Answer

Taking your name off the encumbrance (which is a deed of trust, not a mortgage) requires lender consent or a refinance. You may need to talk to a family law attorney who will want to review the terms of the divorce judgment.



Answer

I agree. Your husband can't just remiove your name. The lender has to. That is not easy to accomplish unless your ex refinances or sells. It is in the Lenders descretion, depending on the documents. You can put a statement in your credit report as to the factual circumstances.
