Can you actually sell a house if your name's not on the title? Let's break it down! 🚨
First, it depends on where you live. State laws are the name of the game here. 🗺️
Some states are community property states. That means everything bought during marriage could be shared, even if just one name's on the title!
So, if you're in a community property state, both of you might need to approve a sale. 🤝
But what if it's a non-marital asset? Like a house bought before you tied the knot or maybe inherited?
In those cases, the titled spouse might sell without needing a nod from the other. 👋
Got a prenup or postnup? That could change the rules too! 📜
Those agreements might spell out exactly who can do what with the house.
Think you can skip spousal consent? Not so fast! Most title companies want a waiver signed by the non-owner spouse.
And in divorce court, judges sometimes allow one spouse to sell without the other's say-so if things get dicey.
Bottom line, selling without consent can get sticky. Legal sticky. 🕵️‍♂️
Best advice? Chat with your spouse or lawyer before making moves on the market. 🏠💬
