My wonderful wife of seven years, who has been cheating on me for about a year now, is living in some kind of alternate universe. She has pretty much destroyed our family over the past year. I have asked for advice about her here before and got some really good advice. Anyway, I come in from work today and the house has been all cleaned up. I've been doing most of this, so it's strange to see that she has done anything at all. Then I see a sales kit from a local realtor on the kitchen table. Both of our names are on the mortgage, and I have made just about every payment for as long as we have lived here, along with all the utilities. Can she do this?

She can't do it unless she has your consent, and signature.

she can get as many sales kits as she wants to get, but she can not legally sell a piece of property that has your name on it without your permision or without a court order allowing it
if she could then i would be a bilionare because i would have sold all my neighbors houses right out from under them, christmas would come more often every year, about once a week i figure
but still, she can't sell it without your permision, and the realtor should be asking you for a signature before selling or putting together any kind of contract
now about your wife, she is not living in some type of alternate universe, you are, she is living in your house and cheating on you for a year and making a mess of your life, and what do you do about it, did you kick her out, did you file for divorce, did you do anything?
now who is living in an alternate fantasyland universe
kick the ho to the curb, change the locks and file for divorce right now, not later

In order for the house to be sold since both of your names are on the mortgage she would have to have your signature. Since you found the realtor information, look for a phone number to contact them by and call them to inform them of what's going on. And most important of all, contact a Lawyer immediately. It sounds like she's planning on running out and taking all she can. A lawyer can best advise you as to what course to take and can stop her from trying to get rid of the house behind your back in legal ways.
Good Luck!

If you're currently on title and she were to sell the property, you would need to sign a Grant Deed before a notary public in order to change title to the new buyer. Your house cannot be sold, the transaction will not close without the Grant Deed. If it somehow gets signed, that is forgery and forgery is illegal. So no, she cannot sell the house without your knowledge.

no she can't; you would both have to sign the paperwork 1) to hire a realtor, 2) to accept and offer or counteroffer and 3) to sign the paperwork to sell the house.....good luck, and do believe that things will get better, I trust you are working on a divorce.....

No she can not. When things are acquired during my marriage it is 50 50. If she sales the house and make a profit you are entiltled to half of the sale.

No, she cannot as long as your name is on the deed. Call the Realtor and tell them what is going on...

no, any contract regarding the property requires 2 signatures
even the real estate listing
call the broker and report the real estate agent for fraud

If your name is on the deed, she can't. Time to get a lawyer.

She can try, but unless you sign the papers, it isn't going to happen! I think it is time for you to get a lawyer!! QUICK!!

Not if your name is on the title. She can be arrested for that.
