Can my husband sell our house without my signature?
Can my husband sell our house without my signature?
If you own the house as the sole owner and you live in a non-community property state, it’s just your name on the deed. You don’t need your ex-spouse’s signature to sell. In community property states, it’s a good idea to get your ex-wife to sign a quit claim deed even if her name was never on the title.
Should non working spouse be on mortgage?
Your spouse has rights to your home, even if you owned it before you were married. If you go to refinance that property, you need to add your spouse to the mortgage, even if he or she is unemployed. If your spouse isn’t working, you have to qualify based solely on your income, but you are both liable for the loan.
Can I buy a house if my husband has bad credit?
Lenders don’t just average out your two credit scores or go with the highest one when evaluating your creditworthiness as a pair—they pay the most attention to the lowest credit score. If your credit is great but your spouse’s isn’t so hot, a joint mortgage application could be denied.
Does your spouse’s credit score affect yours?
Marriage has no effect at all on your credit reports or the credit scores based upon them because the national credit bureaus (Experian, TransUnion and Equifax) do not include marital status in their records. Your borrowing and payment history—and your spouse’s—remain the same before and after your wedding day.
How fast does your credit score go up after paying debt?

Is 650 a good credit score?
Is 650 a Good Credit Score? On the FICO® Score scale range of 300 to 850, higher scores indicate greater creditworthiness, or stronger likelihood of repaying a loan. A FICO score of 650 is considered fair—better than poor, but less than good.
Why did my credit score go down when I paid off my credit card?
Credit utilization — the portion of your credit limits that you are currently using — is a significant factor in credit scores. It is one reason your credit score could drop a little after you pay off debt, particularly if you close the account.
