Ying Ting Information

Buying a house after marriage requires only one name and two people signing it when selling the house. Because the ownership of the house bought after marriage belongs to two people, and the husband and wife are joint property and have equal rights to handle it, so both parties need to sign when selling the house. When a couple buys a house after marriage, who has to divide the house after divorce?

If one party sells the property jointly owned by the couple without authorization, it is an act that they have no right to dispose of, and they can apply to the court to revoke the sale. Lin Lin reminds you that even if the property is purchased by the couple after marriage, unless they have an agreement on the property after marriage, it is still the joint property of the husband and wife in the Civil Code.
