we recently purchased a property in texas with a mortgage. despite our request to have the property in joint names, the deed is only in my name (husband). the warrenty deed with vendor lien names me as grantee, shows me as "a married person". my wife is not named anywhere on the deed
how can we get my wife's name on the deed?
are there any concerns why this should be rectified?
if we were to leave it as is, would my wife need to refinance if i should die.
thanks in adv for your time

Who'd you make that request to? They screwed up and should correct it - that's the road I'd travel down if I were you. Meanwhile, get a Living Trust as soon as possible and ensure Title is transferred to your spouse in the event of your untimely death.
