Ohio Real Estate Spouse Laws


The state of transaction is Akron, Ohio. Trying to purchase my divorced parents house and have run into a snagg. According to the realitor there is a law in ohio that says no properity transaction can take place without the spouse knowing about it. My mother is re-married in the state of PA.
I am not sure I know what the problem is, but my step-father refuses to sign any papers.

Is this a valid law, is there any way around this, anything I can do to continue?
This is a low budget purchase and I can not afford an atterney, but anything anyone can suggest. Sorry about my horrible spelling.


Thank You
Dan

If both parent's names are on the deed then, both people need to sign the new deed when the property is transfered.
