The person who is on the mortgage is legally responsible for paying the debt. If the debt is not paid the bank will take possession of the property. The division of the property will be addressed through negotiation by the attorneys representing the parties or by a judicial order.

My husband is on the deed we are both on the mortgage and he has died. Am I responsible for the debt?

If the mortgage isn't paid the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure. If you signed the mortgage then you are responsible for paying the debt on your husband's property. You need to consult with an attorney about having your husband's estate probated. If you're not on the deed the property is part of his estate and his estate must be probated in order for title to pass to his heirs.If the mortgage isn't paid the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure.

If a husband and wife are both on the title but only the wife's name is on the mortgage and the house goes into foreclosure will the husband's credit be affected?

Someone made a big mistake when they gave only the wife a mortgage. The lender can foreclose on only her half interest in the property, not the husband's interest. The lender's interest will then depend upon how the couple held title. Depending on the state where the property is located a tenancy by the entirety would create the most difficult stuation for the lender. You should speak with an attorney to determine the status of that mortgage and your rights in your particular state.

Can you refinance your home in your name only if your husband is not on the mortgage?

It depends on the state, but generally the answer is yes. In states that allow it, if you solely have enough income to refinance in your own name, you can leave your husband off the note and deed (mortgage) and take title as a married woman her sole and separate property. It will also depend on the lender. Some will want him on the title but not the note (due to bad credit). Just call a few lenders and see what they can or can't do.If both own the property by deed then both will need to sign the mortgage so that the lender can take possession by foreclosure in the case of a default.


Is Mississippi can the husband hold complete ownership in a deed of trust?

A deed of trust is similar to a mortgage. A husband does not "hold" ownership by a deed of trust. Ho holds title by virtue of a deed showing him as the grantee. He would grant (and sign) a deed of trust in order to borrow money using the property as security for the loan.If both husband and wife hold title then both must sign the deed of trust. If only the husband holds title and the couple resides at the property under a homestead exemption then both must sign. This is a complicated issue. If you have further questions you should consult with an attorney.
