If I Give a House to My Daughter, Will Her Husband Get Half After a Divorce?

In many jurisdictions, the answer to this question depends on several factors, including:

  • Property ownership: If the house is titled in your daughter's name alone, her husband will not automatically get half of it in the event of a divorce.
  • State laws: Some states have equitable distribution laws that may allow a court to award a portion of the house to the husband, even if it is not titled in his name.
  • Prenuptial agreement: A prenuptial agreement can specify that the house is your daughter's separate property and will not be subject to division in a divorce.
  • Timing of the gift: If you give your daughter the house before she marries, it is more likely to be considered her separate property and not subject to division.

To protect your daughter's financial interests, it is advisable to:

  • Title the house in her name alone.
  • Consider a prenuptial agreement.
  • Give her the house as a gift before she marries.
