my boyfriend and i bought a house together. because my crdit was not so good because of a divorce he had the deed put in his name and quit claimed the deed to me as well. since then we were able to refinance the house in both of our names and we got married.
my question is this. if i should pass away am i legally able to pass on my half of the house to my children? should either of us pass before the other could the survivor sell the house?

If you wish to transfer your half of property after death, then you can prepare a Will which will help to convey your property-interest to your spouse and children.
After your death, when your children receive half of the interest in property, they can sell the entire property only at the consent of yur spouse. This is because the property title will have your spouse's as well as children's names on it.
