May I buy a separate home while separated, but not divorced?

Posted on: 04th Jun, 2009 08:12 pm
My spouse and I have been separated for 4 years. I filed a pre-app for a mortgage loan, but the loan officer said that I would have to include spouse's info for credit check/loan app since we are still married in the state of LA. Someone mentioned filing a post-nuptial agreement. What does this entail?
Chevanta,

Welcome to the forum.

A Post-Nuptial Agreement, sometimes referred to as an After Marriage Agreement, is a written document signed by parties to a marriage that sets out how they agree to have property divided, spousal support determined and attorneys fees paid in the future if the marriage ends in divorce. These agreements are usually entered into by parties not already in the divorce process, while a Marital Settlement Agreement is usually entered into by parties going through a divorce

Good luck and fee free to ask

gunzi, the poster is trying to buy a home, and apparently there is no current home to dispose of. you may want to reconsider your advice.

chevnate, if you plan on finalizing a divorce at some time in the not too distant future, it would likely benefit you now to speak with an attorney schooled in family law so you can get the lowdown on this situation.

whenever you're involved in something that requires legal advice, you're wise to stick with a lawyer for that advice rather than lay people.

you are not legally seperated.

I think you should consult an attorney who's aware of community property laws.
