In most divorces, the marital home is an asset that must be considered during the property division process.  If you and your spouse can reach an equitable agreement regarding this asset that would be best as follow up matters are most likely going to be completed without any issues.  If your property division results in you being able to keep (and afford) the home, you would take the steps necessary to have the deed, mortgage, insurance, utilities, etc. into your individual name.  The award of spousal maintenance may also make keeping the house a viable option.  If not, then you need to determine how you will receive your marital equity from the property, either by sale or by being bought out by your spouse.  There are also tax considerations that affect you staying in your home.  The marital home is a significant asset and needs to be thoroughly discussed in the divorce process so you can make the best decision for your financial future.
