I'm sure his company will just say, "Sure, go right ahead".

Probably get sued for defamation. Getting fired wouldn't be as bad as the legal bills defending yourself (right or wrong). Most companies the size of even a modest regional can make an example out of dragging someone thru the legal process resulting in tens, if not hundreds of thousands of legal dollars out of pocket for them. If they got really ****ed off they could blow 100K themselves just to put you in BK and foreclosure.

Once you go down that road, you can't call a "time out" and you cannot predict where that road will take you. It may strat off looking innocent enough, but terminate in a dead end cliff without enough room to turn around.

My advice is to at least put the house in your spouses name before starting ANYTHING. At least then, you'll have a better chance of not sharing breakfast out of a paper bag with some of the less fortunate local residents.
