Is This Possible?(home equity question)

[Eric Johnson]

Hey BP, long story short my wife and I own a townhouse that is free and clear. However, only her name and her mothers name are on the title of the property. Q: Can I still tap into home equity lines of credit as a valid finance strategy, even if my name isn't on title? I read that I would maybe need my spouses approval (shouldn't be hard). Thanks for your time and replies, -Eric
