Can you answer Vicky’s question about Equity?:
My partner and I are splitting up. We own a home together. Can she take out a home equity line of credit without my signature?

No, to do any mortgages, or refinances, etc, both spouses must be present, even if they are divorced and own the home together
Not unless she forges your signature.
Not legally, no. But beware. I used to be a realtor and know that sometimes one spouse will lie and/or forge papers to sell a house or get a loan.
