That depends on how long it has been in your husband’s name and assuming your are still “together”.
If the house was trnasferred into your spouse’s name in the last 5 years (ie it used to be in both your names or just your name) and no money changed hands then there may be some issues.
I suggest you use the links on this page to find a trustee in your area and give them a call. If the house has always been in your spouse’s name and you are still together then it should not be affected.
