Whose name is the home in?

This entry describes the name on the home as the question of whose name is on the deed, the mortgage, or the rental, and what that name does and does not decide about who paid and who may stay. It notes that a name on paper is a legal fact the couple can talk about, not a verdict on who the home belongs to in feeling.

What this entry does not do

It is not legal advice about title or a mortgage, and it does not say whose name should be on the home.
