After I am married, am I entitled to part of the interest on his money market account or can he keep it all and reinvest?

Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
Generally income which accrues during the marriage is joint. On the other hand, if he has investment accounts which are in his own name and which accrued previous to the marriage, those accumulations would generally be separate property as well. You really need to have an attorney looked into the situation to determine your rights. As an aside, as you are not yet married yet concerned about this, I would suggest that you might rethink entering into the relationship. Such concerns do not bode well for a planned life union.

Quite likely, but need the details. She would share in the change in the market value during the marriage, which may be negative and cause a problem in getting this settled.

You could be entitled to a reimbursement claim for the funds towards the improvements and the mortgage. You would have to have receipts. If he doesnt have access to any cash to reimburse you then it would be hard to get the money.
