Not if the house is owned in joint tenancy with right of survivorship or tenancy by the entireties, unless the other spouse-owner joins in a valid conveyance to effectuate this. Conveyances can occur in some cases subject to liens as encumbrances.

If you are paying the mortgage, your husband didn't pay for the house. The bank owns the house and you and your husband have an equal share in the equity.


Your husband owned a house in North Carolina before you were married But after you married he refinaced it the deed is in your name but the loan is not Do you have a legal right to the house?

If your husband refinanced his home and then conveyed it to you then you are the owner of the property subject to the mortgage. If the mortgage isn't paid the bank can take possession of the property. If your name is on the deed as the grantee then you have a right to the use and possession of the property until you convey your interest to someone else by a quitclaim deed. If your name is on the deed WITH your husband then you own a half interest and have the right to the use and possession of the whole property.


What happens if a mother gives her son a half ownership in her house and she dies intestate can t he son walk away from the house?

If the mother conveyed a half interest to her son by deed then he owns a half interest in the property. He would also have inherited another proportionate interest in his mother's half WITH his other siblings. He should convey his interest to someone before he walks away. His name will be on the property tax bill and if those are not paid the taxes will become delinquent and will affect his credit.

Yes, but if your name was added to a deed after the owner granted the mortgage your interest is subject to the mortgage. If the mortgage isn't paid the lender will take possession by foreclosure and your interest will be wiped out.If the mortgage is paid and the house is sold you will receive half of the proceeds at the time of sale.

Your fiance and you just bought a house together you will not be married until 2009 How will you file the interest paid for 2008?

First and foremost, only the person who actually paid the mortgage interest (from his/her own funds) may deduct any of it. Then, it depends on how the house is deeded. If you own it in joint tenancy with rights of survivorship with your fiance, the person who paid it may deduct it. If you split the payments, you may split the deduction in the same proportion as you paid it. If you own the house as tenants in common, each of you may deduct as much as you actually paid, but only to the extent of your ownership interest in the property -- probably 50%. That is, even if you paid 100% of the mortgage payments, you may deduct no more than half of the interest.
