All,
I am in the early stage of a home refinance and I qualify for the loan myself. I don't need my spouse income to qualify for the loan. However, my spouse will be on the title for the home. I'm trying to determine if there are any advantages of not including my spouse on the loan.
So, I have a few questions about the pros and cons of this approach.
1. If I die, will my spouse be responsible for the loan? Once again, the loan is in my name; however, the property title is in both of our name.
2. Will my spouse be responsible for refinancing the loan if I die? Based on her income, she probably will not be able to qualify for the loan.
3. Do you advise getting some insurance that will pay off the loan incase I die?
Thank you.
