Can a spouse refinance a mortgage alone if the other is not working?
jasonex asked:
The situation is this. My wife and I bought a home b4 we had kids. she is now a stay-at-home mom and does not have a paying job. We want to refinance to lower the payments. Does the bank require a credit check on both spouses or is it normal that they only care about the one who has a job? Any mortgage professionals out there with the real answer? Really appreciate it. Thanks.
