My husband bought a house on mortgage in 1993 and made sure to only have himself on the mortgage and title as his wife at the time had horrendous credit. The (now ex) wife was in charge of payments and failed to make the payments thus sending the house into foreclosure. She 'fixed' the situation by re-financing the house by forging my husband's signature, so now they are both on the mortgage. They got divorced 8 years ago, but we haven't been able to re-finance the house because it's not worth what is owed on it. (I wouldn't pay even $5,000.00 for it, myself.) The ex-wife keeps harping on him, and me, to re-finance it even though we have explained to her why we can't do it. (She's such a horrible person, ruined 2 of her kids credit ratings by using their identities and not paying bills, etc., that I have no desire to be nice to her.)
Keeping in mind that I am not on the title or the mortage, here is my question:
If my husband were to pass away before the house is paid off, would I be under any obligation to pay off the mortgage?
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
