I live in Texas and will be filing for divorce. We have no credit cards or debt outside of a house. My name is on the loan because she had no credit. Her name is on the deed. We have been married for 7 years and bought the house in 2012. Can I have her sign the house over since it is the only asset and debt we have with both names. There is a car that is in my name only. She has since moved to Oklahoma with her daughter, we have no children together.
Yes, you can ask your wife to sign a deed giving all her interest in the house to you. It does not sound like she will be contesting the divorce, so it could go smoothly. What county are you in?
