Answer

You need to review the term of your divorce agreement. It may require that you refinance.

Property that was once marital property and that is being transferred from one former spouse to the other pursuant to a separation agreement should always be refinanced by the receiving party. Otherwise, even if they have conveyed their interest, the ex-spouse remains responsible for paying the mortgage. If it goes into default his credit will be ruined.

Your ex-husband should have insisted that the property be refinanced in consideration of his transferring his interest to you. The only way for him to be released from the mortgage obligation is for the mortgage to be paid off and then refinanced.

If your husband signed the deed as part of a separation agreement that you refinance the property in your own name and you didn't, then you are in contempt of a court order. You should consult with an attorney, preferably the attorney who represented you in the divorce.

If your divorce did not go through because your husband claimed he did not know what he signed, you may need to consult with a lawyer to determine the next steps. Depending on the circumstances and the laws in your jurisdiction, you may need to resubmit the divorce paperwork or address any legal challenges that arise from your husband's claim of not understanding the documents he signed.
