My name is on the deed to my house, my husband's is not. Both our names are on the mortgage. We are going to be going through a divorce, he refuses to leave. Do I have any claim to the house? Can I make him leave? I am in Georgia.
Welcome adrilling,
As your name is mentioned on the property deed, you are the sole owner of the property. Your husband will not be considered as the owner of the property. Thus, you've all the rights to ask him to leave the house. As far as the loan is concerned, you can refinance it in your name. You can contact an attorney and he will help you in taking legal steps against your husband to make him leave the property.
