my husband is in jail, and i need to do a debt consolidation. the property is in both of our names. what kind of poa do i need from my soon to be ex-huband to refinance the house.
Hi rwjbaj,

Rather than going for a POA, you should ask your husband to sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to you. This will make you the sole owner of the property and you'll be able to refinance the mortgage depending upon your credit score and income.

Thanks

since your husband is your "soon to be ex-husband," i have to take it for granted that you have already engaged the services of an attorney. i'd suggest you run this question by that attorney and obtain his/her assistance in working out that problem. obviously, you may run into a stone wall with your husband and/or his attorney (if he has one). having him sign a quit claim deed handing over his rights to the property to you sounds pretty easy, but it might not work as easily as you'd like. lawyers for each of you will ensure the adequate protection for each of your interests.

are you in a community property state?
if so, there are further implications.

however, the title company can have a notary go over to the jail and get an appropriate poa signed for your transaction.
