nah that cant be right. if you put the house in ur mother's name, i dont see how in the hell they can take it away from u. its ur mother's property and she's doing yall a favor by letting yall live in it...so no court can give it to your ex wife under any circumstance
because breh obviously didn't read the OP
BUY THE HOUSE BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED
a lot of people don't know this.... YOU CANNOT BE GIVEN ANYTHING THAT WAS OWNED PRIOR TO THE MARRIAGE, PRENUP OR NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if a person has 100 million dollars.... gets married with no prenup.... gets divorced after 99 years... THEY CANNOT TOUCH THE ORIGINAL 100 MILLION DOLLARS
you can only split what was made during the marriage. a prenup is an agreement about what will be split if shyt fukks up.. as in....
a person has 100 million dollars... gets married with no prenup... MAKES ANOTHER 500 MILLION DURING THE MARRIAGE.... gets divorced...
well now she can sue for her half of the 500 million.. IF she didn't sign something that says she can only get 20 million, regardless of what is made
that's why you sign a prenup.. because if you're making big money, she's going to be able to get half of everything you make DURING THE MARRIAGE... she doesn't get to swoop in and take what you had before you ever knew her
so again... buy the house BEFORE you get married, and she can't touch that shyt regardless... yes she will get half of the equity.. but she damn sure ain't getting the property and home
now of course with a piece of shyt judge and a shytty lawyer, you might lose out on this... but as long as you keep her money away from the house and your money invested in a good lawyer... you can beat that shyt
Understanding How Assets Get Divided In Divorce | The Huffington Post
However, before we go any further, we need to discuss the differences between Separate and Marital Property and why that’s critically important to you. In my experience, this is an area that is not well understood by most people.
States differ in some of the details, but generally speaking, Separate Property includes:
- Any property that was owned by either spouse prior to the marriage;
- An inheritance received by the husband or wife (either before or after the marriage);
- A gift received by the husband or wife from a third party (your mother gave you her diamond ring);
- Payment received for pain and suffering portion in a personal injury judgment
Warning: Separate property can lose its separate property status if you commingle it with marital property or vice versa. For example, if you re-title your separately owned condo by adding your husband as a co-owner or if you deposit the inheritance from your parents into a joint bank account with him, then that property will most likely now be considered marital property.
All other property that is acquired during the marriage is usually considered marital property regardless of which spouse owns the property or how the property is titled. Most people don’t understand this. I’ve had many clients tell me that they were not entitled to a specific asset, because it was titled in their husband’s name — such as his 401K. This is not true! This is worth repeating because it is that important. All property that is acquired during the marriage is usually considered marital property regardless of which spouse owns the property or how that property is titled.

Separate property is property that's owned separately by one spouse. Separate property isn't usually divided in a divorce; Absent some unusual circumstances, like commingling (see below), it's awarded to the owner spouse.
Separate property includes:
- property that was acquired before the marriage, for example, a savings account that you opened and funded before you were married or a car that you purchased and paid off before the marriage
- property that was inherited or was a gift to one spouse, even if the inheritance or gift happened during the marriage
- businesses owned prior to the marriage (but if both spouses added to the value of the business during the marriage, through work or investments, there may be a community value to a separate business as well)
- either spouse's pension proceeds that vested prior to marriage
- personal gifts acquired by either spouse or given to one spouse by the other (depending on state law), and
- property or income acquired after the date of separation or the date of the divorce (depending on state law).
