Does my husband need to be on the property deed in Kentucky?
I am married, moving, and buying property in the State of Kentucky. I have been told that my husbands name has to be on the paperwork (i.e., deed). He does not want his name on the deed. The loan is in my name alone. He feels the house should be in my name alone. I was told by a realtor when looking for property that the marital status must go on the deed. But the mortgage company says that this is not so. My husband has signed a statement revoking all rights and interest to the property and he had it notarized. Please let us know what else we need to do.
