[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow! So my friend who put the house in her name, bcs her DH's husband's credit was busted(due to both of their mistakes) has a house but her DH doesn't? Even though at the time she did not work and he was/is paying the mortgage? So when dh and I were young and bought a house and put it into both of our names, it was really his house as he was the one that saved the money for down payment? I was still in college and not working? By the time we moved in I was working too, hence contributing so now it is kind of a little more mine too?[/quote]

Ack.  You are MARRIED.  Your friend is MARRIED and was MARRIED when the house was purchased.  Technically, the owning spouse does not have to consult the non-owning spouse if they want to sell the property.  But if the owning spouse dies that property will go to the surviving spouse because they are legally married.

If they were UNmarried "spouses" then they better have things in writing.[/quote]
If they are in a long term relationship and living together that is legal equal to marriage, in many states. Well, in most of Europe it is.[/quote]

That is the case in some U.S. states but definitely not all of them.  [/quote]
