Generally speaking property purchased during a marriage is community property. If both of your names are on the deed to the property then the court will order it to be divided. You should consult with experienced family law counsel to understand the dissolution procedures, and your rights and obligations.

I have a question about marital debt in a divorce.

Kelly Snodgrass

Divorce lawyer at Robinson & Henry, P.C.
Unfortunately, in general, just as any property or increase in value of property accrued during the marriage is marital property subject to division, so is debt.  There may be situations or factors that change your obligation on the debt, and certainly a savvy attorney can help you find any loopholes.   With $88,000 at stake, I definitely suggest you consult with an attorney.  - Kelly L. Snodgrass

How can I protect my 401K during a divorce? Also would it still be protected if I roll it over to an IRA?

Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
In Texas, all assets start with the presumption they are community property and subject to fair division during a divorce. However, it is fairly straightforward to prove, if it was the case, that the majority of a retirement account was accrued as separate property prior to marriage. If most or all of the work that vested the retirement account occurred during the marriage, however, this is a community asset suject to division. Rolling the asset into an IRA would not offer any special protection, and doing so with the intent to hide an asset would be bad.
