Joint Tendancy Can one person refinance without other persons approval?


What is the name of your state? Ca If two people are on a deed as Joint Tendants, and only one person is on the loan to the home, can the person who is on the the loan refinance without the other person on the deeds approval/signature. The person on the deed, but not on the loan was added to the deed about 5-6 years ago.

Sure. There is nothing wrong with this, if you can find a lender that will give such a loan. But it seems unlikely that a bank would allow this to happen, seeing as how they would have limited recourse against the borrower unless ALL of the owners are also responsible for the mortgage on the property.

EDIT: What is the relationship between the two people on the deed?

The relationship is really bad. Both live in the same home, but there is two living areas, meaning two kitchens, etc, (add on ).

What is a "joint tendancy"?

As one who grew up in the 60s, I knew folks who had that tendency. . .

What I meant by "relationship" was, are they husband and wife? Registered domestic partners? That sort of thing.

ITs actually mother/daughter. Major falling out. Daughter wants to sell the house to get out of the home, partition suit I guess, but Mother will fight it all the way.
