Depends on your state laws and whose name the deed to the house is in. It may have to be sold considering the complications of who owns the land. Community property doesn't exist in all states.

The house should be conveyed into you and your husband's name.
If he won't do that he doesn't trust you (unless, of course he's made some other provision for your future security)
In a divorce most judges would try to give you a fair share and view a guy doing something like that poorly. A lot depends on the law of your state. Unless the father also pays for the house I could see a judge imposing a lien on the property for your interest.
I wonder what makes you ask this kind of question.

Y are you thinking of divorce. Don't be a part of your husband building a house if you are thinking of divorcing him. LET HIM BUILD HIS OWN HOUSE!! What a selfish person you are!!!! You don't deserve anything, you are already manipulating and calculating what your gonna get if you get divorced. People like you make marriage a JOKE!!!!!

It depends on what state you are in and how a judge would understand it.
If you are both on the house title then you can split the proceeds of the house. If the sell of the house inclueds the land then it is up to your X to prove that the land was seperatly owned.

Who's name is the house deed to? Is your name on the note on the house , is your name on the deed. If it is not you are entitled to nothing in most states. I know my daughter is in the same boat. His brothers have done the same thing to all of their wifes. It will only be the boys father and his son if he wishes. Check with a lawyer in your state.

If you are thinking divorce, you probably should not spend the money to build the house in the first place.

Just because you built the house doesn't make it yours. What you are paying the most money for when you do purchase a house is the property. Try to get him to see it to you two.

If Dad's name is on the house, it belongs to Dad.
Divorce or no divorce.

my guess is no
i believe that the property would be considered his fathers. unless somehow there was careful documentation of expenses and who payed it from what account. if you could prove that you payed for an amount of it i think you may be able to get reparations or something for it in the deposition.
good luck

yes. Community property. But you have to ask yourself do you want to be the type of person who takes away a propert that a father gave.
Just have him buy you out
