Whose name is on title matters, but marital-property characterisation can still pull the home into the divorce estate.
On divorce, China courts and agreements divide marital property under Family Code principles; real estate needs transfer registration to implement outcomes. Foreign elements add jurisdiction complexity. The live division-of-real-estate divorce wiki stays deep — this page is the atomic map entry. Marital-property and separate-property wikis supply characterisation. Selling may be ordered or agreed. Do not move title to defeat claims casually.
