Re: Adding my husband to the deed for my house
You can contact an attorney to draw up the appropriate documents deeding a part interest in the house to your husband. As of now, the house is your separate property even though your husband paid of part of the mortgage.
Re: Adding my husband to the deed for my house
You need to have an attorney draw up a marital stipulating that the house is the "community property" of both you and your husband. Right now, the property is your "separate" property, and it will remain so unless the proper marital agreement is executed.
