It depends what you mean by good idea. If you both are on the loan for the home and you are going through a divorce you are both still responsible for the payment. When people file for divorce a lot of times a bankruptcy will be filed this isn't going to be good for either one of you. If one of you gets to keep the house and the wife's name is on the loan it doesn't hurt her but it will prevent her from buying a new home until you get a loan with just your name on the loan. Because if her name is on it she is still responsible for that payment.

The time for the wife's name to be on the deed to the house is BEFORE any divorce.

It is if your giving her the house. If your the one that wants the divorce or its a mutual agreement than it would be gratious of you to hand the house to her. Especially if you have children. And even if she wants the divorce if you have children just let her keep the house not for her for the children. If you don't want her to have the house cus she cheated on you or is divorcing you and your angry and want to take the house I suggest looking up your state laws on that. The courts might make make her sell the house and split the money with you.

The time for the wife's name to go on the house is at the time of purchase.

It is all according who the house is awarded to in the divorce decree. If the wife is given the house, it should be in her name.

No, you need to get her name off of the house.
You are probably going to have to buy her share out or put it up for sale.
But once you are divorcing you never want her name on anything of yours.
You don't know what kind of trouble she will get into some time in the future and you don't want them to be able to put a lien on your house.

Well, I THINK that even if your name is on the house, she still gets half the proceeds. I mean....that's the way most divorces work. You half the property and assets.

if you are married, it doesn't matter whose name is on the house, in most states, all property is MUTUAL... so she will likely be entitled to half.
sometimes wives sign off on the house, via a quit-claim deed, but in my opinion, BOTH parties deserve to reap half of whatever was earned during a marriage.
everyone probably doesn't share my opinion, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

When you have decided to go separate ways then where is the necessity to have this bond as far as possible not.
