Kris Wales: Hi Karen, You have several different issues with this one: Making the payments but not being on the note for the home, and your husband being on the deed of the home. I am not sure if there is any difference in the way a foreclosure would be treated in this instance (with the passing away of the relative who signed the note) or not. You could be considered a tenant, and yet your husband is on the deed, so the interpretation may be different. What you need is good legal advice. Most first consultations are free. If you want me to send you contact information for an attorney in Macomb County please feel free to email me and I will do that for you. Good luck to you, Kris Wales Kris@Chataboutmacomb.com
