Lizard | If you're married, can you buy a house in your name only? |
|

Dawni Do Right

Depends on your state as to how you take title, but yes.
In community property states, (Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin) the puchasing spouse takes title to the property as "Your Name, a married person as their separate property". The other spouse must sign a Quit Claim Deed as part of the closing process & it's recorded.
Not sure how it would work in common law states. |
|

Doctor Deth
|
yes, but you would have to qualify using only your credit score, income and debts |
|

Cathi
 |
Yes, you can. But the spouse still has ownership rights if you were to pass away. It can get ugly if there's step children involed or any surviving heirs. |
|

Yes you can buy a house in your name only. I assume your asking because 1 person has credit issues? |
|

leonardhomes@sbcglobal.net
 |
Yes. but if you think it wiil save you anything in case of divorce it won't |
|

In some states your spouse automatically gets a legal right to live in any house you live in and that clouds the title if they refuse to sign that right away when you sell.
In most common law states this house will end up being commonly owned by both of you because you will likely use "common funds" to make payments or pay for upkeep or property taxes or such.
But in every state of the US that I am aware of you could buy the house with your name only on title if you have the cash or can qualify for the loan on your own. |

 |
Yes but you probably will not get approved for as much as you would if you included your spouses income. |
|

bud68
|
Yes. |
|

Terry S
|
Yes, ask the title company to do a "DICLAIMER DEED" your spouse will have to "Disclaim" the home you are buying for yourself. |
|

His Wifeyy ♥
 |
Yes!... But why would you want to?... A little shady :p |
|

bailie28
 |
yes you can finance it in your name only..my husband did this when we got our new house in ga..but i still had to sign paperwork as his spouse...but i have no job at the moment.. |
|

estielmo
|
Yes, but why?
Your credit histories are mingled so getting a loan is no easier and any divorce court will award your spouse a full share of the assets, so what is the point? |

What if you are separated and your spouse buys a house under his name and states he is an unmarried man. Then what. |
