Having said that, I have no reason to believe that a married person could purchase a home individually, without involving a spouse. That you didn't sign a quit claim deed only means that you didn't have to. You were not an owner to begin with, and a quit claim deed only transfers an ownership interest - if one doesn't exist, you can't transfer anything. If you can't find a local attorney to answer your query, try the North Carolina Attorney General's office. _________________ George M.

If you are not in a community property state, then you can purchase property without the spouse. Contact a professional who knows your state laws to be certain. _________________ Chris Gummerson Bay Valley Mortgage Group bayvalleymortgage.com 714-367-5125

Where it says, "I have no reason to believe that a married person could purchase a home individually, without involving a spouse," it should read as follows: "I have no reason NOT to believe that a married person could purchase a home individually, without involving a spouse." Nevertheless, please go get a legal opinion to be certain of your rights. _________________ George M.
