Can a husband kick his wife out of their house if her name is not on the Deed, and it was purchashed before they were married?
Its possible. But more then likely there would either have to be a court order to do so or an eviction process. In a community property state then house may be designated as separate property but the spouse may be entitled to the enrichment portion of the home. So if the value went up while married then 1/2 of that given value may belong to the spouse who's name is not on the title.
Since they are married, in most area they will have to file for divorce and the court will have to order her to leave.
The house is considered the marital home. Even if she has no legal or financial interest its still the marital home and it will take a divorce decree to legally remove her.
