Marital property is defined as property acquired from the date of marriage to the date of separation. If the house was acquired during that time, and marital funds were used to buy it, the record owner is irrelevant as it is marital. If it was his before the marriage, the increase in value during the marriage is also marital.
I trust this helps somewhat and you are welcome to call or email me on a free initial basis as I do practice in Chester County.
