My husband is trying to buy his deceased grandfathers house and he and my MIL don't want my name on the title..what can I do?

Anything purchased during marriage, with community funds, or maintained by community funds, is considered a community asset if the parties later divorce. There are of course exceptions to this. If you want to have some kind of interest in this property, in the event of divorce, don't sign the quit claim. If you plan on staying married, you may want to consider opening up a discussion with your husband. It sounds like there is something going on under the surface. Has your husband said why he wants to do this? What are your concerns about him doing this? How will the down payment be made? Is there going to be a loan taken out for the property? Who will be responsible for that? You should probably get more information. I had a case similar to this, except that husband had already purchased the property and then put it in the name of his son from a prior relationship. Marital agreements are often helpful in, at minimum, opening up this discussion, and, at best, creating an agreement that everyone can live with.
