Hi

To take your name off the loan, your wife has to refinance in her name. Now, if both of you are on the loan and the refinance is done only in your wife's name, the lender might have an objection to that. You can also draft a written agreement with the help of a lawyer, wherein she would be legally bound to pay you your share of the property when she refinances the loan or sells the house.

Hi Guest!

Welcome to forums!

If the both the spouses have their name on the property deed, then both of them are the owners of the property. The person whose name is on the mortgage deed will be liable to pay off the mortgage. If both of them refinance the mortgage jointly, then both of them would be responsible for paying off the mortgage dues.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
