are the options for refinancing with only one spouse?

When refinancing with only one spouse, the options include applying for a new loan in the name of the spouse who has sufficient income and credit, or removing the other spouse from the current loan through a process called a loan assumption or a loan modification.
